The TSRMLS_DC magic parameter passes around the thread-local storage pointer for the thread; the SG() macro uses that information to get at the sapi_globals struct for your thread.
You can also stuff your own SAPI related information into SG(server_context), if you are writing a SAPI: ... in my thread init code ... struct my_globals *g = calloc(1, sizeof(*g)); SG(server_context) = g; ... in the ub write callback ... struct my_globals *g = (struct my_globals*)SG(server_context); If TSRMLS_DC is not present in the function declaration, you can use TSRMLS_FETCH() to summon it out of thread-local-storage. --Wez.
