I have been tracking down a core dump with my php extension when it is unloading some of its shared libraries. I have shared extension that is link against libexpat and will load fine if it is the only on in the php.ini. If I then load xml.so extension then my extension it works fine, but if it is my extension then xml.so it crashes while xml.so is unloading libexapt.
What I have found is the Zend Engine is unloading extension in the same order it loaded them. load: foo_bar.so load: xml.so unload: foo_bar.so unload: xml.so I believe this is wrong and think it should be in reverse order. load: foo_bar.so load: xml.so unload: xml.so unload: foo_bar.so There are two ways to fix this problem. One is to push the modules to the head of the hash, but looking at the zend_hash_add function I decided to go with the second. Second way is to destroy them in reverse order. I created a zend_hash_reverse_destroy and call that instead of zend_hash_destroy. There may be a better way to do this, but this is the quick fix for me. I have included a patch below, should I submit a bug report as well?
