Description:
------------
* create persistent connection to database; store it to a variable
* create an additional persistent connection to database: store it in 
the same variable
* allocate a bunch of memory
* PHP segfaults

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
$db = connect();
$db = connect();

for($i = 0; $i < 10000; $i++)
{
  $exampleArray[] = new ExampleObject();
}

class ExampleObject { }

function connect()
{
  return new PDO( 'mysql:host=<db host>;dbname=<db name>', '<db user>', '<db password>',
      array( PDO::ATTR_PERSISTENT => true ));
}

Expected result:
----------------
no segmentation fault

Actual result:
--------------
[New Thread 0xb7f396c0 (LWP 3416)]

Looks like a gc issue.  Confirm by setting:

zend.enable_gc = Off

in your php.ini
 [2010-02-19 16:09 UTC] achristianson at yakabod dot com
I gave it a try with

zend.enable_gc = Off

The segmentation fault no longer occurs

Dmitry, can you take a look? - Thanks.

I'm not able to reproduce it. May be it's already fixed. Could you verify?

Hi, I've been trying to setup Menalto Gallery and after I got through entire setup 
of a fresh installation (to verify php, MSSQL, IIS were working fine), I pointed 
the gallery to my existing database and flat files.  Because my data came from an 
older version of the Gallery, it invokes upgrade wizard which dies every single 
time on step 2.  I've created a crash dump with adplus and it appears to be 
exactly the same bug as what's reported here.

This is 100% repeatable on my machine.  I'm using PHP 5.3.2 with Windows 2008 
Server R2, IIS7 and MSSQL 2008 R2.  I've also been able to get past the crash by 
adding "zend.enable_gc = Off" to php.ini

I can replicate under Ubuntu Server LTS 10.04 running nginx and php-fcgi (using spawn fcgi).

For the record, we are using Doctrine 2.0 (which uses the PDO) and PostgreSQL.

I can't reproduce this as well. (probably already fixed...)
 [2010-12-27 23:03 UTC] lsmith@php.net
I am also seeing segfaults/bus errors, which go away after disabling GC on PHP 
5.3.4 using PostgreSQL via Doctrine 2.0. Though the issues only appeared when I 
added ext intl. I am seeing these issues on OSX and Debian.
 [2010-12-27 23:05 UTC] lsmith@php.net
I should add that I have only seen this issue when running my entire test suite on 
the CLI. Running the crashing unit tests individually makes the issue go away.

We have the same crash with PHPCR unit tests with Midgard2. Some backtraces in:

I run php5-fpm (php v 5.3.3) on 32bit ubuntu 10.10 and am seeing the same issue 
- even when 
disabling garbage collection.  It seems as if fpm is not obeying the disabling 
of 
garbage collection.  I'm using mysql_pconnect()..

/usr/sbin/php5-fpm -i | grep -i zend.enable_gc
zend.enable_gc => Off => Off

Still produces (Here is my backtrace):

Core was generated by `/usr/sbin/php5-fpm --fpm-config /etc/php5/fpm/main.conf'.

Sorry forgot to mention, when i use mysql_connect() instead f mysql_pconnect() I 
do not get this segfault. I also tried removing suhosin, same results.
