PHP 8.1 INTERNALS UPGRADE NOTES
1. Internal API changes
a. Removed Zend APIs
2. Build system changes
3. Module changes
a. ext/hash
========================
1. Internal API changes
========================
a. The following APIs have been removed from the Zend Engine:
- The spl_ce_Aggregate, spl_ce_ArrayAccess, spl_ce_Countable, spl_ce_Iterator, spl_ce_Serializable,
spl_ce_Stringable, spl_ce_Traversable alias class entries have been removed in favor of zend_ce_aggregate,
zend_ce_arrayaccess, zend_ce_countable, zend_ce_iterator, zend_ce_serializable, zend_ce_stringable,
zend_ce_traversable.
========================
2. Build system changes
========================
========================
3. Module changes
========================
a. ext/hash
- The init signatures are extended with an additional `HashTable*`
argument. The passed HT is to contain the algorithm specific
configuration. If an algorithm doesn't make use of any additional
configuration, the argument is to be marked with ZEND_ATTRIBUTE_UNUSED.
b. ext/pdo
- The "preparer" callback now accepts a zend_string* instead of
char* + size_t pair the query string. Similarly, the query_string and
active_query_string members of pdo_stmt_t are now zend_string*.
- The way in which drivers provide results has changed: Previously,
the "describer" callback populated the "pdo_type" member in the
pdo_column_data structure, and the "get_col" callback then had to return
pointers to data of appropriate type.
In PHP 8.1, the "describer" callback no longer determines the pdo_type
(and this member has been removed from pdo_column_data). Instead, the
"get_col" callback accepts a zval pointer that may be populated with a
value of arbitrary type. This gives drivers more flexibility in
determining result types (e.g. based on whether a specific integer fits
the PHP integer type) and avoid awkward juggling of temporary buffers.
As the "describer" no longer determines pdo_type, the "get_column_meta"
function is now responsible for providing this information for use by
getColumnMeta(). The type provided here does not need to match the type
returned by get_col (in fact no corresponding type might exist, e.g. for
floats). It should be the closest logical equivalent for the column type.
- The transaction, set_attribute, and preparer handler's return type
has been formalized to bool instead of int.
- The check_liveness handler's return type has been formalized to zend_return
instead of int.
- The closer, and fetch_error handlers have been voidified.
- The quoter handler now returns the quoted string as zend_string* instead
of returning a boolean, and the quoted string as a pair of out params.
Similarly the unquoted string is now a zend_string* instead of a pair of
char* and size_t length.
- The doer handler now accepts a zend_string* instead of char* + size_t
pair for the SQL statement.
- The last_id handler now returns a zend_string* instead of returning a
char* and the length as an out param, and accepts a zend_string* instead
of char* for the optional sequence/table name.
