Description:
------------
I tried to play with preloading in OXID eShop and PHP 7.4, but Apache dies with "double free or corruption (!prev)", so i build a debugging enabled version of PHP and used the PHP built in web server, same problem.

Same problem appears in PHP 7.4.1, as well es 7.4.2RC1 (did not try 7.4.0).

We have a view dependencies, but it doesn't matter if you install those or not, PHP will die with the exact same stack trace and error whether the dependencies have been installed or not. So for the sake of simplicity, it could strip it down to a few steps.

Could be related to https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=78894

Test script:
---------------
- git clone git@github.com:OXID-eSales/oxideshop_ce.git
- add a preload.php (see below) to source/preload.php
- php -S localhost:8000 -t oxideshop_ce/source/ -d opcache.preload=oxideshop_ce/source/preload.php
- in another terminal: curl localhost:8000

Server dies with:
[Thu Jan 16 14:14:35 2020] PHP 7.4.2RC1 Development Server (http://localhost:8000) started
[Thu Jan 16 14:14:44 2020] 127.0.0.1:47674 Accepted
double free or corruption (!prev)
Aborted (core dumped)

<?php

$files= [];
$files = array_merge($files, glob('/var/www/oxideshop/source/Core/Contract/*.php'));
$files = array_merge($files, glob('/var/www/oxideshop/vendor/composer/*.php'));
$files = array_merge($files, glob('/var/www/oxideshop/vendor/composer/*/*.php'));

$files = array_merge($files, glob('/var/www/oxideshop/source/Core/Module/*.php'));
$files = array_merge($files, glob('/var/www/oxideshop/source/Application/Controller/*.php'));
$files = array_merge($files, glob('/var/www/oxideshop/source/Application/Model/*.php'));
$files = array_merge($files, glob('/var/www/oxideshop/source/Core/*.php'));

foreach ($files as $file) {
    echo $file, PHP_EOL;
    opcache_compile_file($file);
}


Expected result:
----------------
- Built in webserver should not crash
- client should (in this case) see a error message about missing vendor/autoload.php ;-)

Actual result:
--------------

I was not able to reproduce this with current 7.4 and the provided instructions. I also didn't get any relevant warnings under valgrind.

(I did adjust the paths in the preload.php file and I also copied the config.php.inc file after seeing the error message about that. I did not install vendor dependencies per your comment about that.)

Thanks Nikita for having a look.

I tried on my local workstation (Fedora 30) with compiling from source (7.4.1 and 7.4.2RC1) and also could not reproduce in this case, but i was able to reproduce this with the official PHP docker images.

You can try with 7.4.1-cli-buster image:
docker run -t -i --rm -p 8000:8000 php:7.4.1-cli-buster /bin/bash
cd /tmp
curl -L -o oxid.tar.gz https://github.com/OXID-eSales/oxideshop_ce/archive/v6.5.0.tar.gz
tar -xvzf oxid.tar.gz 
cd oxideshop_ce-6.5.0/
curl -o source/preload.php https://pastebin.com/raw/g2Pzm16r
php -n -d zend_extension=/usr/local/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20190902/opcache.so -S localhost:8000 -t source/ -d opcache.preload=source/preload.php -d opcache.preload_user=root &
curl localhost:8000

And with the 7.4.1-cli-alpine image:
docker run -t -i --rm -p 8000:8000 php:7.4.1-cli-alpine3.11 /bin/sh
cd /tmp
curl -L -o oxid.tar.gz https://github.com/OXID-eSales/oxideshop_ce/archive/v6.5.0.tar.gz
tar -xvzf oxid.tar.gz 
cd oxideshop_ce-6.5.0/
curl -o source/preload.php https://pastebin.com/raw/g2Pzm16r
php -n -d zend_extension=/usr/local/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20190902/opcache.so -S localhost:8000 -t source/ -d opcache.preload=source/preload.php -d opcache.preload_user=root &
curl localhost:8000

(the only difference is /bin/sh instead of /bin/bash)

I played around with those Dockerfiles for 7.4.1-cli-buster and 7.4.1-cli-alpine3.11, i tried removing the CFLAGS, CPPFLAGS, LDFLAGS as well as all configure options besides --enable-opcache, but it still core dumped with the same stack trace as in the original report (besides the apache part of course, but the rest is exactly the same).

As i could rule out Ubuntu (be using Fedora without a problem and Alpine having the same problem), compile flags and other modules (by not compiling and calling with php -n), the only common denominator i could find in this case is docker (or LXC).

Disclaimer: i am not very much used to debug C code, so there could be other differences as well ;-)

Could you assist me with how to proceed?
 [2020-01-17 13:06 UTC] nikic@php.net
PHP 7.4.1 has known issues with preloading, so I'm not surprised that they exhibit this issue. I'm assuming that images for 7.4.2rc1 are not available?
 [2020-01-17 13:26 UTC] dotbox at gmail dot com
I could not find official PHP 7.4.2rc1 docker images, so i build my own by cloning the repo from https://github.com/docker-library/php, then i changed the 7.4/buster/cli/Dockerfile lines 67 to 69:

-ENV PHP_VERSION 7.4.1
-ENV PHP_URL="https://www.php.net/get/php-7.4.1.tar.xz/from/this/mirror" PHP_ASC_URL="https://www.php.net/get/php-7.4.1.tar.xz.asc/from/this/mirror"
-ENV PHP_SHA256="561bb866bdd509094be00f4ece7c3543ec971c4d878645ee81437e291cffc762" PHP_MD5=""
+ENV PHP_VERSION 7.4.2RC1
+ENV PHP_URL="https://downloads.php.net/~derick/php-7.4.2RC1.tar.xz" PHP_ASC_URL=""
+ENV PHP_SHA256="" PHP_MD5=""

then i build with docker build . --tag php:dbg and then run with docker run -t -i --rm -p 8000:8000 php:dbg /bin/bash, sadly the same problem :-(

Can vote to this same case. I am using official PHP docker images and tested with PHP 7.4.1 and 7.4 and built 7.4.2 myself using same code as in 7.4.1 by just changing the download urls of PHP source. The issue persists in all the versions.

 [2020-01-24 11:12 UTC] dotbox at gmail dot com
As PHP 7.4.2 was released, although the changes between 7.4.2rc1 and 7.4.2 are minimal, I gave it a try with the new docker images available and I have the exact same segfault.

I was able to reproduce this issue outside Docker using "sudo !! -d opcache.preload_user=root".
