PHP 8.3.4 Released!

proc_terminate

(PHP 5, PHP 7, PHP 8)

proc_terminate Termine un processus ouvert par proc_open()

Description

proc_terminate(resource $process, int $signal = 15): bool

proc_terminate() envoie un signal au processus process (créé avec proc_open()) pour lui indiquer qu'il doit se terminer. proc_terminate() se termine immédiatement après, et n'attend pas l'arrêt réel du processus.

proc_terminate() vous permet de conclure un processus, et de continuer les autres tâches. Vous pouvez tester la présence de votre processus en utilisant la fonction proc_get_status().

Liste de paramètres

process

La ressource proc_open() qui sera fermée.

signal

Ce paramètre optionnel n'est utile que sur les plates-formes POSIX : vous pouvez alors spécifier un signal à envoyer au processus, en utilisant l'appel système kill(2). La valeur par défaut est alors SIGTERM.

Valeurs de retour

Retourne le code de sortie du processus.

/bin/sh -c CMD will fork sh and then exec CMD.
/bin/sh -c exec CMD will NOT fork and only executes CMD.

Therefore, you can get rid of this hack by prefixing your command to "exec bla bla bla".

As explained in http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=39992, proc_terminate() leaves children of the child process running. In my application, these children often have infinite loops, so I need a sure way to kill processes created with proc_open(). When I call proc_terminate(), the /bin/sh process is killed, but the child with the infinite loop is left running.

Until proc_terminate() gets fixed, I would not recommend using it. Instead, my solution is to:
1) call proc_get_status() to get the parent pid (ppid) of the process I want to kill.
2) use ps to get all pids that have that ppid as their parent pid
3) use posix_kill() to send the SIGKILL (9) signal to each of those child pids
4) call proc_close() on process resource

<?php
$descriptorspec
= array(
0 => array('pipe', 'r'), // stdin is a pipe that the child will read from
1 => array('pipe', 'w'), // stdout is a pipe that the child will write to
2 => array('pipe', 'w') // stderr is a pipe the child will write to
);
$process = proc_open('bad_program', $descriptorspec, $pipes);
if(!
is_resource($process)) {
throw new
Exception('bad_program could not be started.');
}
//pass some input to the program
fwrite($pipes[0], $lots_of_data);
//close stdin. By closing stdin, the program should exit
//after it finishes processing the input
fclose($pipes[0]);

//do some other stuff ... the process will probably still be running
//if we check on it right away

$status = proc_get_status($process);
if(
$status['running'] == true) { //process ran too long, kill it
//close all pipes that are still open
fclose($pipes[1]); //stdout
fclose($pipes[2]); //stderr
//get the parent pid of the process we want to kill
$ppid = $status['pid'];
//use ps to get all the children of this process, and kill them
$pids = preg_split('/\s+/', `ps -o pid --no-heading --ppid $ppid`);
foreach(
$pids as $pid) {
if(
is_numeric($pid)) {
echo
"Killing $pid\n";
posix_kill($pid, 9); //9 is the SIGKILL signal
}
}

proc_close($process);
}

?>

on Windows platform proc_terminate() does not kill sub-processes that are not handling kill signals. It happens even if you call xxx.exe and call proc_terminate() the process will remain active.

The solution is instead of calling proc_terminate() is to call the user-defined kill() function (already win/unix optimized)
After that need to close all pipes and execute proc_close().

function kill($pid){
return stripos(php_uname('s'), 'win')>-1 ? exec("taskkill /F /T /PID $pid") : exec("kill -9 $pid");
}

function killall($pids) {
$os=stripos(php_uname('s'), 'win')>-1;
($_=implode($os?' /PID ':' ',$pids)) or ($_=$pids);
return preg_match('/success|close/', $os ? exec("taskkill /F /T /PID $_") : exec("kill -9 $_"));
}

Example:

$pstatus = proc_get_status($resource);
$PID = $pstatus['pid'];

// other commands

kill($PID); // instead of proc_terminate($resource);
fclose($pipes[0]);
fclose($pipes[1]);
fclose($pipes[2]);
proc_close($resource);

Just a small note so people don't have to look elsewhere

To get the list of processes or find a process by name, use
$proclist = shell_exec('ps -elF') for linux
$proclist = shell_exec('tasklist') for windows

After that, you can use php normal parsing functions to get the pid
