Description:
------------
Oracle queries using oci_fetch_all causes Core Dumps sometimes if more than one record result set.

My setup: oracle-instantclient12.1-basic, OCI8 2.1.0, PHP 70, php70-php-cli (7.0.4-1.el6.remi - 2016-03-02), Red Hat EL 6.7, HTTPD 24

Observations on oci_fetch_all queries:
	1. If the query return set contains only one record, no problems.
	2. For more than one records return: Sometimes causes core dump (browser Error 500 Internal server error). 
		a. If total return bytes is large, core dump probability increases (possible cap on rows * bytes per record per clumn cell)
		b. Or sometimes error on only 2+ records - yet removing various columns reduces error probability.
		c. Queries with "joins" increase error probability.


Test script:
---------------
// Cor dumps on many random queries - see Observations above
$statement= oci_parse($connID, $query);
oci_execute($statement)
// ================= BAD, CORE DUMP:
$numRows = oci_fetch_all($statement, $results);


Expected result:
----------------
yum php70-php-cli (remi) was updated last night, but still no work.

POSSIBLE WORKAROUND:

// *********** (THIS DOES NOT WORK RIGHT NOW!!!!) **********
$allCols = oci_num_fields($st);
$colNames = array();
for ($i_c = 1; $i_c <= $allCols; $i_c++) {
	$aColName  = oci_field_name($statement, $i_c);
	$colNames[] = $aColName;
}
$numRows = 0;
while (($row = oci_fetch_array($statement, OCI_BOTH)) != false) {
	$numRows++;
	foreach ($colNames as $i_c=>$aColName)
		$results[$aColName][] = $row[$aColName];
}


Actual result:
--------------
//~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ CORE DUMP

What query/queries crash?
Can you post some DDL to create a table that is known to crash - what data types are you using?
Can you create a backtrace?
Does PHP 5.6 / OCI8 2.0 also crash?

Answers to questions asked on 2016-03-04 00:31 UTC would help.  The PHP code snippet workaround doesn't help.

Likely a dup of 71600.

Answers to the questions would help me reproduce it.

Hi sorry for delay. I have been digging deep - still learning.
I'll give quicker response time next time.

Here is some DDL and oracle trace:

Dup of Bug #71600
 [2017-09-18 17:08 UTC] jodybrabec at gmail dot com
If still having problems with oci_fetch_all, use jody brabec's workaround function here called "my_oci_fetch_all"
 [2017-09-18 22:29 UTC] sixd@php.net
@ jodybrabec I strongly disagree.  If you are still have problems after upgrading to the latest OCI8 extension (check for it on PECL), then log a bug so it can be addressed.
 [2017-09-19 00:12 UTC] jodybrabec at gmail dot com
I strongly agree with you sixd, thank you.
