Hi,

yeah, reverted because i've seen there are some issues with CLI and it is definitely leaking in the main thread on any SAPI. Also this is not appropriate for the NTS builds. Have to do yet another round to collect all the cases, also in regard to #71115.

With the timeout - your code doesn't change the default ini, so it's 30 seconds. With an empty script that should never be the case, because the request should just run through and exit. But something blocks in the request, whether some lock or whatever, so then it hands 30 seconds and then gets bailed out. For Mac, there are for sure some native tools which possible would do a better job?

Thanks.

I have seen that you have reverted the patch. Did you have any more information why it fails on OS X?

But I think my segfault does not relate to the other mentioned bug, because this one was already present in PHP 5.x. (AFAIK the other bug depends on the new PHP7 zend_strings ref count...)

My current theory:
Some timer does not behave corretly and falsely detects a script timeout. (the original bug) This leads to an invalid cleanup or a double free/double cleanup. 

Unfortunately valgrind under OS X does not detect any issues... drd/helgrind detects some issues, but i haven't validated those yet and as some of them are present in linux aswell so they might be just more false positives.

@maroszek thanks for the check, a patch is now commited. I'm setting the status onto feedback as you have yet more issues.

Unfortunately I've no Mac to test it. But how it sounds like, the crash and the timeout issues are two separate things. As from your code, the requests should not be hanging but just running through, so no timeouts are expected. Though, as you've already said, Mac will use another threading library, so maybe it could condition the issue, but just a guess. You probably should debug through and check which request are not running through and why. Maybe there's a way to reproduce this on Linux as well. 

So set this to feedback, but i'd rather suggest to indeed close this one and to open another ticket for the exact timeout issue you experience. Please feel free to do so if you think it's ok.

Thanks.

It seems to fix the segfault for Debian :)
But unfortunately this does not fix the problem on OS X. 

If you look at the error message:
<b>Fatal error</b>:  Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded in <b>Unknown</b> on line <b>0</b><br />

This does seems more like a timing/signaling bug, doesn't it? The timeout should never be hit...

Do you have any chance to test this issue on OS X? Can i be of any further assistance?
