Doc #66270 [NEW]: sem_get() expects an already created pack of semaphores to have 3 of them.

From: xruppen at gmail dot com Operating system: PHP version: Irrelevant Package: Documentation problem Bug Type: Documentation Problem Bug description:sem_get() expects an already created pack of semaphores to have 3 of them. Description: ------------ --- From manual page: http://www.php.net/function.sem-get --- When trying to retrieve an already created pack of SystemV semaphores (by an already running C application), sem_get apparently expects that pack to contain exactly 3 semaphores. It is NOT documented anywhere in the PHP documentation. The solution to this problem was found at these two locations : https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=61608 http://www.serverphorums.com/read.php?8,312273 It really should be documented as not only it is weird but cannot be guessed. Expected result: ---------------- The doc page of sem_get() should contain a note about that. -- Edit bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=66270&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.4): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=66270&r=trysnapshot54 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.5): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=66270&r=trysnapshot55 Try a snapshot (trunk): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=66270&r=trysnapshottrunk Fixed in SVN: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=66270&r=fixed Fixed in release: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=66270&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=66270&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=66270&r=needscript Try newer version: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=66270&r=oldversion Not developer issue: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=66270&r=support Expected behavior: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=66270&r=notwrong Not enough info: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=66270&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=66270&r=submittedtwice register_globals: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=66270&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=66270&r=php4 Daylight Savings: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=66270&r=dst IIS Stability: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=66270&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=66270&r=gnused Floating point limitations: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=66270&r=float No Zend Extensions: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=66270&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=66270&r=mysqlcfg
