EAV Config Cache

[davidhiendl]

Description (*)

Cache EAV entity and attributes as well as complementary data like store labels and attribute set information. This will eliminate several database queries per request and replace them with a single cache request.

Manual testing scenarios (*)

TBD, probably lots in addition to tests

@luigifab It's mostly done, there is maybe one or two small improvements but they may break stuff so I will hold off on them for now.

Thanks! I applied, and for now, I have, (I haven't investigated yet, I will do):

• Invalid attribute requested: url on product page: this is us ->addAttributeToSelect(['name', 'url'])
• Warning: Undefined array key 2 in app/code/core/Mage/Eav/Model/Config.php on line 488 on home page: fixed with latest changes

• The 1st error I cannot reproduce. Is that with a default openmage installation (no custom modules/theme)? Because I didn't have those when testing.
• The 2nd error is an oversight for the fallback resolve of entity attributes when there is no store_id/attribute_set_id specified.

After some minors adjustments I think this is ready for testing by someone else than me. I've already started testing it in a real shop (staging environment only so far) without any issues.

[fballiano]

since we're releasing a "rc1" version, if we don't do this now...

I forgot some comments ago: before this PR, you can ->addAttributeToSelect('test') when test product attribute does not exist, now you can't:

I found a new bug (perhaps it's only me, perhaps this is other PR that I also use... I don't searched yet).

• Go to customer edit page in backend (I have multiple store views, one website, and customer/account_share/scope is per website).
• Clear all cache.
• Refresh the page.

I have (with OpenMage 20.1.0-rc1 and PHP 8.2):

Cannot call addStoreLabel for different store views on the same collection

I will create a follow-up PR for the non-existent attribute, that's definitely a bug and will cause problems. I will take a look at the other problem after that, but I can't reproduce it just yet.

[darinda]

i can confirm the Exception(Cannot call addStoreLabel for different store views on the same collection) appearing in the backend when viewing a placed order ([..]sales_order/view/order_id/%orderID%) and when the caches are purged.

It happens with OpenMage 20.1.0-rc1 and PHP 8.0 as well as PHP 8.1. Didn't test 8.2 yet.

[davidhiendl]

Okay, I figured out the reason. It's because Mage_Eav_Model_Entity_Type::getAttributeCollection re-uses the same collection. I'm testing a rewrite of this method right now and will submit another followup PR shortly.

[luigifab]

With #2044 and #3057, I approve.
For us it works so good with PHP 8.0 and 8.2.

This PR requires revision because it introduced two issues that we reported today. IT is possible that find more.
