The php_stream_read() and php_stream_write() functions now return
an ssize_t value, with negative results indicating failure. Functions
like fread() and fwrite() will return false in that case.
As a special case, EWOULDBLOCK and EAGAIN on non-blocking streams
should not be regarded as error conditions, and be reported as
successful zero-length reads/writes instead. The handling of EINTR
remains unclear and is internally inconsistent (e.g. some code-paths
will automatically retry on EINTR, while some won't).
I'm landing this now to make sure the stream wrapper ops API changes
make it into 7.4 -- however, if the user-facing changes turn out to
be problematic we have the option of clamping negative returns to
zero in php_stream_read() and php_stream_write() to restore the
old behavior in a relatively non-intrusive manner.
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.
The $Id$ keywords were used in Subversion where they can be substituted
with filename, last revision number change, last changed date, and last
user who changed it.
In Git this functionality is different and can be done with Git attribute
ident. These need to be defined manually for each file in the
.gitattributes file and are afterwards replaced with 40-character
hexadecimal blob object name which is based only on the particular file
contents.
This patch simplifies handling of $Id$ keywords by removing them since
they are not used anymore.
Prohibit direct update of GC_REFCOUNT(), GC_SET_REFCOUNT(), GC_ADDREF() and GC_DELREF() shoukf be instead.
Added mactros to validate reference-counting (disabled for now).
These macros are going to be used to eliminate race-condintions during reference-counting on data shared between threads.
While the case in bug #74429 is not documented and is only worky due to
an implementation bug, the strength seems to breach some real world
apps. Given this patch doesn't impact the initial security fix for
bug #74216, it is reasonable to let the apps keep working. As mentioned
in the ticket, this behavior is a subject to change in future versions
and should not be abused.
For historical reasons, fsockopen() accepts the port and hostname
separately: fsockopen('127.0.0.1', 80)
However, with the introdcution of stream transports in PHP 4.3,
it became possible to include the port in the hostname specifier:
fsockopen('127.0.0.1:80')
Or more formally: fsockopen('tcp://127.0.0.1:80')
Confusing results when these two forms are combined, however.
fsockopen('127.0.0.1:80', 443) results in fsockopen() attempting
to connect to '127.0.0.1:80:443' which any reasonable stack would
consider invalid.
Unfortunately, PHP parses the address looking for the first colon
(with special handling for IPv6, don't worry) and calls atoi()
from there. atoi() in turn, simply stops parsing at the first
non-numeric character and returns the value so far.
The end result is that the explicitly supplied port is treated
as ignored garbage, rather than producing an error.
This diff replaces atoi() with strtol() and inspects the
stop character. If additional "garbage" of any kind is found,
it fails and returns an error.
If this does not break the Unix system somehow, I'll be amazed. This should get most of it out, apologies for any errors this may cause on non-Windows ends which I cannot test atm.
