RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Martin Kyral 2017-03-21 15:32:18 UTC
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1402288 +++
Happens on RHEL 6 with pcre-7.8-7.el6.x86_64 as well.

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1400267 +++

Name        : pcre-devel
Arch        : x86_64
Version     : 8.32
Release     : 15.el7_2.1
[...]
Steps to Reproduce:
1. php -r "var_dump(preg_replace('/[\\x{0000}\\x{200B}-\\x{200D}\\x{FEFF}]|\\r?\\n|\\r/u', '', 'test'));"

Actual results:
string(0) ""

Expected results:
string(4) "test"

I found it. It's because of JIT. If I request pcretest to use JIT, it matches:

$ printf '%s\n%s\n' '/[\x{0000}\x{200B}-\x{200D}\x{FEFF}]|\r?\n|\r/8W' 'test' | pcretest -s++
PCRE version 8.32 2012-11-30

From PHP side, also need to have jit enabled:

# php -n -d pcre.jit=1 -r "var_dump(PHP_VERSION, preg_replace('/[\\x{0000}\\x{200B}-\\x{200D}\\x{FEFF}]|\\r?\\n|\\r/u', '', 'test'));"
string(6) "7.0.10"
string(0) ""

# php -n -d pcre.jit=0 -r "var_dump(PHP_VERSION, preg_replace('/[\\x{0000}\\x{200B}-\\x{200D}\\x{FEFF}]|\\r?\\n|\\r/u', '', 'test'));"
string(6) "7.0.10"
string(4) "test"


BTW, our build (rh-php70) have pcre.jit=0 by default (original bug report was about a non-rh package)

Comment 1 Petr Pisar 2017-03-22 09:39:35 UTC
pcre-7.8-7.el6 does not have a JIT mode.
