Description
Description
The following code:
It's unclear what exactly the difference between opcache.revalidate_path and opcache.use_cwd is and it seems they're noop (in CLI?)?
Assuming php.ini has: include_path=/dev/null
/foo/safe.php
/bar/safe.php
<?php
function run() {
echo __FILE__;
}
/foo/x.php
/bar/y.php
<?php
include 'safe.php';
/test.php
<?php
require __DIR__ . '/foo/x.php';
require __DIR__ . '/bar/y.php';
run();
php -dopcache.enable_cli=1 -dopcache.revalidate_path=0 -dopcache.use_cwd=0 test.php
Resulted in this output:
Cannot redeclare run()
But I expected this output instead:
/foo/safe.php
Changing /foo/x.php or /bar/y.php to
<?php
opcache_compile_file('safe.php');
has the same issue too.
According to https://github.com/php/php-src/issues/17769#issuecomment-2682719493 this shouldn't result in a fatal, because the provided path is the same for both, so it shouldn't even attempt to load the other
Also it's not entirely clear what the difference between these 2 directives actually is, based on a practical example.
