 It should be noted that the ``ldap_connect_wallet()`` function, [[https://wiki.php.net/rfc/deprecate_functions_with_overloaded_signatures#ldap_connect|available only as of PHP 8.3]], would also be part of the deprecation, as well as other existing Oracle LDAP specific features.
+==== Deprecate passing null to readdir(), rewinddir(), and closedir()  ====
+Author: Gina Peter Banyard <girgias@php.net>
+TODO: This assumes the last open directory stream opened with <php>opendir()</php> or <php>dir()</php>
+we have deprecated such usages previous (see mysql and pgsql).
+==== Deprecate the $context parameter for finfo_buffer()  ====
+Author: Gina Peter Banyard <girgias@php.net>
+This parameter is unused, and the only reason it exists in the first place is because the implementation of it was delegated to a "god" C function that also was handingl <php>finfo_file()</php> which does use the provided context.
+As this parameter is not useful for this function it should be deprecated.
