Let’s talk about PHP SOCKET programming (with detailed explanation)

在PHP中有太多我们需要学习和了解的东西，今天这篇文章就让我们一起聊聊PHP SOCKET编程(附详解)！我相信，当你们看完这篇文章后一定会收获很多东西，话不多说，一起看看吧！

1. 预备知识

       一直以来很少看到有多少人使用php的socket模块来做一些事情，大概大家都把它定位在脚本语言的范畴内吧，但是其实php的socket模块可以做很多事情，包括做ftplist,http post提交，smtp提交，组包并进行特殊报文的交互（如smpp协议），whois查询。这些都是比较常见的查询。

特别是php的socket扩展库可以做的事情简直不会比c差多少。
php的socket连接函数
1、集成于内核的socket
这个系列的函数仅仅只能做主动连接无法实现端口监听相关的功能。而且在4.3.0之前所有socket连接只能工作在阻塞模式下。
此系列函数包括
fsockopen，pfsockopen
这两个函数的具体信息可以查询php.net的用户手册
他们均会返回一个资源编号对于这个资源可以使用几乎所有对文件操作的函数对其进行操作如fgets(),fwrite(), fclose()等单注意的是所有函数遵循这些函数面对网络信息流时的规律，例如：
fread() 从文件指针 handle 读取最多 length 个字节。 该函数在读取完 length 个字节数，或到达 EOF 的时候，或（对于网络流）当一个包可用时就会停止读取文件，视乎先碰到哪种情况。 
可以看出对于网络流就必须注意取到的是一个完整的包就停止。
2、php扩展模块带有的socket功能。
php4.x 以后有这么一个模块extension=php_sockets.dll，Linux上是一个extension=php_sockets.so。
当打开这个此模块以后就意味着php拥有了强大的socket功能，包括listen端口，阻塞及非阻塞模式的切换，multi-client 交互式处理等

2. 使用PHP socket扩展

服务器端代码：

<?php
/**
 * File name server.php
 * 服务器端代码
 * 
 * @author guisu.huang
 * @since 2012-04-11
 * 
 */

//确保在连接客户端时不会超时
set_time_limit(0);
//设置IP和端口号
$address = "127.0.0.1";
$port = 2046; //调试的时候，可以多换端口来测试程序！
/**
 * 创建一个SOCKET 
 * AF_INET=是ipv4 如果用ipv6，则参数为 AF_INET6
 * SOCK_STREAM为socket的tcp类型，如果是UDP则使用SOCK_DGRAM
*/
$sock = socket_create(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, SOL_TCP) or die("socket_create() 
失败的原因是:" . socket_strerror(socket_last_error()) . "/n");
//阻塞模式
socket_set_block($sock) or die("socket_set_block() 
失败的原因是:" . socket_strerror(socket_last_error()) . "/n");
//绑定到socket端口
$result = socket_bind($sock, $address, $port) or die("socket_bind() 
失败的原因是:" . socket_strerror(socket_last_error()) . "/n");
//开始监听
$result = socket_listen($sock, 4) or die("socket_listen() 
失败的原因是:" . socket_strerror(socket_last_error()) . "/n");
echo "OK\nBinding the socket on $address:$port ... ";
echo "OK\nNow ready to accept connections.\nListening on the socket ... \n";
do { // never stop the daemon
	//它接收连接请求并调用一个子连接Socket来处理客户端和服务器间的信息
$msgsock = socket_accept($sock) or  die("socket_accept() failed: reason: " . socket_strerror(socket_last_error()) . "/n");
	
	//读取客户端数据
	echo "Read client data \n";
	//socket_read函数会一直读取客户端数据,直到遇见\n,\t或者\0字符.PHP脚本把这写字符看做是输入的结束符.
	$buf = socket_read($msgsock, 8192);
	echo "Received msg: $buf   \n";
	
	//数据传送 向客户端写入返回结果
	$msg = "welcome \n";
socket_write($msgsock, $msg, strlen($msg)) or die("socket_write() failed: reason: " . socket_strerror(socket_last_error()) ."/n");
	//一旦输出被返回到客户端,父/子socket都应通过socket_close($msgsock)函数来终止
    socket_close($msgsock);
} while (true);
socket_close($sock);

客户端代码：

<?php
/**
 * File name:client.php
 * 客户端代码
 * 
 * @author guisu.huang
 * @since 2012-04-11
 */
set_time_limit(0);

$host = "127.0.0.1";
$port = 2046;
$socket = socket_create(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, SOL_TCP)or die("Could not create	socket\n"); // 创建一个Socket
 
$connection = socket_connect($socket, $host, $port) or die("Could not connet server\n");    //  连接
socket_write($socket, "hello socket") or die("Write failed\n"); // 数据传送 向服务器发送消息
while ($buff = socket_read($socket, 1024, PHP_NORMAL_READ)) {
    echo("Response was:" . $buff . "\n");
}
socket_close($socket);

使用cli方式启动server：

<span style="font-family:Arial,Helvetica,Georgia,sans-serif; color:#525454"><span style="line-height:24px">php server.php</span></span><span style="font-family:Arial,Helvetica,Georgia,sans-serif; color:#525454"><span style="line-height:24px"></span></span><span style="font-family:Arial,Helvetica,Georgia,sans-serif; color:#525454"><span style="line-height:24px"></span></span>

这里注意socket_read函数：

The optional type parameter is a named constant:
PHP_BINARY_READ - uses the system recv() function. Security for reading binary data. (Default in PHP > = 4.1.0)
PHP_NORMAL_READ - Read stops at \n or \r (Default in PHP <= 4.0.6)

##For the parameter PHP_NORMAL_READ, if the server's response result is not \ n. Cause socket_read(): unable to read from socket

3.Concurrent IO programming in PHP##Original text: http://rango.swoole.com/archives /508

1) Multi-process/multi-thread synchronization blocking

##The earliest server-side programs solved the problem of concurrency

IO through multi-process and multi-thread. The process model appeared earliest, and the concept of process has been around since the birth of the Unix system. The earliest server-side programs are generallyAcceptA process is created when a client connects, and then the child process enters the loop synchronization blocking area. Interact with client connections and send and receive processing data.

Multi-threading mode appeared later. Threads are lighter than processes, and the memory stack is shared between threads. , so interaction between different threads is very easy to implement. For example, in a program like a chat room, client connections can interact with each other, and players in the chat room can send messages to any other person. It is very simple to implement in multi-thread mode, and a client connection can be directly read and written in the thread. The multi-process mode requires the use of pipelines, message queues, and shared memory to achieve data interaction, collectively referred to as inter-process communication (

IPC) and complex technologies can be achieved.

Code example:

Multiple processes/The process of thread model is

1. Create a socket and bind the server port (bind), listening port (listen), in PHPUse stream_socket_server in one function to complete the above 3 steps. Of course, you can also use the php sockets extension to implement them separately.
2. Enters the while loop, blocking at acceptIn terms of operation, wait for the client connection to come in. At this time, the program will enter a sleep state until a new client initiates a connect to the server, and the operating system will wake up the process. acceptThe function returns the socket
3. The main process passes fork under the multi-process model (#php: pcntl_fork) To create a child process, use pthread_create under the multi-thread model (php: new Thread)Create child thread. Unless otherwise stated below, process will also be used to represent process / thread.
4. After the child process is successfully created, it enters the while loop, blocking at recv(php: fread) is called, waiting for the client to send data to the server.After receiving the data, the server program processes it and then uses send(php: fwrite) Send response to client. A long-connection service will continue to interact with the client, while a short-connection service will generally close after receiving a response.
5. When the client connection is closed, the child process exits and destroys all resources. The main process will recycle this child process.

The biggest problem with this model is that the creation and destruction of threads in the process / is very expensive. big. So the above model cannot be applied to very busy server programs. The corresponding improved version solves this problem. This is the classic Leader-Follower model.

Code example:

Its characteristic is that it will be created after the program startsN processes. Each child process enters Accept and waits for new connections to come in. When the client connects to the server, one of the child processes will be awakened, start processing the client request, and no longer accept new TCP connections. When this connection is closed, the child process will be released and re-enter Accept to participate in processing new connections.

The advantage of this model is that it can completely reuse the process, without additional consumption, and the performance is very good. Many common server programs are based on this model, such as Apache, PHP-FPM.

The multi-process model also has some disadvantages.

1. This model relies heavily on the number of processes to solve concurrency problems. One client connection requires one process. The number of worker processes depends on the concurrent processing capability. The operating system is limited in the number of processes it can create.
2. Starting a large number of processes will bring additional process scheduling consumption. When there are hundreds of processes, the process context switching scheduling consumption may account for less than CPU1% You can ignore it. If you start thousands or even tens of thousands of processes, the consumption will skyrocket. Scheduling consumption may account for tens of percent of CPU or even 100%.

There are also some scenarios that the multi-process model cannot solve, such as instant chat programs (IM) , a server must maintain tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands or millions of connections at the same time (the classic C10K problem), and the multi-process model is unable to meet its needs.

There is another scenario that is also the weakness of the multi-process model. Typically Web the server starts 100 processes if one request consumes 100ms, 100 processes can provide 1000qps, this processing capability is quite good. But if the request requires calling the external network Http interface, like QQ, Weibo login will take a long time, one request takes 10s. That process can only handle 0.1 requests in 1 seconds, 100 processes can only reach 10qps. This processing capability is too poor. .

Is there a technology that can handle all concurrencyIO in one process? The answer is yes, this is IO multiplexing technology.

IOReuse the / event Loop/Asynchronous non-blocking

##In factIOThe history of reuse is as long as multi-process, Linux has been provided for a long timeselect system call can maintain 1024 connections within a process. Later, the poll system call was added, and poll made some improvements. Solved the problem of 1024 limit and can maintain any number of connections. But select/poll Another problem is that it needs to loop to detect whether there are events on the connection. The problem arises, if the server has 100 million connections, and only one connection sends data to the server at a certain time, select/pollNeeds to loop 100 million times, of which only 1 times are hits, and the remaining 9910,0009999 times are invalid, wasting CPU resources.

UntilLinux 2.6 the kernel provides the new epollSystem call can maintain an unlimited number of connections without polling, which truly solves the C10K problem. Nowadays, various high-concurrency asynchronous IO server programs are based on epoll Implemented, such as Nginx, Node.js, Erlang, Golang. A single-process, single-threaded program like Node.js can last for more than 1 Millions##TCP connections, all thanks to epoll technology.

##IOReuse asynchronous non-blocking programs using the classic Reactor Model, Reactor As the name suggests, it means reactor. It does not process any data sending and receiving itself. You can only monitor the event changes of a socket handle.

##Reactor有4 core operations:

1. addAddsocketListen to reactor, which can be listen socket or the client socket, or it can be a pipe, eventfd, signal, etc.
2. setModify event monitoring and set the monitoring type, such as readable and writable. It is readable and easy to understand. For listen socket, it means that when a new client connects, it needs accept. For client connections to receive data, recv is required. Writable events are a bit more difficult to understand. A SOCKET has a buffer area. If you want to connect to the client, send 2M data cannot be sent out at one time. The operating system default TCP cache area only has 256K. Only 256K can be sent at one time. Once the buffer is full, send will Will return EAGAIN error. At this time, you need to listen for writable events. In pure asynchronous programming, you must listen for writable events to ensure that the send operation is completely non-blocking.
3. delRemoved from reactor, no Then listen to the event
4. callback is the corresponding processing logic after the event occurs, usually in add/ It is formulated when set.CThe language is implemented with function pointers, JSYou can use anonymous functions, PHPYou can use anonymous functions, object method arrays, and string function names.
