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.
RFC: https://wiki.php.net/rfc/null_coalesce_equal_operator
$a ??= $b is $a ?? ($a = $b), with the difference that $a is only
evaluated once, to the degree that this is possible. In particular
in $a[foo()] ?? $b function foo() is only ever called once.
However, the variable access themselves will be reevaluated.
Instead of interleaving creation of live-ranges with the main
compiler code, compute them in a separate pass over the opcodes
as part of pass_two. Additionally, do not keep live ranges
synchronized during optimization in opcache and instead use the
same mechanism to recompute them after optimization.
Add MUL back to the list and instead make the entire optimization
depend on IGNORE_OVERLOADING, which is there exactly so we can make
these kinds of assumptions.
The cache size could be off by 4, if we're on a 32-bit system and
the slot had to be bumped for alignment reasons.
I wasn't able to reproduce the issue reported in bug #77287, but I
think this might be the cause.
Correctly handle the case of duplicate predecessors, by removing the
duplicate predecessor and corresponding phi node operands.
For the future, it would be better to instead allow duplicate
predecessors and avoid this kind of fragile code...
