As Brion points out in <https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=29747#c7>, the shared memory functions are very buggy. In fact, eAccelerator has disabled the shared memory functions by default for awhile now. I didn't touch APC, XCache or WinCache, but I imagine they suffer from the same problems.
** Made addAutopromoteOnceGroups() put in a user rights log entry
** Added APCOND_ISBOT cond to autopromote and updated some docs
* FlaggedRevs:
** (bug 24948) Made $wgFlaggedRevsAutopromote a wrapper around $wgAutopromoteOnce and removed maybeMakeEditor()/recordDemote() (uses r90749)
** Split off new efSetFlaggedRevsOldAutopromoteConfig function
** Removed calls to FlaggedRevs class in setup function to avoid overhead
** Made cache keys in checkAutoPromoteCond() properly unique
** Made wasPreviouslyBlocked() protected and tweaked editSpacingCheck() param order
* MW_MATH_* constants are now defined in Math extension
* Language::getMathNames() is removed
* mathNames section in message files is removed
* A hardcoded preference override in refreshLinks moved to MaintenanceRefreshLinksInit hook
* Work around HipHop issue 314 (volatile broken) and issue 308 (no compilation detection) by adding some large and ugly compilation detection code to WebStart.php and doMaintenance.php.
* Provide an MW_COMPILED constant which can be used to detect compiled mode throughout the codebase.
* Introduced wfIsHipHop(), which detects either compiled or interpreted mode. Used this to work around unusual eval() return value in eval.php.
* Work around lack of ini_get() in Maintenance.php, by duplicating wfIsHipHop().
* In Maintenance::shouldExecute(), accept "include" as an inclusion function name, since all kinds of inclusion give this string in HipHop.
* Introduced new class MWInit, which provides some static functions in the pre-autoloader environment.
* Introduced MWInit::compiledPath(), which provides a relative path for invoking a compiled file, and MWInit::interpretedPath(), which provides an absolute path for interpreting a PHP file. Used these new functions in the appropriate places.
* When we are running compiled code, don't include files which would generate duplicate class, function or constant definitions. Documented the new requirements on the contents of Defines.php and UtfNormalDefines.php.
* In HipHop compiled mode, it's not possible to have executable code in the same file as a class definition.
** Moved MimeMagic initialisation to the constructor.
** Moved Namespace.php global variable initialisation to Setup.php.
** Moved MemcachedSessions.php initialisation to the caller in GlobalFunctions.php.
** Moved Sanitizer.php constants and global variables to static class members. Introduced an accessor function for the attribs regex, as a new place to put code formerly at file level.
** Moved Language.php initialisation of $wgLanguageNames to Language::getLanguageNames(). Removed the global variable, marked "private" since forever.
* In two places: don't use error_log() with type=3 to append to a file, HipHop doesn't support it. Use file_put_contents() with FILE_APPEND instead.
* Work around the terrible breakage of class_exists() by using MWInit::classExists() instead in various places. In WebInstaller::getPageByName(), the class_exists() was marked with a fixme comment already, so I replaced it with an autoloader solution.
Patch from Derk-Jan Hartman of which he writes:
I figured adding kml support would be a breeze, but I had not
counted on the brain dead browser that is IE6.
Unfortunately, kml contains the element <heading, which triggers
the protection in detectScript() that protects from uploads that
IE6 might mistake for HTML. It triggers on "<head" not sure if we
can work around this, but Tim will know.
DB2: New LIST_SET_PREPARED mode for DatabaseIbm_db2::makeList() that handles ? tokens in prepared UPDATE statement
DB2: General fixes for DB2 database schema
DB2: Factored out foreign key definitions into foreignkeys.sql so that more can be added down the line without messing with the main schema
DB2: Better limit and offset support
* Add $wgRemoveGroups as a means of restricting a group's rights. The syntax is identical to $wgGroupPermissions, but users in these groups will have these rights stripped from them.
* Modify Special:ListGroupRights so that it displays revoked permissions as well (the display of assigned vs. revoked is changeable via css).
* Bump $wgStyleVersion
This step simply defines the new constants NS_FILE and NS_FILE_TALK, retaining NS_IMAGE and NS_IMAGE_TALK as aliases, and makes them usable for export (which seems to be the only part of core that uses the NS_* names as strings).
The second step should be a global search-and-replace across core (other than Defines.php and Export.php). I've already tried this locally, and there seem to be no problems. This step should not touch extensions.
The third, optional step would be updating at least some extensions to use the new constant names as well. This would generally require prepending the following compatibility snippet to the main extension file:
// The names NS_FILE and NS_FILE_TALK are new in MediaWiki v1.14
if( !defined('NS_FILE') || !defined('NS_FILE_TALK') ) {
define('NS_FILE', NS_IMAGE);
define('NS_FILE_TALK', NS_IMAGE_TALK);
}
Doxygen documentation update:
* Changed alls @addtogroup to @ingroup. @addtogroup adds the comment to the group description, but doesn't add the file, class, function, ... to the group like @ingroup does. See for example http://svn.wikimedia.org/doc/group__SpecialPage.html where it's impossible to see related files, classes, ... that should belong to that group.
* Added @file to file description, it seems that it should be explicitely decalred for file descriptions, otherwise doxygen will think that the comment document the first class, variabled, function, ... that is in that file.
* Removed some empty comments
* Removed some ?>
Added following groups:
* ExternalStorage
* JobQueue
* MaintenanceLanguage
One more thing: there are still a lot of warnings when generating the doc.
Moved them out to a separate file in the library which can be cleanly included from both places for transparent happiness.
A fresh rebuild & test of UtfNormal data via 'make test' now works fine.
* Fixed #tag behaviour in preprocess()
* Fixed #tag quote stripping regex
* Made MessageCache::getMessage() never transform its result, that is now left up to the caller.
* A few other minor changes
* Mark private methods private using a keyword.
* Reject arrays with count == 2: these will fail when you do array_slice( ... , 1 ).
* Treat xor consistent with the other operations: if there's only one parameter the result should just evaluate that, not always return false; and any number of parameters should be allowed.
* Fail fast on bad input: throw an exception if Autopromote encounters a condition it can't understand (after asking extensions).
* Code documentation! There were five lines of comments in the original commit.
* APCONDS_INGROUPS is not used, or for that matter defined.
* Editcount should use >=, not >, for consistency with past behavior and intuitiveness.
* "autopromoteUser" sounds like it's actually promoting the user somehow. Renamed the function to getAutopromoteGroups.
* Make sure we don't return the same group more than once, when we're returning a group. Probably not going to hurt, but may as well be clean.
* Made it possible to configure the parser class being used, via $wgParserConf.
* Moved defines from the top of Parser.php to either class constants or Defines.php
* Added Parser_DiffTest, a differential parser class for regression testing
* Added Parser_OldPP, a parser class which operates like the parser before this commit. I made one breaking change: a bugfix to avoid losing whitespace when adding MWTEMPLATESECTION markers.
* Made internal tidy work with PHP 5
* Added the ability to supply a hook for template fetching via ParserOptions. This is handy for testing.
* Updated parserTests.txt to account for the various breaking changes I made. Removed a few parser tests that no longer test for anything useful.
* Added support for configuration of an arbitrary number of commons-style file repositories.
* Split Image.php into filerepo/File.php and filerepo/LocalFile.php
* Renamed Image::getImagePath() to File::getPath()
* Added initial support for timestamp-based file fetching (OldLocalFile), to be expanded upon by aaron.
* Changed the interface for Image/File object creation: use wfFindFile() or wfLocalFile() depending on semantics
* ImageGallery::add() now accepts a title object as the first parameter
* Moved file handling operations on upload from SpecialUpload to File
* Removed path-related functions from ImageFunctions.php. Removed static path accessors from File.
* Added a Content-Disposition header to thumb.php output
* Improved thumb.php error handling
* Updated the unit test suite to kind of partially work with modern computers. RunTests.php doesn't work just yet. Fixed an actual regression that the test suite detected -- moved some defines to Defines.php where they will be loaded consistently.
