As documented in https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.stat.php#refsect1-function.stat-returnvalues:
> On Windows, as of PHP 7.4.0, this is the identifier associated with the file, which is a 64-bit unsigned integer, so may overflow. Previously, it was always 0.

It appears that fileinode shares the same underlying implementation.

On the linux kernel, COW filesystems like BTRFS, BcacheFS, etc Inode numbers are not usable to determine if something is the same file.
This is intentional.
