Description:
------------
Hi,

In /main/php_open_temporary_file.c:

247#ifdef P_tmpdir
248        /* Use the standard default temporary directory. */
249        if (P_tmpdir) {
250                temporary_directory = strdup(P_tmpdir);
251                return temporary_directory;
252        }
253#endif


249        if (P_tmpdir) {
is useless due to 2 reasons:
1. it's an array, and cannot be NULL.
2. the check at line 247 should be fine as it is.


Thanks,

Patches

Closing as phpmpan said, it has the `char *` type and can be null: `P_tmpdir` has type `char*`: <https://www.gnu.org/software/libc/manual/html_node/Temporary-Files.html>.
