Bug #78982 pdo_pgsql returns dead persistent connection
Submitted: 2019-12-17 17:38 UTC Modified: -
From: kentaro at ranvis dot com Assigned:
Status: Closed Package: PDO PgSQL
PHP Version: master-Git-2019-12-17 (Git) OS:
Private report: No CVE-ID: None

Description:
------------
When PDO::ATTR_PERSISTENT is true,
PDO tells a driver to check if the connection is still alive.
For PDO PgSQL driver, this is done in pdo_pgsql_check_liveness().
It calls PQstatus() to see if the status is good,
but since PQstatus() only returns the previous status stored locally,
the driver cannot tell if the connection is actually alive.
This results in returning possible dead connection to the script.

will add a PR.

Test script:
---------------
<?php

$connArgs = ['pgsql:dbname=DB_NAME', 'USER', 'PASSWORD', [
    PDO::ATTR_PERSISTENT => true,
    PDO::ATTR_ERRMODE => PDO::ERRMODE_EXCEPTION,
]];
$pdo = new PDO(...$connArgs);

var_dump($pdo->query('select 1'));
$pdo = null;

sleep(15); // kill the DB connection here
//system('sudo systemctl restart postgresql-12');
//system('net stop postgresql-x64-12 && net start postgresql-x64-12');

$pdo = new PDO(...$connArgs);
var_dump($pdo->query('select 1')); // should not throw but throws


Expected result:
----------------
outputs 1 two times

Actual result:
--------------
outputs 1 then throws an exception
