Summary: memory leak when throwing exception in custom
handler in functions
Status: Open
Type: Bug
Package: Scripting Engine problem
Operating System: Linux
PHP Version: 5.3.3
Block user comment: N
New Comment:
unset($e)ing in the catch block plugs the hole - the previous
value/exception in
$e isn't being destroyed?

Description:
------------
I encountered a similar issue to #25335 where custom error handler +
exceptions
leaks memory but only when try-catch block is in a function and looped
through
directly. I imagine there's some scope/GC issues here, and whether this
is actual
bug or limitation of PHP.
Test script:
---------------
<?
set_error_handler(function($errno, $errstr, $errfile, $errline){
throw new Exception($errstr);
});
function leak() {
while (true) {
try {
// throw new Exception(); //it doesn't leak if it's thrown
directly
1 / 0; //leaks
} catch (Exception $e) {}
echo memory_get_usage(), PHP_EOL;
}
}
leak();
/* it doesn't leak if it's outside of the function */
while (true) {
try {
1 / 0;
} catch (Exception $e) {
}
echo memory_get_usage(), PHP_EOL;
}
/* it doesn't leak if try-catch block is in a separate function */
function foo() {
$try = function(){
try {1 / 0;} catch (Exception $e) {}
};
while (true) {
$try();
echo memory_get_usage(), PHP_EOL;
}
}
foo();
Expected result:
----------------
637512
637512
637512
637512
637512
637512
...
Actual result:
--------------
639432
644272
649080
653896
658704
663512
668320
