From: mattias at sudac dot org Operating system: Linux PHP version: 4.3.3 PHP Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug description: Open arbitrary file descriptor with fopen
Description: ------------ On some operating systems (BSD?) it is possible to open a arbitrary file descriptor with fopen like this: fopen("/dev/fd/<fd>", "r"); But on at least Linux this fails. So here is patch that makes it possible to open fd:s by useing fopen("php://<fd>", "r"). in ext/standard/php_fopen_wrapper.c:php_stream_url_wrap_php add two lines: } else if (!strcasecmp(path, "stderr")) { fd = STDERR_FILENO; +} else + fd = atoi(path); Maybe some checks are needed. -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=26158&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (php4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26158&r=trysnapshot4 Try a CVS snapshot (php5): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26158&r=trysnapshot5 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26158&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26158&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26158&r=needtrace Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26158&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26158&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26158&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26158&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26158&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26158&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26158&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26158&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26158&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26158&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26158&r=float
