After quite a few people reported this option enabled to be in many cases
not handy by default, it's reverted to no by default everywhere. If enabled,
it requires Valgrind dev packages, where just a few have Valgrind itself
installed or care. Still for PCRE related work this option is a must,
though will have to be turned on by hand.
Revert "fix default args for --with-pcre-valgrind"
This reverts commit 24de0fe9f4.
Revert "Enable valgrind support for PCRE by default in debug builds"
This reverts commit 850bb998d9.
HEADSUP! With PCRE 8.39 the JIT related code was changed in the way,
that additional valgrind options became almost unavoidable. Valgrind
had it already sometimes hard with JIT, now there are seem to be more
cases requiring special valgrind options.
For this reason, the new configure option --with-pcre-valgrind was
introduced. The option is development/debugging only and turns on the
Valgrind related pieces in PCRE, so then false positives are avoided
to the big part. In addition, run-tests.php was added a new valgrind
option, when the leak check is enabled and the test filepath contains
pcre.
Thus, to debug the code related to PCRE with JIT enabled, two things
would likely make sense
- configure --with-pcre-valgrind
- valgrind option --smc-check=all if run-tests.php is not used
The checks so far reveal no new issues.
The following new/revived shared modules are available now:
... MySQL (*)
... PCRE (*)
... Session
... SWF
(*) capable of using bundled library or external library
All changes:
The m4 macro PHP_EXTENSION was revamped. Uses LIB_BUILD now.
This effectively means that all extensions have to use dynlib.
ext/mysql/config.m4 was revamped.
Uses LIB_BUILD for building bundled library.
ext/pcre/config.m4 was revamped.
Uses LIB_BUILD for building bundled library.
ext/ext_skel was changed to reflect that more modules should be
compileable as shared module.
ext/Makefile.in has been simplified enormously.
Dependencies are now stored in the build tree.
Empty dependencies are not generated by buildconf anymore. They
are now dynamically created during the build process.
Implicit rules for .S were removed.
The NO_RECURSION feature was removed.
"libs.mk" has been added to all cvsignore files in ext.
