Summary: is_dir() returns false on cifs mounted share
Status: Bogus
Type: Bug
Package: Directory function related
Operating System: Linux
PHP Version: Irrelevant
New Comment:
I just found a blog post (which I had to dredge out of the google cache)
where someone figured this out. The CIFS mount is now apparently using
the serverino option by default. In the case of Windows shares this
appears to be resulting in huge inode numbers which are causing is_dir()
to report false. Using the noserverino option prevents this. Scary
stuff.

I have to agree with the original poster. Running php 5.2.13 Under
Gentoo I have problems with is_dir() on CIFS shares with 2.6.31 and
2.6.32. On a machine I have running 2.6.30 I don't see the issue.
Here's a CIFS mounted directory that reports is_dir() as false even
though chdir() reports true:
php -r 'var_dump(is_dir("/home/tom/mount/sql"));'
bool(false)
php -r 'var_dump(chdir("/home/tom/mount/sql"));'
bool(true)
Here's the equivalent in perl that reports true:
perl -e '(-d "/home/tom/mount/sql") && print "OK\n"'
OK
ls -ald /home/tom/mount/sql
drwxr-xr-x 1 tom tom 0 Apr 28 2008 /home/tom/mount/sql
That's a windows share mounted as administrator of the windows machine.
While this may be caused somehow by CIFS changes in the kernel, there
truely is something ugly going on here and it's caused me some serious
problems.

I'm sure PHP doesn't affect any of system functions, including stat().
You get what your stat() returns -> not PHP problem.

Description:
------------
I upgraded my kernel to 2.6.31 (stable) and has php-5.2.12 (stable),
but
php function is_dir() returns false for folder on my cifs mounted
share.
strace php -r 'var_dump(is_dir("/path_to_mounted_folder/"));'
...
stat64("/path_to_mounted_folder/", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0755, st_size=32768,
...}) = 0
gettimeofday({1269602972, 30466}, NULL) = 0
write(1, "bool(false)\n", 12bool(false)
) = 12
...
Test script:
---------------
php -r 'var_dump(is_dir("/path_to_mounted_folder/"));'
Expected result:
----------------
bool(true)
Actual result:
--------------
bool(false)
