We mark symlink_link_linkinfo_is_link_error2.phpt as XFAIL on Windows
ZTS. Several Windows API file system functions ignore trailing spaces
in absolute filenames after the final directory separator, which causes
`link(' ', $link)` to actually call `CreateHardLink()` which then
fails, because linking folders is not supported. However, with NTS
builds (as well as on other systems), the $target is found to not
exist, so the function fails without actually attempting to create the
link. This needs further investigation.
We modify _basic1.phpt so it runs on Windows as well. The other test
cases hit the issue that `readlink()` fails normally for regular files,
but succeeds on Windows[1]. Therefore, we split these tests, but still
fix the skip reasons.

Most of these have been skipped on Windows for no good reason (`lstat`
is available there as of PHP 4). Several others would only fail,
because the `blksize` and `blocks` elements are always `-1` on Windows,
which can easily be fixed by using `%i` format specifiers instead of
`%d`.
If the current character is a line break character, it cannot be a tab
or space character, so we would always fail with an invalid sequence
error. Obviously, these `scan_stat == 4` conditions are meant to be
exclusive.
Furthermore, if `in_pp == NULL || in_left_p == NULL` is true, we hit a
segfault if we are not returning right away. Obviously, the additional
constraints don't make sense, so we remove them.
This is a funny one. I discovered that lstat_stat_variation10.phpt was failing every
now and again when the PHP test suite was run on my dev PC. The output from the failing
test showed that the atime (access time) of the directory created in the test was changing
between these lines:
$old_stat = stat($dirname);
clearstatcache();
sleep(1);
var_dump( is_dir($dirname) );
$new_stat = stat($dirname);
Could is_dir() be accessing the directory and changing the atime? strace showed that is_dir
was only issuing a single stat() syscall. Could stat() change the atime? No, no, that would
just be perverse. Nobody would be stupid enough to implement the kernel in that way.
Checked the kernel source, found that the function called when atime needs to be updated
appears to be touch_atime(). Broke out the BCC kernel tracing tools and ran this one
while running the flaky test case in a loop:
sudo trace -I<kernel src dir>/include/linux/path.h -I<same>/include/linux/dcache.h 'touch_atime(struct path *path) "%s", path->dentry->d_name.name'
Inspecting the results showed that something called "git_thread" was occcasionally updating
the atime on the directory in question!! What on earth...???
The PID shown by trace revealed that this was a background thread for Sublime Text 3.
Sublime now has git integration and shows when there are untracked or modified files. It
seems that it uses a background thread to regularly scan the project directory and look
for new and modified files. This was causing the atime to change.
Even though other developers may not be running ST3, there are any number of reasons why
a background process might recurse through various directories and could cause the atime
to change unexpectedly. Therefore, update the test case so it doesn't fail in such cases.
Closes GH-5553.
Partially reverts 846b647953: instead of
throwing, this skips uninitialized typed properties when serializing objects.
This makes serialize with __sleep() behave the same as serialize()
without __sleep().
As in the non-__sleep() case, unserialize(serialize($x)) identity
may not be preserved due to replacement of uninitialized/unset
properties with default values. Fixing this will require changes to
the serialization format.
Closes GH-5396.
When ArrayObject is round-tripped through serialize() and unserialize(),
it forgets any iterator class name which was set using ::setIteratorClass().
Fix that.
It seems like on many filesystems nlink for directories is the
number of subdirectories (plus two, due to . and ..). However,
this is not a POSIX requirement, and some filesystems don't
implement it this way. This seems to be the case for whatever is
used on the Travis AArch64 builders now.
