In case anyone is puzzled, stream_set_timeout DOES NOT work for sockets created with socket_create or socket_accept. Use socket_set_option instead.
Instead of:
<?php
stream_set_timeout($socket,$sec,$usec);
?>
Use:
<?php
socket_set_option($socket, SOL_SOCKET, SO_RCVTIMEO, array('sec'=>$sec, 'usec'=>$usec));
socket_set_option($socket, SOL_SOCKET, SO_SNDTIMEO, array('sec'=>$sec, 'usec'=>$usec));
?>
stream_set_timeout
(PHP 4 >= 4.3.0, PHP 5, PHP 7, PHP 8)
stream_set_timeout — ストリームにタイムアウトを設定する
説明
stream にタイムアウトの値を設定します。
この値は、seconds と
microseconds の和で表されます。
ストリームがタイムアウトとなった場合は、
stream_get_meta_data() が返す配列のキー 'timed_out'
の値が true に設定されます。エラーや警告が発生していなくても同様になります。
パラメータ
-
stream -
対象となるストリーム。
-
seconds -
設定したいタイムアウトの秒数部分。
-
microseconds -
設定したいタイムアウトのマイクロ秒数部分。
戻り値
成功した場合に true を、失敗した場合に false を返します。
例
例1 stream_set_timeout() の例
<?php
$fp = fsockopen("www.example.com", 80);
if (!$fp) {
echo "開けません\n";
} else {
fwrite($fp, "GET / HTTP/1.0\r\n\r\n");
stream_set_timeout($fp, 2);
$res = fread($fp, 2000);
$info = stream_get_meta_data($fp);
fclose($fp);
if ($info['timed_out']) {
echo 'Connection timed out!';
} else {
echo $res;
}
}
?>注意
注意:
この関数では、stream_socket_recvfrom() のような 高度な操作はできません。そのかわりに、timeout パラメータを指定して stream_select() を使用してください。
この関数は、以前は set_socket_timeout() 、その後は socket_set_timeout() と呼ばれたこともありましたが、 これらの利用は推奨されません。

If the timeout fails, because the server remains completely silent, one may have to add stream_select() to make the timeout work. This may be much more efficient that a non-blocking reading operation.
<?php
stream_set_timeout($c, $timeout);
$data = '';
$stR = array($this->smtp_conn);
$stW = null;
while (is_resource($c) && !feof($c)) {
if (!stream_select($stR, $stW, $stW, $timeout)) {
trigger_error('Timeout');
break;
}
$str = fgets($c, 515);
$data.= $str;
// Handling of "traditional" timeout
$info = stream_get_meta_data($c);
if ($info['timed_out']) {
trigger_error('Timeout');
break;
}
}
?>
Background: We had issues with a SMTP server that was addresses unencrypted while expecting TLS encryption. The stream_set_timeout() alone did not work as expected and the script hung for an hour or more.

Here is a working example for loops:
<?php
// Timeout in seconds
$timeout = 5;
$fp = fsockopen("www.server.com", 80, $errno, $errstr, $timeout);
if ($fp) {
fwrite($fp, "GET /file.php HTTP/1.0\r\n");
fwrite($fp, "Host: www.server.com\r\n");
fwrite($fp, "Connection: Close\r\n\r\n");
stream_set_blocking($fp, TRUE);
stream_set_timeout($fp,$timeout);
$info = stream_get_meta_data($fp);
while ((!feof($fp)) && (!$info['timed_out'])) {
$data .= fgets($fp, 4096);
$info = stream_get_meta_data($fp);
ob_flush;
flush();
}
if ($info['timed_out']) {
echo "Connection Timed Out!";
} else {
echo $data;
}
}
?>

Another note alread states that blocking-reads may be an issue, if the counterpart responds very slowly - or not at all. The stream timeout may not work as expected in such a situation.
However, php.net provides very little information on how to use non-blocking reading operations. Here's a code sample:
<?php
stream_set_timeout($c, $timeout);
$data = '';
while (is_resource($c) && !feof($c)) {
// Use non-blocking reading for first loop
if (($data === '') and ($timeout > 0)) {
stream_set_blocking($c, false);
$endtimeOut = time() + $timeout;
$str = '';
while ((time() < $endtimeOut) and (strlen($str) < 515) and !feof($c)) {
sleep(1); // Note: This may require tuning
$str.= fgets($c, 515);
}
// Handling first-read timeout
if (time() >= $endtimeOut) {
trigger_error('Timeout', E_USER_WARNING);
break;
}
stream_set_blocking($c, true);
} else {
$str = fgets($c, 515);
}
$data.= $str;
// Handling of "traditional" timeout
$info = stream_get_meta_data($c);
if ($info['timed_out']) {
trigger_error('Timeout', E_USER_WARNING);
break;
}
}
?>

This function seems to have no effect when running as a CLI script, see http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=36030

I have found it required to add
"stream_set_blocking($fp, FALSE )"
prior to any fgets(), fread(), etc. to prevent the code from hanging up when remote files are called and the response is slow.

I didn't have much luck with the suggestions below (although I likely applied them wrong).
Instead, I used stream_context_create() and set an http option for timeout. I fed that context into file_get_contents() and voila!
To my desperate friend below: the https transport can also use the http stream context options. I haven't verified this works as I don't have a slow responding ssl to test on. But if you are still stressing, give the below a shot (you may need to modify a bit...)
<?php
$timeout = 5*60;
$options = array(
'http'=>array(
'method'=>"GET",
'header'=>"Accept-language: en\r\n",
'timeout' => $timeout
)
);
$context = stream_context_create($options);
$contents = file_get_contents($source, false, $context);
?>
Yes...that is a 5 minute timeout.

If you are using fsockopen() to create a connection, first going to write into the stream and then waiting for the reply (e.g. simulating HTTP request with some extra headers), then stream_set_timeout() must be set only after the write - if it is before write, it has no effect on the read timeout :-(
Noticed at least on PHP/4.3.10

stream_set_timeout() is not suitable for such files as UNIX-devices (/dev/...), i suggest to use select() instead with desirable timeout value - that works well.

I have found that in order to actually stop the socket from timing out the script, you must call stream_get_meta_data and check for a timeout within the loop reading from the socket.
Example:
<?php
$sock = fsockopen($host, 80, $errno, $errstr, 30);
if(!$sock){
echo "Unable to get server status";
}else{
$out = "GET /server.php HTTP/1.1\r\n";
$out .= "Host: $host\r\n";
$out .= "Connection: Close\r\n\r\n";
fwrite($sock, $out);
stream_set_blocking($fp, FALSE );
stream_set_timeout($sock, $timeout);
$info = stream_get_meta_data($sock);
while (!feof($sock) && !$info['timed_out']) {
$file .= fgets($sock, 4096);
$info = stream_get_meta_data($sock);
}
fclose($sock);
?>

Just in case someone stumbles into my situation... I was trying to get the microseconds part to work and it just wasn't working as expected.
Assuming blocking mode is true and I use
<?php stream_set_timeout($s, 1, 0);?>
I get a 1s delay as expected. However when I do
<?php stream_set_timeout($s, 0, 500);?>
I expect a 500microsecond delay but I get no delays at all. However when i do this
<?php stream_set_timeout($s, 0, 500000);?>
I get a 500 microsecond delay which is what I was expecting
