This introduces two new functions:
int socket_recvmsg(resource $socket, array &$msghdr, int $flags)
int socket_sendmsg(resource $socket, array $msghdr, int $flags)
The arrays representing struct msghdr follow the native counterpart
closely: structs are mapped to arrays, fields to array elements whose
key is the name of the field without the prefix (e.g. "name" instead
of "msg_name") and array are mapped to sequential numeric PHP arrays.
Right now the only type of ancillary data supported is fot the
level/type pair IPPROTO_IPV6/IPV6_PKTINFO.
I also refactored out the name resolution functions and made
sockets_strerror() a global function.
- Fixed socket_strerror.phpt
- Made php_set_sock_blocking return FAILURE on fcntl error.
- Made socket_set_block()/socket_set_nonblock() emit warning on error.
[DOC] Renable socket_create_pair() on Windows
# ext/sockets have its own implementation of socketpair(), perhaps we should move it
# to the core. This will make stream_socket_pair() available on Windows aswell
- This solves alot of platform compatibility problems
- The possible security issue of allocating an incredibly large vector
pool is prevented
- They are of little to no benefit in a high level language
- 99% of all things done with these functions can be done using
sendto/recvfrom
- Set the global 'last_error' explicitely for functions which can't return an
error withing a single socket context (socket_create and socket_select)
- Modified socket_last_error() to return global modules last
error if no socket resource is given
- Added a couple of more E_WARNING messages in case something
goes foobar so the user isn't left alone in the dark.
Redesigned socket_recv() as outlined on php-dev
Modified socket_last_error() to no longer clear the error
Added socket_clear_error()
Fixed socket_set_nonblock()
Added socket_set_block()
Fixed a proto
Saved 1 byte of RAM : )
