From: mario at mariomedina dot net Operating system: Linux PHP version: 5.0.0 PHP Bug Type: Reproducible crash Bug description: popen memory leak
Description: ------------ When you open a pipe with popen, work with it an then close, some bytes aren't freed, so when you do that task a lot of times you get out of memory error, (with memory limit) and php crash.... It is working with php cgi mode... I tested it on php 4.x, and 5.0.0... When you do proc_open is the same. When you open a popen and it fails then no memory leak exists. Reproduce code: --------------- <? printlog("Iniciando"); for($i=0;$i<10;$i++) { if(($fp=popen("ls","r"))==true) { printlog("Abierto"); while(!feof($fp)) $l=fgets($fp, 8192); printlog("Leido"); fflush($fp); pclose($fp); printlog("Cerrado"); unset($fp); unset($l); printlog("Liberado"); sleep(1); } } printlog("Terminando"); die(); function printlog($src) { printf("%s (%.03fkb): %s\n",date("r"), memory_get_usage()/1024, rtrim($src)); } ?> Expected result: ---------------- I expect that when pipe was closed all the memory is freed. Actual result: -------------- There are memory leak for about 200 bytes -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=29511&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (php4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29511&r=trysnapshot4 Try a CVS snapshot (php5): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29511&r=trysnapshot5 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29511&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29511&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29511&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29511&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29511&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29511&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29511&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29511&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29511&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29511&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29511&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29511&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29511&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29511&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29511&r=float
