In PHP 8.2 and later, setting a value to an undeclared class property is
deprecated and emits a deprecation notice.
So we need to add missing class properties that still need to be declared.
Cache locking fails if the cache store supports multiple identifiers
(in core, the only two which do are cachestore_static and
cachestore_mongodb, so this is unlikely to cause severe problems).
During install/upgrade, caching is disabled. This change provides a
way to temporarily enable caching (using in-memory cache storage only)
within a specific function; caches are deleted afterwards.
Adding this to two locations improves install performance quite a lot.
Caching is not enabled during the parts of plugin installation that
can vary for individual plugins (install.php/upgrade.php) as these
might be relying on its absence, for example by making direct database
changes.
Create or update the breadcrumbs in the site administration
pages where it is required.
Highlight the corresponding site adminstration tab.
Highlight the primary nav to Site administration when user
is navigating to any of the site administration pages.
Also changed the boostnavbar so that the nodes in the secondary
navigation are not shown in the breadcrumbs when user is in site
administration page.
In certain cases where it doesn't already redirect to run the upgrade,
users could see an exception 'Unexpectedly found non-versioned cache
entry'. This change ensures the upgrade happens instead.
Adds new set_versioned and get_versioned APIs to cache, which means you can
request a specific version from cache and it will not return an outdated
version.
This is important when using multi-layer-caches where a local cache might have
an outdated version of the cache, but the shared cache has a current version.
With this feature, the content of the cache does not have to be rebuilt, as
it will automatically retrieve it from the shared cache if necessary.
I checked using a diff tool and the difference between 'get' in cache
and cache_session is only:
a) cache_session: call to check_tracked_user at the start
b) cache: Includes code to use static acceleration (but this would
not run anyway in cache_session because use_static_acceleration
returns false)
c) cache: $setaftervalidation logic is used so that it sets it slightly
later (I can't see how this would make any difference)
d) cache_session: uses functions eg get_store() instead of variables
$store; those functions aren't overridden.
This seems like a ridiculous duplication of very complicated code, so
I'm going to remove the duplication before I change it.
For cache types which mean this information can be obtained without a
significant performance cost (i.e. just by calling strlen and not
having to serialize something that wasn't serialized already),
this change calculates the size of data read from or written to cache
in each request and includes it in the perfdebug table at bottom of
output (when that is turned on).
This supports the following cache types:
* File store
* Redis (only if caching is enabled)
When we read the MUC configuration, a file which exists but is empty
will not error, but will cause all configuration to be empty.
We already perform an {{is_array()}} check on the {{$configuration}}
variable, but the default value for {{$configuration}} is an empty
array. In the case where the file exists, but is empty, no errors occur
when the file is loaded, and the initial {{$configuration}} value is
not overwritten, leading to the file being replaced with an empty copy.
\cache::make() may return a cache_disabled subclass but callers, specifically
user/lib.php:user_create_user(), invoke \cache::purge_current_user() which was
only implemented by the cache_session subclass. Added empty
\cache::purge_current_user() which subclasses can implement, i.e.
cache_session, or not, i.e. cache_disabled.
The current logic in the cache_session::check_tracked_user() is not
right. We must always set the current session id. A typical use case is
when the cache instance is instantiated for a not logged in user. We
can't let the sessionid property null in that case as it forms an
important part of the parsed key.
Similarly, even if we have the same user currently loaded, we must still
set the sessionid to make sure the data will be associated with the
current PHP session. Same user (including visitors or guest users) can
access the site from different browsers and each must end up with its
own key prefix.
It is now safe to cache a reference to a cache and expect consistent results.
Changing identifiers altered cache results where a reference was
held to the cache. Identifiers have been set to be cached with
identifiers included so the caches are separate.
As a consequence of this it was identified that invalidation events
and identifiers don't easily work together as an event can't determine
which identifiers should be used for cache invalidation. So invalidation
events have been made incompatible with identifiers being set. No core
code used this combination as it's not possible to understand any expected
behaviour.
Event invalidation for application and session caches was centralised to the same
location. The only difference was the name of the lastinvalidation variable. This
improves support and consistency of invalidation code.
Previously a purge_store was only purging caches but it was leaving a
reference to the store instance for the cache definition.
As a result, the cache was never cleared away correctly and, in cases
where the cache store makes a TCP connection to a backend system, the
number of open sockets was increasing for each store instance.
After a complete purge, as found in the unit test reset, the cache
definitions should be both purged and removed.
This change should also lead to a drop in memory consumption for unit
tests as there will no longer be references to unused definition stores.
Ensure that the cache store requirements are met prior to attempting
to instantiate a class. Many of the constructors create connections
to external services requiring the installation and availability of
classes that are specified in are_requirements_met(). If they are
not checked properly you end up with PHP Fatal errors rather than
falling back to a different store that is capabable without the
the extra classes loaded.
purge_all() and purge_by_definition() look in the configuration
for which caches are available and then creates them to purge them.
The configuration stores the values used by initialise(), not
initialise_unit_test_instance() and would therefore fail to purge
all caches if they were not purged by another means.
In the case of filestore, it's purged by unit tests, in the case
of memcache(d), it purges the whole store when a single definition
is requested.
Therefore all configuration was moved into the configuration file
during unit tests and does not have any special override codes in
the unit test infrastructure.
Static cache has a very flexible storage capability
and does not need all the checks performed on it.
Enabling dereferencing handling and multiple identifiers
removes a lot of unneeded overhead for request caches that
have many get calls.
The changes were modelled on the static acceleration changes
done in MDL-53208.
When a cachable object is store in the static cache from
the backing store, it was incorrect serialised rather than
using the wake function. This has been resolved and tests added.
During the investigation into cacheable_object, it was discovered
that set_identifiers never removes identifiers when you call it,
so set_identifiers(array('a')) and set_identifiers(array('b')) really
resulted in array('a','b') as the identifiers rather than 'b'.
The fix for this issue depends on the set_identifiers fix and
they have been coupled together as a result.
