Description:
------------
I am trying to build PHP 5.5.4 on Solaris 10 x86 and Solaris 10 SPARC and both are failing in the same spot in ext/sockets/conversions.c.  That file references parameters in the system msghdr structure that aren't defined by default.  If I add the compiler flags to define those parameters, it causes other parts of PHP to fail.

Here's the build output:

make: *** [ext/sockets/conversions.lo] Error 1

The ext/sockets/conversions.c code (which looks new to PHP 5.5) uses the msg_control, msg_controllen, and other fields in the msghdr structure.  This structure is defined in /usr/include/sys/socket.h:

/*
 * Message header for recvmsg and sendmsg calls.
 */
struct msghdr {
        void            *msg_name;              /* optional address */
        socklen_t       msg_namelen;            /* size of address */
        struct iovec    *msg_iov;               /* scatter/gather array */
        int             msg_iovlen;             /* # elements in msg_iov */

#if defined(_XPG4_2) || defined(_KERNEL)
        void            *msg_control;           /* ancillary data */
        socklen_t       msg_controllen;         /* ancillary data buffer len */
        int             msg_flags;              /* flags on received message */
#else
        caddr_t         msg_accrights;  /* access rights sent/received */
        int             msg_accrightslen;
#endif  /* defined(_XPG4_2) || defined(_KERNEL) */
};


So those parameters only exist on Solaris if the _XPG4_2 or _KERNEL parameters exist.  I can get those defined if I add these to CFLAGS: -D_XOPEN_SOURCE=1 -D_XOPEN_SOURCE_EXTENDED=1

However, when I do that, the typedef's of unchar, ushort, uint, and ulong don't get defined (because __XOPEN_OR_POSIX gets defined).  From /usr/include/sys/types.h:
#if !defined(__XOPEN_OR_POSIX) || defined(__EXTENSIONS__)

/* BEGIN CSTYLED */
typedef unsigned char   unchar;
typedef unsigned short  ushort;
typedef unsigned int    uint;
typedef unsigned long   ulong;
/* END CSTYLED */

With those typedefs missing, Lots of code in the Zend directory fails because ulong is not defined.

So, I'm in a situation if I make one section work, another section fails.  Has anybody else ran into this problem?  I am in the process of upgrading the PHP version from 5.2 to 5.5, so the config options did work in the past.

Still happens with 5.5.7 on SmartOS so is probably affecting all illumos and Solaris based systems.

Also duplicate of https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=65427 although the comment in this bug suggests the workaround in that bug is incorrect.
 [2014-01-16 13:26 UTC] christian dot lachner at gmail dot com
On Solaris 5.11, the problem's source is in /usr/include/sys/socket.h where the struct 'msghdr' is declared. The missing two elements '*msg_control' and 'msg_controllen' are IFDEFed out and can only be enabled by setting __lint, _XPG4_2 or _KERNEL. However, neither of these three values is set by the configure-script.

As a result, using export EXTRA_CFLAGS="-D__lint" makes socket.so as well as the rest of php build fine. Don't use EXTRA_CFLAGS="-D_XPG4_2" as it probably breaks other stuff.

Dunno about older Solaris releases though.
 [2014-01-27 19:28 UTC] rainer dot jung at kippdata dot de
My workaround is adding

#define _XOPEN_SOURCE 500
#define _XOPEN_SOURCE_EXTENDED 1
#define __EXTENSIONS__

at the top of the files ext/sockets/conversions.c and ext/sockets/sendrecvmsg.c.

this is still present in 5.6.11, solaris 11.2, sunpro 5.12.
5.3.x and 5.4.x are fine so it seems it was re-introduced in 5.5.x.
also see https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=8468 for historical reasons.

Still there in 5.6.21 / Solaris 11.2.
 [2016-08-04 05:39 UTC] norm dot jacobs at oracle dot com
FWIW, _XPG4_2 is an internal implementation detail in Solaris and should not be used directly, instead defining _XOPEN_SOURCE >=500 is a possible option.  See the standards(5) man page and/or sys/feature_tests.h on Solaris for more detail.

On Solaris 10, using the OpenCSW gcc 4.9.0 toolchain and prerequisite open source libraries, I successfully compiled ext/sockets/conversions.c and ext/sockets/sendrecvmsg.c by prepending:

#define _XOPEN_SOURCE 600
#define __EXTENSIONS__

to the top of each file.
