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.
This is one of the last old and odd deprecated settings we still have in PHP, it was never fully implemented in all the database extensions and should probably have been gone back in 5.4, along with safe_mode. Although if my memory strikes me right, mysql was also supporting it back then, but not mysqli.
So far only interbase was supporting this feature, and the removal of it causes two effects for interbase:
- CREATE DATABASE is now allowed no matter
- The default database set by php.ini (ibase.default_db) is no longer forced

TLS is already used in TSRM, the way exporting the tsrm cache through
a thread local variable is not portable. Additionally, the current
patch suffers from bugs which are hard to find, but prevent it to
be worky with apache. What is done here is mainly uses the idea
from the RFC patch, but
- __thread variable is removed
- offset math and declarations are removed
- extra macros and definitions are removed
What is done merely is
- use an inline function to access the tsrm cache. The function uses
the portable tsrm_tls_get macro which is cheap
- all the TSRM_* macros are set to placebo. Thus this opens the way
remove them later
Except that, the logic is old. TSRMLS_FETCH will have to be done once
per thread, then tsrm_get_ls_cache() can be used. Things seeming to be
worky are cli, cli server and apache. I also tried to enable bz2
shared and it has worked out of the box. The change is yet minimal
diffing to the current master bus is a worky start, IMHO. Though will
have to recheck the other previously done SAPIs - embed and cgi.
The offsets can be added to the tsrm_resource_type struct, then
it'll not be needed to declare them in the userspace. Even the
"done" member type can be changed to int16 or smaller, then adding
the offset as int16 will not change the struct size. As well on the
todo might be removing the hashed storage, thread_id != thread_id and
linked list logic in favour of the explicit TLS operations.
Added a new configuration directive which allows it to change the
temporary directory, the default behavior is unchanged.
This is a useful option if you use all/some hosts inside of one .ini file
with sections and want to change the temp dir per user (maybe it's not
allowed to write outside the users home directory). Since the TMPDIR
variable affects the whole php that way can not be used for this scenario.
