Description:
------------
we are currently getting crashes with our code and apc. As this is not easily 
reproducible i am not quite sure how to pinpoint the code that causes it. We also 
get 2 different backtraces for the same part of the code. 
We are using PHP 5.4.4 with APC 3.1.10 with the patch from 
https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=62190 

Expected result:
----------------
should not crash

Actual result:
--------------
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

Any chance to get some code reproducing this?
 [2012-07-26 11:57 UTC] webmaster at mailz dot de
Unfortunately i cannot pinpoint any part in the code that causes this.  The 
segfault also occurs in shutdown so there is no specific code "causing" the 
issue. What i noticed though is that the bug only occurs when the request has 
been issued a second time. The first execution is fine. I retried with php 5.4.5 
and APC 3.1.11 and i still get the same error:

we do not have any special config, currently only:

is set.

I should be asking for this at once, but ... could you also post the APC

Thank you very much )

I'll try to make a reproduce case based on your traces. May be you could also try 
it - just a small test case not exposing your real code.

As a hint - it appears from the traces, that the crash is caused by freeing of 
the class properties. There is almost always a php code which makes a bug 
visible. In this case some code is cached but not properly freed.
 [2012-07-26 18:53 UTC] rasmus@php.net
Using sessions? There is a known chicken+egg problem with PHP+APC that can cause 
problems with session objects. The fix is to call session_write_close() when you 
no longer need anything from the session to force session closure before request 
shutdown.
 [2012-07-27 07:57 UTC] webmaster at mailz dot de
We tried to place session_write_close() at the end of our code, The issue still 
occurs though.

 [2012-08-14 11:54 UTC] ab@php.net
Thanks for the new trace. Hardly trying to repro this but still no result.

I've made some tests with trait and class inheritance mixing default properties. 
May be you could give me a little hint looking through your code where default 
class properties are defined some tricky way.

Also you've mentioned the patch from #62190 - is this part essential for your 
app? May be the bug is hidden in the part of the code using DOM.

Looks like some boringly normal code can't repro this. But as the last trace 
says - that's definitely something inside class default props. Of course it 
might be some internal class.

Thanks for your help, will try more myself.
 [2012-08-14 12:14 UTC] webmaster at mailz dot de
Thanks for taking a further look. The Fix mentioned in 62190 was required to run 
our code properly, but this occurred in another part of the code.
 [2012-08-15 14:31 UTC] ab@php.net
Yep, which part of the application? The information like how the default class 
properties are defined (may be something tricky), may be if there are some 
classes which extend internal classes, are traits used and so on. It could aim at 
a potential bug source, as I had no luck reproducing that using some regular 
snippets.

 [2012-09-20 19:32 UTC] rasmus@php.net
That backtrace has some useful info to help make your testcase. It is dealing 
with a class constant named hostnameDashCharacter
 [2012-09-27 11:29 UTC] daniel dot nienhaus at fliplife dot com
Here's a "small" test case. Extract, point your webserver to ./apccrash/pub and navigate your browser to index.php. This reliably produces the trace above.
It's a little bigger because it contains Agavi and Zend.

As a workaround, try to replace the INVALID constant in the $messageTemplates 
array in Zend_Validate_Hostname (or in Zend\Validator\Hostname in ZF2) with a 
string representation.

Hi

I got this problem as well, and surprisingly the fix lstrojny@php.net posted 
works...

I am testing this with the ZF2 Skeleton Application 
(https://github.com/zendframework/ZendSkeletonApplication), which I just 
downloaded and ran without any code modifications.

If this is not the case and you are able to provide the
information that was requested earlier, please do so and
change the status of the bug back to "Open". Thank you.
