segfault occurs during apache config analyse.

If config doesnt have any php_flag, php_value,... apache starts and works as expected.
 [2012-01-01 19:05 UTC] public at wernig dot net
I have the same problem on Solaris 11 (express) i86pc. I'm not sure about ZTS mode (I have NOT set --enable-maintainer-zts)

I have compiled php-5.4 (various versions, the latest one being 5.4.0RC4) with the following configure flags:
--with-apxs2=/usr/local/apache2/bin/apxs --with-openssl=/usr/local/ssl --with-openssl-dir=/usr/local/ssl --with-zlib --enable-sockets --enable-shared=yes --enable-static=yes --prefix=/usr/local/apache2/php --enable-calendar --disable-ftp --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql --with-imap=/usr/local/imap --with-imap-ssl=/usr/local/ssl --enable-flatfile --without-recode --disable-ipv6 --with-mysql-sock=/var/run/mysql/mysql.sock --with-gettext=/opt/csw --enable-libxml --with-db4=/usr/local/BerkeleyDB

Builds and installs fine.

But during apache (2.2.21) startup, it segfaults and dumps core:
# /usr/local/svc/init.d/apache2 restart
Restarting Apache2 httpd ... 
/usr/local/apache2/bin/apachectl: line 80: 17568: Memory fault(coredump)

In fact, uncommenting all php_admin_value lines from apache config file, apache starts normally.

When compiling and installing 5.3.6 with the same configure options, the problem does not occur.
 [2012-01-01 19:22 UTC] public at wernig dot net
Just tried with 5.3.9RC4, and the problem does not occur. Seems to be something in 5.4
 [2012-01-04 07:32 UTC] laruence@php.net
hmm, the problem is when the real_value_hnd is called, the signal_startup has not 
been called yet...

can you give me the backtrace?  and btw, did you build that from a pure 
environ(make clean, make install).
 [2012-01-04 18:19 UTC] public at wernig dot net
Yes, the build is always from a pristine source directory (scripted).

I'm sorry to admit that I do not know how to produce a meaningful backtrace. I have the core file and gdb installed on the machine, yet not in the environment (solaris zone) where apache runs. Could you give a pointer on how to produce a helpful backtrace?
 [2012-01-04 18:50 UTC] public at wernig dot net
OK, managed to get gdb into the zone:

# gdb /usr/local/apache2/bin/httpd
GNU gdb 6.8
...
This GDB was configured as "i386-pc-solaris2.11"...

Thanks for the patch.

Works for me, httpd.worker + php 5.4.0RC5-dev ZTS 201201041830.
(solaris bug seems another issue)

@public are you sure your backtrace is simple copy&paste?  there is two strange 
lines:
#2  0xfe14088d in tsrm_mutex_lock (mutexp=0x0) at /opt/build.d/php-5/tmp/php5.4-

both of them are in line 391.

Yes, this is exactly as it is displayed by gdb. I still have the console open, and the output is what I have pasted. Strange, now that you mention it...

weird, does anyone else can reproduce this with the latest snap yet?
 [2012-02-28 13:33 UTC] public at wernig dot net
Hi all

After a couple of upgrades:
- solaris from express to 11.0
- apache from 2.2.21 to 2.2.22

I can now get the latest snapshot 201202281230 working!

[Tue Feb 28 14:20:59 2012] [notice] Apache/2.2.22 (Unix) PHP/5.4.0RC9-dev mod_ssl/2.2.22 OpenSSL/1.0.0g configured -- resuming normal operations

Apache does not segfault anymore, event though there are php_admin_values throughout all config files.

So, at the moment, I don't know why, but it works for me.
