#33041 [Opn->Fbk]: Broken pipe on file_get_contents with HTTP handler causes 100% CPU loop

ID: 33041 Updated by: sniper@php.net Reported By: arachnid at notdot dot net -Status: Open +Status: Feedback Bug Type: Performance problem Operating System: Linux (Gentoo) PHP Version: 5.0.3 New Comment: 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 Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-05-16 11:52:06] arachnid at notdot dot net I didn't figure an example script would be particularaly useful, as the behaviour described requires the connection to stall or be reset while file_get_contents is running. An example script would simply consist of $data = file_get_contents('http://example.com/a.big.file'); and breaking the connection partway through downloading said file. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-05-16 10:51:24] tony2001@php.net Thank you for this bug report. To properly diagnose the problem, we need a short but complete example script to be able to reproduce this bug ourselves. A proper reproducing script starts with <?php and ends with ?>, is max. 10-20 lines long and does not require any external resources such as databases, etc. If possible, make the script source available online and provide an URL to it here. Try to avoid embedding huge scripts into the report. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-05-16 09:41:00] arachnid at notdot dot net Description: ------------ Using file_get_contents with an HTTP url causes PHP (CLI, at least) to go into a 100% CPU loop if the connection breaks. Since there's no timeout context parameter, this persists indefinitely. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=33041&edit=1
