Bug #13490 Updated: Semaphores don't release automatically

ID: 13490 Updated by: lobbin Old Summary: Semaphores don't release automatically Reported By: m@savich.ru Old Status: Feedback Status: Closed Bug Type: Semaphore related Operating System: FreeBSD 4.1.1 PHP Version: 4.0.6 New Comment: -> Closed. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-01-14 07:37:24] m@savich.ru Checked on FreeBSD 4.4 with PHP 4.1.0 - it works! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-01-14 02:29:30] lobbin@php.net Is this reproducable on 4.1.1? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-01-13 20:27:43] swm@php.net My bad. Re-opened. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-01-13 14:52:51] m@savich.ru http://www.php.net/manual/ru/function.sem-acquire.php: "After processing a request, any semaphores acquired by the process but not explicitly released will be released automatically and a warning will be generated." Therefore, it is NOT intended behaviour, because in my situation semaphores DON'T release automatically. And any failure in php script causes apache to hang up in few seconds, because semaphore is acquired by dead script and all other instances can't work. This really is bug. :-( ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-01-13 08:35:48] swm@php.net This is intended behaviour. This is how semaphores work. =) Use sem_remove() to remove semaphores. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
