Description:
------------
stream_set_blocking seems to get ignored. There are no 
errors or warnings, but the socket behaves as if it was set 
to blocking.
The same code works as expected with php 5.0.1 on a FreeBsd 
box, but not with 5.1.2 under gentoo linux. The piece of 
code sample included is all that's needed to see the 
problem.
Php is configured as stand-alone, not as an apache module.

Thanks a lot for any help you can provide!

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
set_time_limit (0); error_reporting (2047);
$sock = stream_socket_server("tcp://0.0.0.0:7000", $errno, $errstr);
stream_set_blocking($sock, 0);
$counter = 0;
if (!isset($sockCount)) {$sockCount = 0; }
while(true) {
	$msgsock[$sockCount] = @stream_socket_accept($sock, 0);
	if (is_resource($msgsock[$sockCount])) { $sockCount++; }
	$counter = 0;
	while($counter < $sockCount + 1) {
		if (is_resource($msgsock[$counter])) {
echo "loop1:\n";
			$buf = fread($msgsock[$counter],2048);
echo "loop2: $buf\n";
		}			
echo "keep looping: $buf\n";
		if ($buf) { echo "buf: $buf\n"; }
		$counter++;
	}
}
fclose ($sock);
?>


Expected result:
----------------
It should echo "keep looping" if there is no input

Actual result:
--------------
It keeps echoing "keep looping" until a connection is made. 
After input was received (made a telnet connection to port 
7000 and sent some text thru), the trace stops at "loop1". 
Only about every 30sec(or so) it does a complete loop. I think 
that is after fread() times out intenally.
Also, if the connction is closed, it keeps looping thru "keep 
looping" again.

Thank you for the quick reply. Unfortunately the latest 
version didn't fix the problem for me. 
It still only loops until a connection is made.
Once the connection is established, it gets stuck on "loop1". 
Then it runs a whole loop once if you send input, and stops on 
loop1 again. 
If you disconnect it resumes looping.

Wez, I remember you bogusing similar bugs like this before..perhaps you have some insight on this.

Your code is a bit buggy, I can't get it working even after fixing the bug. See bug #36796 for a bit better (simpler :) example.
