#29560 [Fbk->Opn]: Listening on non-blocking socket leaks memory

ID: 29560 User updated by: info at tphnet dot com Reported By: info at tphnet dot com -Status: Feedback +Status: Open Bug Type: Sockets related Operating System: Windows XP SP1 PHP Version: 5.0.0 New Comment: Tested using: PHP 5.1.0-dev (cli) (built: Aug 8 2004 16:31:06) The memory leak is still there, as described in my previous reply.

BUT, I found a new memory leak inside the stream_socket_accept() function. If you set the third argument peername to a variable, the function will leak a little bit of memory everytime it's called. The effect is the same as with the original bug in socket_accpet(). Just modify the example in my previous reply by changing $new_connection = @stream_socket_accept($socket, 0); into $new_connection = @stream_socket_accept($socket, 0, $peer); and see what happens. In my case (Windows XP, php 5.0.0 CLI) the script starts leaking memory. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-08-07 17:55:35] info at tphnet dot com I changed to code to the following: <?php $socket = stream_socket_server('tcp://localhost:1234', $errno, $errstr); stream_set_blocking($socket, 0); while(true){ $new_connection = @stream_socket_accept($socket, 0); unset($new_connection);} ?> There is no memory leak anymore and everything is working as expected. It appears the problem is solved. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-08-07 15:07:44] wez@php.net Urgh, ignore that (clicked wrong link). The sockets extension is unmaintained. Try stream_socket_create() and fiends instead. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-08-07 14:50:11] wez@php.net Please try using this CVS snapshot: http://snaps.php.net/php5-latest.tar.gz For Windows: http://snaps.php.net/win32/php5-win32-latest.zip ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
