hello,
when accessing a shared memory region that i don't have access to
(because of the permissions), php segfaults.
so if i have a shared memory region created by another user with key
0x123 and permissions 0600 and call shm_attach(0x123), php crashes:
<?
$shmid = shm_attach(0x123);
shm_detach(0x123);
?>
also, i know some more info concerning the bug #8985: when one
process is reading some variable from the shared memory and some other
is writing _another_ variable to the same shared memory region, the
data gets corrupted - possibly because of the reorganizing before each
shm_put_var(). while this is understandable (shm_put_var() first
removes the variable, reorganizes the region and writes the variable
back), it renders this extension almost unusable in multitasking
environments because a big global lock for the whole shared memory
region is needed.
i can supply more information if needed of course.
thanks,
Michal Vitecek
