It's the same with clearstatcache(), this is why you can see it comment
in the testcase. It have no influence.

Use clearstatcache() when you need to reset stat cache.

Description:
------------
readfile() and file_get_contents() returns the old contents from an
internal php cache when a symlink is modified. Or it will return the
contents of an unlinked symlink().
This problem does not accured when realpath_cache_size is 0.
With php5 on apache2, the problem also exist from 1 page to another.
(more disturbing)
Reproduced on php 5.1.1 and 5.1.2 using Ubuntu or Gentoo Linux. Linux
Kernels 2.6.11, 2.6.15...
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
define('TEST_NUMBER', 2); // 1 ou 2
define('TEST_FILE1', 'testfile1');
define('TEST_FILE2', 'testfile2');
define('TEST_LINK', 'testlink');
// inexistant function in PHP4
if(!function_exists('file_put_contents')) {
function file_put_contents($file, $content) {
$fp = fopen($file,'w');
fputs($fp, $content);
fclose($fp);
}
}
file_put_contents(TEST_FILE1, 42);
file_put_contents(TEST_FILE2, 43);
// creating the TEST_LINK, using a temp. TEST_LINK NEEDED
$uid = uniqid(time());
symlink(TEST_FILE1, TEST_LINK . $uid);
rename(TEST_LINK . $uid, TEST_LINK);
// reading this file one time NEEDED
file_get_contents(TEST_LINK);
if(TEST_NUMBER === 1) {
unlink(TEST_LINK);
$good_result = '';
}
elseif(TEST_NUMBER === 2) {
$uid = uniqid(time());
symlink(TEST_FILE2, TEST_LINK . $uid);
rename(TEST_LINK . $uid, TEST_LINK);
$good_result = file_get_contents(TEST_FILE2);
}
// sleep(2);
// clearstatcache();
$result = @file_get_contents(TEST_LINK);
echo "TEST " . TEST_NUMBER . " : " . (($result == $good_result) ?
'SUCCEED' : 'FAILED') . "\n";
echo "result : [" . $result . "] | ";
echo "expected : [" . $good_result . "]\n";
echo "php version : " . PHP_VERSION."\n";
echo "realpath_cache_size (if available) : " .
@ini_get('realpath_cache_size') . "\n";
// cleaning
@unlink(TEST_LINK);
unlink(TEST_FILE1);
unlink(TEST_FILE2);
?>
