This article will take you to understand the objects in PHP 7 and PHP 5, and compare them to see the differences between them!
The classes, interfaces, and traits in PHP are all implemented with the zend_class_entry structure at the bottom layer
struct _zend_class_entry {
char type;
const char *name;
zend_uint name_length;
struct _zend_class_entry *parent;
int refcount;
zend_uint ce_flags;
HashTable function_table;
HashTable properties_info;
zval **default_properties_table;
zval **default_static_members_table;
zval **static_members_table;
HashTable constants_table;

union _zend_function *__callstatic;
union _zend_function *__tostring;
union _zend_function *serialize_func;
union _zend_function *unserialize_func;

zend_object_value (*create_object)(zend_class_entry *class_type TSRMLS_DC);

union {
struct {
const char *filename;
zend_uint line_start;
zend_uint line_end;
const char *doc_comment;
zend_uint doc_comment_len;
} user;
struct {
const struct _zend_function_entry *builtin_functions;
struct _zend_module_entry *module;
} internal;
} info;
};The zend_class_entry structure contains a large number of pointers and hashtables, which causes the structure itself to occupy a large amount of memory space. In addition, the pointers in the structure need to allocate corresponding memory space separately, which will consume some memory space.
The so-called developer-defined classes are classes defined using the PHP language, and PHP Internally defined classes refer to classes defined in PHP source code or classes defined in PHP extensions. The most essential difference between the two is the life cycledifferent:
In order to save memory space, do not define some classes in the code that are not actually used. You can use autoload to shield these classes that are not actually used, because autoload only loads and parses a class when it is used, but this will delay the parsing and loading process of the class from the compilation stage of the code to the execution of the code. stage, affecting performance
It should also be noted that even if the OPCache extension is turned on, the developer's customized class will still be parsed and loaded with the arrival of the request, and destroyed with the completion of the request. OPCache just Improved the speed of these two stages
if (EG(full_tables_cleanup)) {
zend_hash_reverse_apply(EG(function_table), (apply_func_t) clean_non_persistent_function_full TSRMLS_CC);
zend_hash_reverse_apply(EG(class_table), (apply_func_t) clean_non_persistent_class_full TSRMLS_CC);
} else {
zend_hash_reverse_apply(EG(function_table), (apply_func_t) clean_non_persistent_function TSRMLS_CC);
zend_hash_reverse_apply(EG(class_table), (apply_func_t) clean_non_persistent_class TSRMLS_CC);
}
static int clean_non_persistent_class(zend_class_entry **ce TSRMLS_DC)
{
return ((*ce)->type == ZEND_INTERNAL_CLASS) ? ZEND_HASH_APPLY_STOP : ZEND_HASH_APPLY_REMOVE;
}As you can see from the above code, the class defined within PHP will not be destroyed when the request ends. In addition, since the classes defined in PHP extensions also belong to the category of classes defined within PHP, from the perspective of saving memory space, do not open some extensions that you do not use. Because, once the extension is enabled, the classes defined in the extension will be parsed and loaded when the php-fpm process starts.
Many times, for convenience, we will customize exception by inheriting \Exception. However, since the zend_class_entry structure is very large, it consumes a lot of memory while improving convenience.
class binding pointer The most important thing is the preparation process of class data
For classes defined internally in PHP, the binding process is completed when the class is registered. This process occurs before the PHP script is run, and only occurs once during the lifetime of the entire php-fpm process.
For classes that neither inherit parent class nor implement interface nor use traits, the binding process occurs during the editing phase of PHP code and does not consume too many resources. This kind of class binding usually only requires registering the class into class_table and checking whether the class contains abstract methods but is not declared as an abstract type.
void zend_do_early_binding(TSRMLS_D) /* {{{ */
{
zend_op *opline = &CG(active_op_array)->opcodes[CG(active_op_array)->last-1];
HashTable *table;
while (opline->opcode == ZEND_TICKS && opline > CG(active_op_array)->opcodes) {
opline--;
}
switch (opline->opcode) {
case ZEND_DECLARE_FUNCTION:
if (do_bind_function(CG(active_op_array), opline, CG(function_table), 1) == FAILURE) {
return;
}
table = CG(function_table);
break;
case ZEND_DECLARE_CLASS:
if (do_bind_class(CG(active_op_array), opline, CG(class_table), 1 TSRMLS_CC) == NULL) {
return;
}
table = CG(class_table);
break;
case ZEND_DECLARE_INHERITED_CLASS:

}
case ZEND_VERIFY_ABSTRACT_CLASS:

case ZEND_ADD_TRAIT:
case ZEND_BIND_TRAITS:
/* We currently don't early-bind classes that implement interfaces */
/* Classes with traits are handled exactly the same, no early-bind here */
return;
default:
zend_error(E_COMPILE_ERROR, "Invalid binding type");
return;
}
/*... ...*/
}
void zend_verify_abstract_class(zend_class_entry *ce TSRMLS_DC)
{
zend_abstract_info ai;
if ((ce->ce_flags & ZEND_ACC_IMPLICIT_ABSTRACT_CLASS) && !(ce->ce_flags & ZEND_ACC_EXPLICIT_ABSTRACT_CLASS)) {
memset(&ai, 0, sizeof(ai));
zend_hash_apply_with_argument(&ce->function_table, (apply_func_arg_t) zend_verify_abstract_class_function, &ai TSRMLS_CC);
if (ai.cnt) {
zend_error(E_ERROR, "Class %s contains %d abstract method%s and must therefore be declared abstract or implement the remaining methods (" MAX_ABSTRACT_INFO_FMT MAX_ABSTRACT_INFO_FMT MAX_ABSTRACT_INFO_FMT ")",
ce->name, ai.cnt,
ai.cnt > 1 ? "s" : "",

DISPLAY_ABSTRACT_FN(1),
DISPLAY_ABSTRACT_FN(2)
);
}
}
}The binding process for classes that implement interface is very complicated. The general process is as follows:
**interfaces of zend_class_entryFor the binding of classes that implement interfaces, due to the need for multiple loop traversals and checks, it usually consumes a lot of CPU resources, but it saves memory space.It should be noted that , the so-called copying is just to add 1 to the reference count of constants, attributes, and methods. In addition to incrementing the reference count of the corresponding method, it also increments the reference count of static variables defined in the method.
ZEND_API void zend_do_implement_interface(zend_class_entry *ce, zend_class_entry *iface TSRMLS_DC) { /* ... ... */ } else { if (ce->num_interfaces >= current_iface_num) { /* resize the vector if needed */ if (ce->type == ZEND_INTERNAL_CLASS) { /*对于内部定义的 class，使用 realloc 分配内存，所分配的内存在进程的生命周期中永久有效*/ ce->interfaces = (zend_class_entry **) realloc(ce->interfaces, sizeof(zend_class_entry *) * (++current_iface_num)); } else { /*对于开发者定义的 class，使用 erealloc 分配内存，所分配的内存只在请求的生命周期中有效*/ ce->interfaces = (zend_class_entry **) erealloc(ce->interfaces, sizeof(zend_class_entry *) * (++current_iface_num)); } } ce->interfaces[ce->num_interfaces++] = iface; /* Add the interface to the class */ /* Copy every constants from the interface constants table to the current class constants table */ zend_hash_merge_ex(&ce->constants_table, &iface->constants_table, (copy_ctor_func_t) zval_add_ref, sizeof(zval *), (merge_checker_func_t) do_inherit_constant_check, iface); /* Copy every methods from the interface methods table to the current class methods table */ zend_hash_merge_ex(&ce->function_table, &iface->function_table, (copy_ctor_func_t) do_inherit_method, sizeof(zend_function), (merge_checker_func_t) do_inherit_method_check, ce); do_implement_interface(ce, iface TSRMLS_CC); zend_do_inherit_interfaces(ce, iface TSRMLS_CC); } }Copy after login
At this stage, PHP postpones the binding of the interface to the code execution stage, thinking that these operations will be performed every time the request is made
对于 class 继承的绑定，过程与 interface 的绑定类似，但更为复杂。另外有一个值得注意的地方，如果 class 在绑定时已经解析到了父类，则绑定发生在代码编译阶段；否则发生在代码执行阶段。
// A 在 B 之前申明，B 的绑定发生在编译阶段
class A { }
class B extends A { }
// A 在 B 之后申明，绑定 B 时编译器无法知道 A 情况，此时 B 的绑定只能延后到代码执行时
class B extends A { }
class A { }
// 这种情况会报错：Class B doesn't exist
// 在代码执行阶段绑定 C，需要解析 B，但此时 B 有继承了 A，而 A 此时还是未知状态
class C extends B { }
class B extends A { }
class A { }如果使用 autoload，并且采用一个 class 对应一个文件的模式，则所有 class 的绑定都只会发生在代码执行阶段
方法与函数的底层数据结构均为 zend_function。PHP 编译器在编译时将方法编译并添加到 zend_class_entry 的 function_table 属性中。所以，在 PHP 代码运行时，方法已经编译完成，PHP 要做的只是通过指针找到方法并执行。

}这里需要指出的是：
typedef struct _zend_literal {
zval constant;
zend_ulong hash_value;
zend_uint cache_slot;
} zend_literal;其中，constant 记录了转为小写后的字符串，hash_value 则是预先计算好的 hash。这样就避免了 object 每次调用方法都要将方法名称转为小写并计算 hash 值。
class Foo { public function BAR() { } }
$a = new Foo;
$b = 'bar';
$a->bar(); /* good */
$a->$b(); /* bad */在上例中，在代码编译阶段，方法 BAR 被转换成 bar 并添加到 zend_class_entry 的 function_table 中。当发生方法调用时：
当对一个 class 进行实例化时，object 中的属性只是对 class 中属性的引用。这样，object 的创建操作就会相对轻量化，并且会节省一部分内存空间。
如果要对 object 中的属性进行修改，zend 引擎会单独创建一个 zval 结构，只对当前 object 的当前属性产生影响。
class 的实例化对应的会在底层创建一个 zend_obejct 数据结构，新创建的 object 会注册到 zend_objects_store 中。zend_objects_store 是一个全局的 object 注册表，同一个对象在该注册表中只能注册一次。
typedef struct _zend_object {
zend_class_entry *ce;

retval.handlers = &std_object_handlers;
return retval;
}将 object 注册到 zend_objects_store 中以后，将会为 object 创建属性（对相应 class 属性的引用）
ZEND_API void object_properties_init(zend_object *object, zend_class_entry *class_type)
{
int i;
if (class_type->default_properties_count) {
object->properties_table = emalloc(sizeof(zval*) * class_type->default_properties_count);
for (i = 0; i < class_type->default_properties_count; i++) {
object->properties_table[i] = class_type->default_properties_table[i];
if (class_type->default_properties_table[i]) {
#if ZTS
ALLOC_ZVAL( object->properties_table[i]);
MAKE_COPY_ZVAL(&class_type->default_properties_table[i], object->properties_table[i]);
#else
Z_ADDREF_P(object->properties_table[i]);
#endif
}
}
object->properties = NULL;
}
}需要指出的是，在创建属性时，如果是非线程安全模式的 PHP，仅仅是增加相应属性的引用计数；但如果是线程安全模式的 PHP，则需要对属性进行深度复制，将 class 的属性全部复制到 object 中的 properties_table 中。
这也说明，线程安全的 PHP 比非线程安全的 PHP 运行慢，并且更耗费内存
每个属性在底层都对应一个 zend_property_info 结构：
typedef struct _zend_property_info {
zend_uint flags;
const char *name;
int name_length;
ulong h;
int offset;
const char *doc_comment;
int doc_comment_len;
zend_class_entry *ce;
} zend_property_info;class 中声明的每个属性，在 zend_class_entry 中的 properties_table 中都有一个zend_property_info 与之相对应。properties_table 可以帮助我们快速确定一个 object 所访问的属性是否存在：
__set 方法，则使用 __set 方法写入该属性；否则会向 object 添加一个动态属性。但无论以何种方式写入该属性，写入的属性都将添加到 object 的 properties_table 中。在创建完 object 之后，只要我们不向 object 中写入新的属性或更新 object 对应的 class 中的属性的值，则 object 所占用的内存空间不会发生变化。
属性的存储/访问方式：
zend_class_entry->properties_info 中存储的是一个个的 zend_property_info。而属性的值实际以 zval 指针数组的方式存储在 zend_class_entry->default_properties_table 中。object 中动态添加的属性只会以 property_name => property_value 的形式存储在 zend_object->properties_table 中。而在创建 object 时，zend_class_entry->properties_table 中的值会被逐个传递给 zend_object->properties_table。
zend_literal->cache_slot 中存储的 int 值为 run_time_cache 中的索引 index。run_time_cache 为数组结构，index 对应的 value 为访问该属性的 object 对应的 zend_class_entry；index + 1 对应的 value 为该属性对应的 zend_property_info 。在访问属性时，如果 zend_literal->cache_slot 中的值不为空，则可以通过 zend_literal->cache_slot 快速检索得到 zend_property_info 结构；如果为空，则在检索到 zend_property_info 的信息之后会初始化 zend_literal->cache_slot。
属性名称的存储方式
private 属性："\0class_name\0property_name"
protected 属性："\0*\0property_name"
public 属性："property_name"
执行以下代码，看看输出结果
class A {
private $a = 'a';
protected $b = 'b';
public $c = 'c';
}
class B extends A {
private $a = 'aa';
protected $b = 'bb';
public $c = 'cc';
}
class C extends B {
private $a = 'aaa';
protected $b = 'bbb';
public $c = 'ccc';
}
var_dump(new C());zend_object 中 guards 的作用
guards 的作用是对 object 的重载提供递归保护。
class Foo {
public function __set($name, $value) {
$this->$name = $value;
}
}
$foo = new Foo;
$foo->bar = 'baz';
var_dump($foo->bar); 以上代码中，当为 bar 属性时会调用 __set 方法。但 $bar 属性在 Foo 中并不存在，按照常理，此时又会递归调用 __set 方法。为了避免这种递归调用，PHP 会使用 zend_guard 来判断当前是否已经处于重载方法的上下文中。
typedef struct _zend_guard {
zend_bool in_get;
zend_bool in_set;
zend_bool in_unset;
zend_bool in_isset;
zend_bool dummy; /* sizeof(zend_guard) must not be equal to sizeof(void*) */
} zend_guard;首先需要申明：object 并不是引用传递。之所以会出现 object 是引用传递的假象，原因在于我们传递给函数的参数中所存储的只是 object 在 zend_objects_store 中的 ID（handle）。通过这个 ID，我们可以在 zend_objects_store 中查找并加载真正的 object，然后访问并修改 object 中的属性。
PHP 中，函数内外是两个不同的作用域，对于同一变量，在函数内部对其修改不会影响到函数外部。但通过 object 的 ID（handle）访问并修改 object 的属性并不受此限制。
$a = 1;
function test($a) {
$a = 3;
echo $a; // 输出 3
}
test($a);
echo $a; // 输出 1同一个 object 在 zend_objects_store 中只存储一次。要向 zend_objects_store 中写入新的对象，只能通过 new 关键字、unserialize 函数、反射、clone 四种方式。
$this 在使用时会自动接管当前对象，PHP 禁止对 this 的赋值操作都会引起错误
static zend_bool opline_is_fetch_this(const zend_op *opline TSRMLS_DC)
{
if ((opline->opcode == ZEND_FETCH_W) && (opline->op1_type == IS_CONST)
&& (Z_TYPE(CONSTANT(opline->op1.constant)) == IS_STRING)
&& ((opline->extended_value & ZEND_FETCH_STATIC_MEMBER) != ZEND_FETCH_STATIC_MEMBER)
&& (Z_HASH_P(&CONSTANT(opline->op1.constant)) == THIS_HASHVAL)
&& (Z_STRLEN(CONSTANT(opline->op1.constant)) == (sizeof("this")-1))
&& !memcmp(Z_STRVAL(CONSTANT(opline->op1.constant)), "this", sizeof("this"))) {
return 1;
} else {
return 0;
}
}
/* ... ... */
if (opline_is_fetch_this(last_op TSRMLS_CC)) {
zend_error(E_COMPILE_ERROR, "Cannot re-assign $this");
}
/* ... ... */ 在 PHP 中进行方法调用时，对应执行的 OPCode 为 INIT_METHOD_CALL。以 $a->foo() 为例，在 INIT_METHOD_CALL 中，Zend 引擎知道是由 $a 发起的方法调用，所以 Zend 引擎会把 $a 的值存入全局空间。在实际执行方法调用时，对应执行的 OPCode 为 DO_FCALL。在 DO_FCALL 中，Zend 引擎会将之前存入全局空间的 $a 赋值给 $this 的指针，即 EG(This)：
if (fbc->type == ZEND_USER_FUNCTION || fbc->common.scope) {
should_change_scope = 1;
EX(current_this) = EG(This);
EX(current_scope) = EG(scope);
EX(current_called_scope) = EG(called_scope);
EG(This) = EX(object); /* fetch the object prepared in previous INIT_METHOD opcode and affect it to EG(This) */
EG(scope) = (fbc->type == ZEND_USER_FUNCTION || !EX(object)) ? fbc->common.scope : NULL;
EG(called_scope) = EX(call)->called_scope;
} 在实际执行方法体中的代码时，如果出现使用 $this 进行方法调用或属性赋值的情况，如 $this->a = 8 对应的将执行 OPCode ZEND_ASSIGN_OBJ，此时将从 EG(This) 取得 $this 的值
static zend_always_inline zval **_get_obj_zval_ptr_ptr_unused(TSRMLS_D)
{
if (EXPECTED(EG(This) != NULL)) {
return &EG(This);
} else {
zend_error_noreturn(E_ERROR, "Using $this when not in object context");
return NULL;
}
} Zend 引擎在构建方法堆栈时，$this 会被存入符号表，就像其他的变量一样。这样，当使用 $this 进行方法调用或将 $this 作为方法的参数时，Zend 引擎将从符号表中获取 $this。
if (op_array->this_var != -1 && EG(This)) {
Z_ADDREF_P(EG(This)); /* For $this pointer */
if (!EG(active_symbol_table)) {
EX_CV(op_array->this_var) = (zval **) EX_CV_NUM(execute_data, op_array->last_var + op_array->this_var);
*EX_CV(op_array->this_var) = EG(This);
} else {
if (zend_hash_add(EG(active_symbol_table), "this", sizeof("this"), &EG(This), sizeof(zval *), (void **) EX_CV_NUM(execute_data, op_array->this_var))==FAILURE) {
Z_DELREF_P(EG(This));
}
}
}最后是关于作用域的问题，当进行方法调用时，Zend 引擎会将作用域设置为 EG(scope)。EG(scope) 是 zend_class_entry 类型，也就是说，在方法中任何关于 object 的操作的作用域都是 object 对应的 class。对属性的访问控制的检查也是同样：
ZEND_API int zend_check_protected(zend_class_entry *ce, zend_class_entry *scope)
{

}正是由于上述特性，所以以下代码可以正常运行
class A
{
private $a;
public function foo(A $obj)
{
$this->a = 'foo';
$obj->a = 'bar'; /* yes, this is possible */
}
}
$a = new A;
$b = new A;
$a->foo($b);PHP 中 object 的作用域是 object 对应的 class
在 PHP 中，不要依赖 destruct 方法销毁 object。因为当 PHP 发生致命错误时，destruct 方法并不会被调用。

{
Bucket *p, *q;
IS_CONSISTENT(ht);
HASH_PROTECT_RECURSION(ht);
p = ht->pListTail;
while (p != NULL) {
int result = apply_func(p->pData TSRMLS_CC);
q = p;
p = p->pListLast;
if (result & ZEND_HASH_APPLY_REMOVE) {
zend_hash_apply_deleter(ht, q);
}
if (result & ZEND_HASH_APPLY_STOP) {
break;
}
}
HASH_UNPROTECT_RECURSION(ht);
}

{
if (Z_TYPE_PP(zv) == IS_OBJECT && Z_REFCOUNT_PP(zv) == 1) {
return ZEND_HASH_APPLY_REMOVE;
} else {
return ZEND_HASH_APPLY_KEEP;
}
}
void shutdown_destructors(TSRMLS_D)
{
zend_try {
int symbols;
do {
symbols = zend_hash_num_elements(&EG(symbol_table));
zend_hash_reverse_apply(&EG(symbol_table), (apply_func_t) zval_call_destructor TSRMLS_CC);
} while (symbols != zend_hash_num_elements(&EG(symbol_table)));
zend_objects_store_call_destructors(&EG(objects_store) TSRMLS_CC);
} zend_catch {
/* if we couldn't destruct cleanly, mark all objects as destructed anyway */
zend_objects_store_mark_destructed(&EG(objects_store) TSRMLS_CC);
} zend_end_try();
}在调用 destruct 方法时，首先会从后往前遍历整个符号表，调用所有引用计数为 1 的 object 的 destruct 方法；然后从前往后遍历全局 object store，调用每个 object 的 destruct 方法。在此过程中如果有任何错误发生，就会停止调用 destruct 方法，然后将所有 object 的 destruct 方法都标记为已调用过的状态。
class Foo { public function __destruct() { var_dump("destroyed Foo"); } }
class Bar { public function __destruct() { var_dump("destroyed Bar"); } }
// 示例 1
$a = new Foo;
$b = new Bar;
"destroyed Bar"
"destroyed Foo"
// 示例 2
$a = new Bar;
$b = new Foo;
"destroyed Foo"
"destroyed Bar"
// 示例 3
$a = new Bar;
$b = new Foo;
$c = $b; /* $b 引用计数加 1 */
"destroyed Bar"
"destroyed Foo"
// 示例 4
class Foo { public function __destruct() { var_dump("destroyed Foo"); die();} } /* notice the die() here */
class Bar { public function __destruct() { var_dump("destroyed Bar"); } }
$a = new Foo;
$a2 = $a;
$b = new Bar;
$b2 = $b;
"destroyed Foo"另外，不要在 destruct 方法中添加任何重要的代码
class Foo
{
public function __destruct() { new Foo; } /* PHP 最终将崩溃 */
}PHP 中对象的销毁分为两个阶段：首先调用 destruct 方法（zend_object_store_bucket->bucket->obj->zend_objects_store_dtor_t），然后再释放内存（zend_object_store_bucket->bucket->obj->zend_objects_free_object_storage_t）。
之所以分为两个阶段执行是因为 destruct 中执行的是用户级的代码，即 PHP 代码；而释放内存的代码在系统底层运行。释放内存会破坏 PHP 的运行环境，为了使 destruct 中的 PHP 代码能正常运行，所以分为两个阶段，这样，保证在释放内存阶段 object 已经不被使用。
与 PHP 5 相比，PHP 7 中的 object 在用户层并没有基本没有什么变化；但在底层实现上，在内存和性能方面做了一些优化。
① 首先，在 zval 中移除了之前的 zend_object_value 结构，直接嵌入了 zend_object。这样，既节省了内存空间，同时提高了通过 zval 查找 zend_object 的效率
/*PHP 7 中的 zend_object*/
struct _zend_object {
zend_refcounted gc;
uint32_t handle;
zend_class_entry *ce;
const zend_object_handlers *handlers;
HashTable *properties;
zval properties_table[1];
};
/*PHP 5 中的 zend_object_value*/
typedef struct _zend_object_value {
zend_object_handle handle;
const zend_object_handlers *handlers;
} zend_object_value;在 PHP 5 中通过 zval 访问 object，先要通过 zva 中的 zend_object_value 找到 handle，然后通过handle 在 zend_object_store 中找到 zend_object_store_bucket，然后从 bucket 中解析出 object。在 PHP 7 中，zval 中直接存储了 zend_object 的地址指针。
② 其次，properties_table 利用了 struct hack 特性，这样使得 zend_object 和 properties_table 存储在一块连续的内存空间。同时，properties_table 中直接存储了属性的 zval 结构。
③ guards 不再出现在 zend_object 中。如果 class 中定义了魔术方法（ __set、__get、__isset、__unset ），则 guards 存储在 properties_table 的第一个 slot 中；否则不存储 guards。
④ zend_object_store 及 zend_object_store_bucket 被移除，取而代之的是一个存储各个 zend_object 指针的 C 数组，handle 为数组的索引。此外，之前 bucket 中存储的 handlers 现在移入 zend_object 中；而之前 bucket 中的 dtor、free_storege、clone 现在则移入了 zend_object_handlers。
struct _zend_object_handlers {
/* offset of real object header (usually zero) */
int offset;
/* general object functions */
zend_object_free_obj_t free_obj;
zend_object_dtor_obj_t dtor_obj;
zend_object_clone_obj_t clone_obj;
/* individual object functions */
// ... 其他与 PHP 5 相同
};/*PHP 5 中的 custom_object*/
struct custom_object {
zend_object std;
my_custom_type *my_buffer;
// ...
};
/*PHP 7 中的 custom_object*/
struct custom_object {
my_custom_type *my_buffer;
// ...
zend_object std;
};由于 PHP 7 的 zend_object 中使用了 struct hack 特性来保证 zend_object 内存的连续，所以自定义 object 中的 zend_object 只能放在最后。而 zval 中存储的只能是 zend_object，为了能通过 zend_object 顺利解析出 custom_object ，在 zend_object 的 handlers 中记录了 offset。
