socket_accept

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

socket_acceptAkzeptiert eine Verbindung an einem Socket

Beschreibung

socket_accept(Socket $socket): Socket|false

Nachdem der Socket socket mit socket_create() erzeugt, mit socket_bind() mit einem Namen verknüpft und mit socket_listen() angewiesen wurde, nach eingehenden Verbindungsanforderungen zu horchen, werden sie mit dieser Funktion an dem Socket zugelassen. Nach einem erfogreichen Verbindungsaufbau wird eine neue Socket-Instanz zurückgegeben, welche zur Kommunikation benutzt werden kann. Gibt es an diesem Socket mehrere Verbindungen in der Warteschlange wird die erste benutzt. Falls es keine wartenden Verbindungen gibt, blockiert die Funktion socket_accept() so lange, bis eine Verbindung angefordert wird. Falls der Socket socket mit den Funktionen socket_set_blocking() oder socket_set_nonblock() auf 'nicht blockieren' gesetzt wurde, wird false zurückgegeben.

Die Socket-Instanz, die von socket_accept() zurückgegeben wird, sollte nicht dazu benutzt werden, neue Verbindungen zuzulassen. Der ursprüngliche wartende Socket socket bleibt dagegen geöffnet und kann wiederverwendet werden.

Parameter-Liste

socket

Eine Socket-Instanz, die mit der Funktion socket_create() erzeugt wurde.

Rückgabewerte

Gibt bei Erfolg eine neue Socket-Instanz zurück oder false, falls ein Fehler auftritt. Der aktuelle Fehlercode kann mit der Funktion socket_last_error() ermittelt werden. Dieser Fehlercode kann an die Funktion socket_strerror() übergeben werden, um eine textuelle Beschreibung des Fehlers zu erhalten.

Changelog

Version Beschreibung
8.0.0 Bei Erfolg gibt diese Funktion nun eine Socket-Instanz zurück; vorher wurde eine resource zurückgegeben.

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;
    }
}

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.

This example doesn't work. You have to call socket_listen($fd) after your bind in order to accept incoming connections.

In order to make many clients connectable to the server, you have to set the accepted socket also to non-blocking. Otherwise the accepted connection will block further incoming connections.

while (true) {
    $newSock = @socket_accept($sock);

    if ($newSock) {
        echo 'client connected';

        socket_set_nonblock($newSock);
    }
}
