If the `VT_ARRAY` is empty, i.e. its upperbound is less than its lower
bound, we must not call `php_com_safearray_get_elem()`, because that
function throws in this case.
variant objects have no (declared) properties, so the `get_properties`
handlers returns a pointer to constant storage for efficiency reasons.
This pointer must not be returned from the `get_gc` handler, though;
instead we set up an own `get_gc` handler and return NULL from it, to
signal that there are no properties to collect.
Because a `HRESULT` is a `LONG`[1], no special treatment is required on
x86 platforms to get appropriate values. On x64 platforms we prefer
positive values, what we could accomplish by casting the `HRESULT`
value to `ULONG` and then to `zend_long`, but since the current
behavior is correct and the performance improvement is negligible, we
defer that to master.

We now store the pointer payload and the type mask separately. This
is in preparation for union types, where we will be using both at
the same time.
To avoid increasing the size of arginfo structures, the
pass_by_reference and is_variadic fields are now stored as part of
the type_mask (8-bit are reserved for custom use).
Different types of pointer payloads are distinguished based on bits
in the type_mask.
`write_dimension` object handlers have to be able to handle `NULL`
`offset`s; for now we simply throw an exception instead of following
the `NULL` pointer.
As of PHP 7.4.0, the `get_property_ptr_ptr` handler is mandatory; we
implement it to always return `NULL`, which is equivalent to not
setting the handler in former versions.
We add a portable and faster test case than what has been presented in
the bug ticket.
Use value 0 instead. To compensate we check in ReflectionParameter
allowsNull() whether the type is set at all: If it isn't, it always
allows null.
This removes a discrepancy between internal&userland functions:
For userland functions allowsNull() on untyped parameters returned
true, but for internal functions it returned false.
This switches zend_type from storing a single IS_* type code to
storing a MAY_BE_* type mask. Right now most code still assumes
that there is only a single type in the mask (or two together
with MAY_BE_NULL). But this will make it a lot simpler to introduce
union types.
An additional advantage (and why I'm doing this separately), is
that a number of special cases no longer need to be handled
separately: We can do a single mask & (1 << type) check to handle
all simple types, booleans (true|false) and null.
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.
Although TsHashTable and the according API are supposed to easily make
a HashTable thread-safe, they do not; for instance, there can be race
conditions between finding and updating entries. We therefore avoid
the usage of TsHashTable in favor of a HashTable with our own mutex
management.
The patch has been provided by krakjoe@php.net; I only did some minor
fixes and tweaks.
Now that set() is gone, there is little point in keeping get(), as
it is essentially just a different way of writing cast_object()
now.
Closes GH-4202.
