 New Comment:

Are you sure this is related to my problem? Do you have any data in
your session? If so, it very well might be related, if you experience
the crash always, no matter what, on session_start(); you should look
for a solution elsewhere.

In my case, the segmentation faults are triggered within the
__wakeup(); functions of my objects that exists in the session. Under
certain conditions the compiler messes up when unserializing the
session (In my last test-run yesterday memory leaks where reported with
a compiler with debug enabled and de segfaults disappeared, without the
debug mode enabled the segfaults returned) causing simple variable
assignments to crash php. 

After a lot of testing I found when not putting certain data in the
session, the segfaults would disappear. However this data has nothing
to do with the crashing object. Unless the data has been referenced. It
shouldn't, but http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=24485 might be causing a
reference anyway.

Still, the php compiler contains some very serious bugs, that might be
causing, or causing the conditions which result in a segmentation
fault.

Not sure if this is the same bug or not; however, I'm getting a
segfault on every call to session_start(), no matter how trivial the
code ( <? session_start(); ?> will do it).
FreeBSD 4.8-STABLE 
Apache/1.3.33 (Unix) mod_ssl/2.8.22 OpenSSL/0.9.7e PHP/4.3.10 

Not sure what other info would be useful to you.

Sorry I took so long, apache was annoying me. maxservers was set to 1
but it kept spawning children. It took me a while to attach the right
one to gdb.
Also I recall having to set the maximum allowed memory size to *sick
amount* again. Over 32M! Does an object that takes serialized 3M over
32M during runtime? I might be copying that object somewhere, but not
more than once or twice.

Description:
------------
PHP seems to crash on complex objects at exit or on session_start();

I suspect the php internal session_encode, session_decode, serialize
and unserialize functions.

Ive not been able to reproduce this as it only seems to occur with
*VERY* complex objects like my code generates.

Some strange facts I've found out about while trying to pinpoint the
exact cause:
- In some occasions, escaping a foreach on $this->property in an
objects __wakeup(); made the problem disappear.
- When manually decoding a session file, (about 3M) I also got a
segmentation fault. After increasing the available memory to over 64M
the session got correctly decoded. With this *SICK* amount of memory,
the actual script kept segfaulting, however, it took longer to segfault
so expect a memory leak or infinite loop.
- This problem occurs on a Fedora Core 2, Apache 2.0, PHP 4.3.10
machine, while on RedHat 7.3, Apache 1.3.29, PHP 4.3.6 everything works
fine. So suspect the bugfix (4.3.9->4.3.10) on session handling for
spooky behaviour.

I will try to keep you all up to date.
Thank you,
Eric van Blokland

---------------
Contact me for access to code. The code is very large and complex, I
haven't been able to pinpoint to exact cause of this problem

Suspect internal session_encode to puke, all output correct though

Error occurs with session_start(); suspect session_decode to puke. No

Might be 31313 Related, crash can be avoided by disabling foreach on
$this->property
