 New Comment:

I think this is unrelated to PHP and very Linux specific, I wrote a C
prgoram and run it with tcpserver on FreeBSD and Linux. On FreeBSD it
works fine, but on Linux i get this error:
open in: No such device or address
open out: No such device or address

I also found this, so maybe this is solved in Linux 2.6?

It seams to work if the file descriptor is a pipe, but it fails on
network sockets.

Example:

testfd.php:
#!/usr/local/bin/php -q
<?php

echo `ls -l /dev/fd/`;

$stdin = fopen('/dev/fd/0', 'r');
$stdout = fopen('/dev/fd/1', 'w');

?>

Server:
tcpserver 127.0.0.1 8000 ./testfd.php

If we run the script without tcpserver we get this:

Notice the difference, also notice that /dev/fd is a symlink  to
/proc/self/fd:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ls -l /dev/fd
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root           13 2001-12-21 18:29 /dev/fd ->
/proc/self/fd


This is on Debian unstable, Linux 2.4.21. I noticed this when i moved a
script from FreeBSD 4.8 to Linux.

Why does fopen("/dev/fd/x", "r") fail ?


------------------------------------------------------------------------

[2003-11-06 20:26:32] mattias at sudac dot org

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.
