When they exceed the max value which is on freebsd for usec 999,999, after this number it must be 1 sec and not 1,000,000 usecs. This is whats happening here, the script wants 300,000,000 usecs, which are 300 seconds. Linux doesn't care about this and accepts this number (and works fine with it). I wrote the patch and tested it on the freebsd 4.8 box, strace now shows (as expected): select(4, [3], [], [], {300, 0} Here the patch which fixes this bug: --- sockets.c.orig Tue Jul 15 08:08:02 2003 +++ sockets.c Sun Jul 20 23:01:21 2003 @@ -591,8 +591,15 @@ convert_to_long(&tmp); sec = &tmp; } - tv.tv_sec = Z_LVAL_P(sec); - tv.tv_usec = usec; + + if (usec > 999999) { + tv.tv_sec = Z_LVAL_P(sec)+(usec/1000000); + tv.tv_usec = usec%1000000; + } else { + tv.tv_sec = Z_LVAL_P(sec); + tv.tv_usec = usec; + } + tv_p = &tv; if (sec == &tmp) { ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-07-20 13:47:58] meebey@php.net I just straced the script with stream_select() and it's also getting the "Invalid argument" error msg. select(4, [3], [], [], {0, 300000000}) = -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-07-20 13:18:46] meebey@php.net I tried using fsockopen and stream_select() on the freebsd box, and it returned false, so also some error happened.
