We'd like to start using ##mixed## instead of ##var## for attribute types to be consistent with Hack. As a followup to this (once released), we would codemod all ##var## to ##mixed##.
In HHVM (and HPHPc before it) we've been piggybacking resources on the
KindOfObject machinery. At the language level, resource is considered to
be a different type than object, and there are a number of differences
in behavior between objects and resources (ex. resources don't allow for
dynamic properties, resources don't work with the clone operator, the
"(object)" cast behaves differently for resources vs. objects, etc).
Piggybacking resources on the KindOfObject machinery has some downsides.
Code that deals with KindOfObject values often needs to check if the value
is a resource and go down a different code path. This makes things harder
to maintain and harder to keep parity with Zend. Also, these extra branches
hurt performance a little, and they make it harder for the JIT to do a good
job in some cases when its generating machine code that operates on objects.
This diff prepares the code base for a new KindOfResource type by adding a
new "Resource" smart pointer type (currently a typedef for the Object smart
pointer type) and it updates the C++ code and the idl files appropriately.
This diff is essentially a cosmetic change and should not impact run time
behavior. In the next diff (part 2) we'll actually add a new KindOfResource
type, detach ResourceData from the ObjectData inheritence hierarchy, and
provide a real implementation for the Resource smart pointer type (instead
of just aliasing the Object smart pointer type).
Nothing uses it, and it means we can't as easily drop
folly::to for int-string conversions into these guys, which I'd like
to try later. (Non-base-10 conversions are probably much rarer so
it's fine to have different code, I think?)
Also removes tvCastToInt64 and ports its single callsite to cellToInt.
I plan to move the tvCastTo*InPlace to tv_conversions.h (probably
cell-based functions) in upcoming diffs.
Since TypedValue::operator= is dangerous, something like
tvTeleport is usually what you want to use, but it doesn't work with
temporary TypedValues (e.g. return values of things like make_tv or
cellAdd), because it took the arguments by pointer. This also means
we can change it to take parameters by value later without updating
callsites. This diff does the tvDup family and changes tvTeleport to
tvCopy. I'll gradually get the other ones done, but I just need these
for now to work with temporaries for changing SetOp to not use Variant
arithmetic.
Introducing `ZendParamMode` to as a idl flag. We are not consistent with zend on how they do their params for builtins. We cast to the expected data type. They do some checks, and if the checks don't pass they issue a warning and return (usually) `null`. This diff starts us down that path.
I'm introducing the param and using it in the places where we were emulating the calling convention in the `f_foo` functions. I'm going to follow up with converting as many as I can and then eventually this becomes the default. I also want this to be applied to php files in systemlib.
Many of the conversions are from https://github.com/php/php-src/blob/master/Zend/zend_API.c#L305
I noticed that directorty structure of hphp/system was a bit scattered, so
I consolidated things to reduce the total number of folders and to put
related things together with each other.
This diff moves the contents of "hphp/system/classes_hhvm" into
"hphp/system", it moves the contents of "hphp/system/lib" into
"hphp/system", moves "hphp/idl" to "hphp/system/idl", and moves the
contents of "hphp/system/globals" into "hphp/system/idl".
This is the first results from profiling callsites of
StringData::initLiteral. This diff converts a handful more
string literals to StaticString, removes overloaded Variant
comparison operators (operator==, etc), and avoids
constructing new strings in a few cases in tvCastToString
and tvCastToStringInPlace.
I was learning from @jdelong and he said that you should use
double quotes for local includes and angle brackets for library
includes. I asked why our code was the way it was, and he said he wanted
to clean it up. I beat him to it :)
Conflicts:

I've found several bugs recently due to the TypedValue plausible
check being too loose. Our DataType enum values are now sparse,
and we miss garbage that happens to fall inside the [-10, 127]
range, which is >50% of possible garbage values.
This change is mostly for FB internal organizational reasons.
Building is not effected beyond the fact that the target now
lands in hphp/hhvm/hhvm rather than src/hhvm/hhvm.
