Have each of the specialized methods for registering a constant return a
pointer to the registered constant the same way that the generic
`zend_register_constant()` function does, and use those in the generated
arginfo files to avoid needing to search for a constant that was just
registered in order to add attributes to it.
Registering the constant may happen under another name due to
lowercasing. This will cause the lookup to the constant to fail.
Instead of looking it up, just change the Zend API to return a pointer
instead.
Update to PHP-Parser 5.5.0 and add support for attributes on constants in
stubs. For now, I have only migrated over E_STRICT, once the support is in
place I'll do a larger migration of the existing deprecated constants.
In the process, fix the logic in `copy_zend_constant()` for copying attributes
when a constant is copied; just increase the reference count for the attributes
table rather than trying to duplicate the contents.
Add recursion protection when emitting deprecation warnings for class
constants, since the deprecation message can come from an attribute that is
using the same constant for the message, or otherwise result in recursion.
But, internal constants are persisted, and thus cannot have recursion
protection. Otherwise, if a user error handler triggers bailout before the
recursion flag is removed then a subsequent request (e.g. with `--repeat 2`)
would start with that flag already applied. Internal constants can presumably
be trusted not to use deprecation messages that come from recursive attributes.

We should only attempt to fetch the current filename for user constants. dl()
may attempt to register internal constants after execution has already started,
thus incorrectly linking the user file invoking dl().
See GH-16663
Allow determining the name of the file that defined a constant, when the
constant was defined in userland code via const or define(). For constants
defined by PHP core or extensions, false is returned, matching the existing
getFileName() methods on other reflection classes.

Was factored out into a dedicated method, `zend_get_class_constant_ex()`, back
in 2021 (4dcde9cf18) but instead of removing the
old logic it was just commented out. If it hasn't been needed since 2021, it
should be safe to remove.
This is a new transparent technology that eliminates overhead of PHP class inheritance.
PHP classes are compiled and cached (by opcahce) separately, however their "linking" was done at run-time - on each request. The process of "linking" may involve a number of compatibility checks and borrowing methods/properties/constants form parent and traits. This takes significant time, but the result is the same on each request.
Inheritance Cache performs "linking" for unique set of all the depending classes (parent, interfaces, traits, property types, method types involved into compatibility checks) once and stores result in opcache shared memory. As a part of the this patch, I removed limitations for immutable classes (unresolved constants, typed properties and covariant type checks). So now all classes stored in opcache are "immutable". They may be lazily loaded into process memory, if necessary, but this usually occurs just once (on first linking).
The patch shows 8% improvement on Symphony "Hello World" app.
We're starting to see a mix between uses of zend_bool and bool.
Replace all usages with the standard bool type everywhere.
Of course, zend_bool is retained as an alias.
We missed the change to make this an Error exception in PHP 8,
but at least elevate it to a warning, to avoid a notice -> exception
jump at a later time.
Voidification of Zend API which always succeeded
Use bool argument types instead of int for boolean arguments
Use bool return type for functions which return true/false (1/0)
Use zend_result return type for functions which return SUCCESS/FAILURE as they don't follow normal boolean semantics
Closes GH-6002
Internal constants can be marked as CONST_DEPRECATED, in which
case accessing them will throw a deprecation warning.
For now this is only supported on global constants, not class
constants. Complain to me if you need to deprecate a class
constant...
Closes GH-5072.
This patch removes the so called local variables defined per
file basis for certain editors to properly show tab width, and
similar settings. These are mainly used by Vim and Emacs editors
yet with recent changes the once working definitions don't work
anymore in Vim without custom plugins or additional configuration.
Neither are these settings synced across the PHP code base.
A simpler and better approach is EditorConfig and fixing code
using some code style fixing tools in the future instead.
This patch also removes the so called modelines for Vim. Modelines
allow Vim editor specifically to set some editor configuration such as
syntax highlighting, indentation style and tab width to be set in the
first line or the last 5 lines per file basis. Since the php test
files have syntax highlighting already set in most editors properly and
EditorConfig takes care of the indentation settings, this patch removes
these as well for the Vim 6.0 and newer versions.
With the removal of local variables for certain editors such as
Emacs and Vim, the footer is also probably not needed anymore when
creating extensions using ext_skel.php script.
Additionally, Vim modelines for setting php syntax and some editor
settings has been removed from some *.phpt files. All these are
mostly not relevant for phpt files neither work properly in the
middle of the file.
Access to undefined constants will now always result in an Error
exception being thrown.
This required quite a few test changes, because there were many
buggy tests that unintentionally used bareword fallback in combination
with error suppression.
The only remaining case-insensitive constants are null, true and
false, which are handled explicitly.
In the future we may convert them from constants to reserved keywords.
