Problem/Motivation

The class loader can be swapped out either manually (by editing settings.php) or since #2296009: Use APC Classloader by default (when available) automatically if APCu is present on the machine. However, the application kernel is constructed before settings.php is evaluated, and the classLoader property of the kernel gets out-of-sync if the class loader is subsequently swapped out.

Proposed resolution

Update DrupalKernel::classLoader if changed during createFromRequest().

Remaining tasks

User interface changes

API changes

This is expected to result in the same test-failures as #2389811-66: Move all the logic out of index.php (again) because the APCu class-loader should now be propagated into TestDiscovery where it causes an exception due to the type-hint against the composer class loader.

Fix TestDiscovery.

The last submitted patch, 1: 2474817-synchronize-class-loader.diff, failed testing.

Is there a way to use some interface here for type-hint?
This will not pass docs gate

I do not think so. Neither composer class loader nor the APC one from Symfony implement an interface . This just replicates changes made to DrupalKernel constructor (#2325197-15: Remove drupal_classloader()). If there is a problem with the documentation, we need to fix that in DrupalKernel also.

Thanks for the patch, but does that work for the settings.php use case as well? (which can't change the kernel class loader obviously)
