Zend Engine unloading extension in the wrong order! (Re-post due to
no response)
I have been tracking down a core dump with my php extension when it
is unloading some of its shared libraries. I have shared extension
that is link against libexpat and will load fine if it is the only on
in the php.ini. If I then load xml.so extension then my extension it
works fine, but if it is my extension then xml.so it crashes while
xml.so is unloading libexapt.
What I have found is the Zend Engine is unloading extension in the
same order it loaded them.
load: foo_bar.so
load: xml.so
unload: foo_bar.so
unload: xml.so
I believe this is wrong and think it should be in reverse order.
load: foo_bar.so
load: xml.so
unload: xml.so
unload: foo_bar.so
There are two ways to fix this problem. One is to push the modules
to the head of the hash, but looking at the zend_hash_add function I
decided to go with the second. Second way is to destroy them in
reverse order. I created a zend_hash_reverse_destroy and call that
instead of zend_hash_destroy. There may be a better way to do this,
but this is the quick fix for me.
I have included a patch below, should I submit a bug report as well?
Thanks,
Brian
