Description:
------------
In php 7.4 the function openssl_pkey_get_private on the private key listed in the test script is parsed correctly as a private key and a resource is returned.

In php 8.0 this function fails silently to parse the key and does not return a resource.

Test script:
---------------
<?php

$privateKey = <<<EOL
-----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY-----

you really hsould read the changes before major updates

https://www.php.net/releases/8.0/en.php

Opaque objects instead of resources for Curl, Gd, Sockets, OpenSSL, XMLWriter, and XML extensions

My bad, was searching for the function name and not generic openssl in the release notes.

Closed as not a bug
