Dist Fedora Esm H88
The latest PHP 8.1.8 has been released on Fedora 36, featuring a host of enhancements and bug resolutions aimed at optimizing performance.
**PHP version 8.1.8** (07 Jul 2022) **Core:** * Fixed bug [GH-8338](https://github.com/php/php-src/issues/8338) (Intel CET is disabled unintentionally)

Summary

PHP is an HTML-embedded scripting language. PHP attempts to make it

easy for developers to write dynamically generated web pages. PHP also

offers built-in database integration for several commercial and

non-commercial database management systems, so writing a

database-enabled webpage with PHP is fairly simple. The most common

use of PHP coding is probably as a replacement for CGI scripts.
