I see several issues with the patch 1) It assumes that web server (and webserver extensions) won't setup any signal handlers after PHP startup. This assumption may be wrong. 2) It is incompatible with ext/pcntl

If zend_signal() is improved (has Lucas planed to do) to allow extensions

to

use it, then pcntl can do so and become compatible with that.

Since this seems related, maybe someone ought to check this out too: http://bugs.php.net/16820 A bit "old" bug but has some relation to part below.

Hi, This new signal handling may fix this sort of things if enabled in ZTS. I think this patch may include support for ZTS too (I'm investigating how it can).

I am a bit unsure how to proceed here. Maybe Johannes is more confident with a judgement here. It seems everybody is very much looking forward to getting in this patch (with some tweaks). Now my question is, do we apply as is for alpha1? It does not seem like this patch is quite important enough to delay the release (then again one more day is not going to kill us .. if all it takes is one more day that is) Or does it make sense to introduce this change in alpha2? regards, Lukas Kahwe Smith mls@pooteeweet.org
