Infinite recursion in property hook getter in opcache preloaded trait #21770
Description
Description
The following code:
<?php
trait a {
public ?string $a = 'a' {
get => $this->a;
}
}
class b {
use a;
}
$b = new b();
echo $b->a;Resulted in this output when required inside of the file configured under php.ini opcache.preload:
Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Maximum call stack size of 8339456 bytes (zend.max_allowed_stack_size - zend.reserved_stack_size) reached. Infinite recursion? in /var/www/html/index.php:5

But I expected this output instead:

I uploaded a full repo with what I believe to be the minimal reproduction case into https://github.com/dreistromlandMf/php-trait-property-hook-getter-opcache-preload. I could reproduce this with current PHP 8.4 as well. It doesn’t seem to reproduce using the CLI, but booth mod-apache and frankenphp do reproduce this behaviour.
This does look similar to #15240, which was marked fixed in 2024.
