Description:
------------
When the PHP built-in development webserver finishes a request, it resets PHP's timer to defaults. On ITIMER_PROF (most) platforms, this usually isn't a problem because listening causes PHP to block on listen, stopping it from counting in execution time. On ITIMER_REAL platforms (IBM i and Cygwin), the timer will continue to count down and hit the hard timeout, killing an idle PHP development web server. (This may affect other mediums of PHP, but the development web server is the easiest case.)
The attached patch will add debug output for handling the ITIMER cases and let you force ITIMER_REAL on Linux.
The issue is likely reproducible on 7.3 and 8.0.
Test script:
---------------
<?php
set_time_limit(10); // recommend setting to a large value to diagnose ITIMER_REAL
$i = 0;
while(true) {
sleep(1); // comment if using ITIMER_PROF because it won't count
echo "$i<br/>\n";
$i++;
ob_flush();
flush();
}
Expected result:
----------------

I think the problem is for the max_execution_time handler (OnUpdateTimeout) - that seems to reset it even when there's no script running if it was changed.
