Ireland ... countryside

Hi folks,

Hopefully you re still enjoying relatively sunny weather, recently I have been visiting other parts of Ireland and most of the time the network was pretty feeble. Nevermind, that was the opportunity as well to be off open source contributions for a while ;-)

In the meantime, PHP is undergoing a thorough clean up for the future 8 major release, which manifest through those PR  ... Those kind of tasks are rarely interesting technically speaking but are necessary if the project in question wants to maintain a certain consistency. Indeed, some of PHP extensions were using modern coding while some others were a bit behind so here is the opportunity to make things a bit square ... To remain in language's realm here a little related discussion to FreeBSD and .NET technologies. This is the most pragmatic approach I believe and that surely works fine ; ideally the kqueue's approach instead would be beneficial also for performance matters.

In the LLVM realms, couple of little but interesting changes, here the getrandom interception ... I think it can be pretty easily made available for FreeBSD as well ... otherwise some planned improvements for clang frontend warnings  (personally interested by this particular bit). Little dream of mine if this GitHub project would be ported at least to major unixes first (if this is ever possible...) :-) but would require to rewrite DirectX layers to SDL as usual ... lot of work.

In the next couple of days, I will be back a bit on LLVM and little other ongoing little tasks I putted to a rest, in the meantime I wish you well :-)
