From: php at vicaya dot com Operating system: Linux 64-bit PHP version: 5.2.1 PHP Bug Type: Reproducible crash Bug description: cannot disable memory_limit with -1
Description: ------------ According to the documentation: http://us2.php.net/manual/en/ini.core.php "Note that to have no memory limit, set this directive to -1." But the code use more than 4GB virtual memory crashes with "Fatal error: Allowed memory size of -1 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 605 bytes) in ..." anyway. Reproduce code: --------------- <? count(file("a_10GB_file")) ?> // not production code :) on a machine with enough ram and swap space. Expected result: ---------------- number of lines in "a_10GB_file". Actual result: -------------- "Fatal error: Allowed memory size of -1 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 605 bytes) in ..." Suspect that memory limit directive is still a 32bit unsigned integer (size_t) and -1 is converted to 4G-1. -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=40800&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 4.4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40800&r=trysnapshot44 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40800&r=trysnapshot52 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40800&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40800&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40800&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40800&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40800&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40800&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40800&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40800&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40800&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40800&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40800&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40800&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40800&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40800&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40800&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40800&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40800&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40800&r=mysqlcfg
