socket_accept

(PHP 4 >= 4.1.0, PHP 5, PHP 7, PHP 8)

socket_acceptAccepts a connection on a socket

Опис

socket_accept(Socket $socket): Socket|false

After the socket socket has been created using socket_create(), bound to a name with socket_bind(), and told to listen for connections with socket_listen(), this function will accept incoming connections on that socket. Once a successful connection is made, a new Socket instance is returned, which may be used for communication. If there are multiple connections queued on the socket, the first will be used. If there are no pending connections, socket_accept() will block until a connection becomes present. If socket has been made non-blocking using socket_set_blocking() or socket_set_nonblock(), false will be returned.

The Socket instance returned by socket_accept() may not be used to accept new connections. The original listening socket socket, however, remains open and may be reused.

Параметри

socket

A Socket instance created with socket_create().

Значення, що повертаються

Returns a new Socket instance on success, or false on error. The actual error code can be retrieved by calling socket_last_error(). This error code may be passed to socket_strerror() to get a textual explanation of the error.

8.0.0 On success, this function returns a Socket instance now; previously, a resource was returned.

If you want to make a daemon process that forks on each client connection, you'll find out that there's a bug in PHP. The child processes send SIGCHLD to their parent when they exit but the parent can't handle signals while it's waiting for socket_accept (blocking).

Here is a piece of code that makes a non-blocking forking server.

#!/usr/bin/php -q
<?php
/**
* Listens for requests and forks on each connection
*/

$__server_listening = true;

error_reporting(E_ALL);
set_time_limit(0);
ob_implicit_flush();
declare(
ticks = 1);

become_daemon();

/* nobody/nogroup, change to your host's uid/gid of the non-priv user */
change_identity(65534, 65534);

/* handle signals */
pcntl_signal(SIGTERM, 'sig_handler');
pcntl_signal(SIGINT, 'sig_handler');
pcntl_signal(SIGCHLD, 'sig_handler');

/* change this to your own host / port */
server_loop("127.0.0.1", 1234);

/**
* Change the identity to a non-priv user
*/
function change_identity( $uid, $gid )
{
if( !
posix_setgid( $gid ) )
{
print
"Unable to setgid to " . $gid . "!\n";
exit;
}

if( !
posix_setuid( $uid ) )
{
print
"Unable to setuid to " . $uid . "!\n";
exit;
}
}

/**
* Creates a server socket and listens for incoming client connections
* @param string $address The address to listen on
* @param int $port The port to listen on
*/
function server_loop($address, $port)
{
GLOBAL
$__server_listening;

if((
$sock = socket_create(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, 0)) < 0)
{
echo
"failed to create socket: ".socket_strerror($sock)."\n";
exit();
}

if((
$ret = socket_bind($sock, $address, $port)) < 0)
{
echo
"failed to bind socket: ".socket_strerror($ret)."\n";
exit();
}

if( (
$ret = socket_listen( $sock, 0 ) ) < 0 )
{
echo
"failed to listen to socket: ".socket_strerror($ret)."\n";
exit();
}

socket_set_nonblock($sock);

echo
"waiting for clients to connect\n";

while (
$__server_listening)
{
$connection = @socket_accept($sock);
if (
$connection === false)
{
usleep(100);
}elseif (
$connection > 0)
{
handle_client($sock, $connection);

{

$__server_listening = false;

If you want to have multiple clients on a server you will have to use non blocking.

<?php

$clients
= array();
$socket = socket_create(AF_INET,SOCK_STREAM,SOL_TCP);
socket_bind($socket,'127.0.0.1',$port);
socket_listen($socket);
socket_set_nonblock($socket);

while(
true)
{
if((
$newc = socket_accept($socket)) !== false)
{
echo
"Client $newc has connected\n";
$clients[] = $newc;
}
}

?>

The socket returned by this resource will be non-blocking, regardless of what the listening socket is set to. This is actually true for all FCNTL modifiers.

This case is a very simple interaction between the TCP client side and the TCP server side

<?php
// create for simple-tcp-server
$sock = socket_create(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, getprotobyname('tcp'));
socket_bind($sock, '127.0.0.1',5000);
socket_listen($sock,1);
$clnt_sock = socket_accept($sock); //阻塞
$st = "hello world ^_^";
socket_write($clnt_sock, $st,strlen($st));
socket_close($clnt_sock);
socket_close($sock);
?>

<?php
//create for simple-tcp-client
$clnt_sock = socket_create(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, getprotobyname('tcp'));
socket_connect($clnt_sock, '127.0.0.1', 5000);
$ret= socket_read($clnt_sock, 1024);
print
"from simple-tcp-server:".$ret.PHP_EOL;
socket_close($clnt_sock);
?>

<fruit>
from simple-tcp-server:hello world ^_^

Be aware signal handler functions set with pcntl_signal are not called while a socket is blocking waiting for a connection; the signal is absorbed silently and the handler called when a connection is made.
