Symfony - load custom global functions

I have a file with some functions (polyfills for some extensions) without namespace that should be loaded and accessible globally.

Question is where to put this file (now it in "/src/AppBundle" dir) and how to load it in Symfony? Maybe some best practice or something.

File exmaple:

<?php

// functions.php

define('CONSTANT_NAME', 'constant_value');

function doSomething()
{
}

Updated: also some functions should be loaded (in a separated file) only in "dev" environment. Maybe add "include_once" in app_dev.php?

I'd put it in /src folder, maybe /src/functions.php - you can decide according to your preferences. To load it, you can change your composer.json and add files to your autoload configuration, then run composer update.

"autoload": {
    "files": ["src/functions.php"]
}

So that functions.php is required to every request.
