. stream_socket_client() - similar to fsockopen(), but more powerful.
. stream_socket_server() - Creates a server socket.
. stream_socket_accept() - Accept a client connection.
. stream_socket_get_name() - Get local or remote name of socket.
Tidy up some leaks and debug printfs.
Move more streams functions into streamsfuncs.c and streamsfuncs.h.
Main Changes:
- Implement a socket transport layer for use by all code that needs to open
some kind of "special" socket for network or IPC.
- Extensions can register (and override) transports.
- Implement ftruncate() on streams via the ioctl-alike option interface.
- Implement mmap() on streams via the ioctl-alike option interface.
- Implement generic crypto API via the ioctl-alike option interface.
(currently only supports OpenSSL, but could support other SSL toolkits,
and other crypto transport protocols).
Impact:
- tcp sockets can be overloaded by the openssl capable sockets at runtime,
removing the link-time requirement for ssl:// and https:// sockets and
streams.
- checking stream types using PHP_STREAM_IS_SOCKET is deprecated, since
there are now a range of possible socket-type streams.
Working towards:
- socket servers using the new transport layer
- mmap support under win32
- Cleaner code.
# I will be updating the win32 build to add the new files shortly
# after this commit.
Eliminate similar code from network.c.
Implement fgets equivalent at the streams level, which can detect
the mac, dos and unix line endings and handle them appropriately.
The default behaviour is unix (and dos) line endings.
An ini option to control this behaviour will follow.
# Don't forget to make clean!
# I've done some testing but would appreciate feedback from
# people with scripts/extensions that seek around a lot.
php_stream_set_option which can be used in a similar way as ioctl()
to set options for streams.
Current options include buffering and blocking support.
o Buffer control is support for stdio based streams.
o Blocking/non-blocking is supported for stdio and socket based streams.
and rename to php_connect_nonb().
Use php_connect_nonb() instead of connect() in php_hostconnect() -> timeouts
should now work in php_hostconnect().
sock streams abstraction now uses php_sockbuf as the "abstract" pointer.
