Example #1 Shared Memory Operations Overview

<?php

// Create 100 byte shared memory block with system id of 0xff3
$shm_id = shmop_open(0xff3, "c", 0644, 100);
if (!
$shm_id) {
echo
"Couldn't create shared memory segment\n";
}

// Get shared memory block's size
$shm_size = shmop_size($shm_id);
echo
"SHM Block Size: " . $shm_size . " has been created.\n";

// Lets write a test string into shared memory
$shm_bytes_written = shmop_write($shm_id, "my shared memory block", 0);
if (
$shm_bytes_written != strlen("my shared memory block")) {
echo
"Couldn't write the entire length of data\n";
}

// Now lets read the string back
$my_string = shmop_read($shm_id, 0, $shm_size);
if (!
$my_string) {
echo
"Couldn't read from shared memory block\n";
}
echo
"The data inside shared memory was: " . $my_string . "\n";

//Now lets delete the block and close the shared memory segment
if (!shmop_delete($shm_id)) {
echo
"Couldn't mark shared memory block for deletion.";
}
shmop_close($shm_id);

Simple class for SHMOP implementation.

# Warning #

You can write/read only one direction. If you try read and write at the same time you get corrupt data. (Its works like STD in/out)
If you need bi-directional communication create 2 instance of shmop class.
Don't try attach more than one readers or writers for some shmid, you get corrupt data. This class use kludged spinlocks for improve speed, and not real atomic operations. You can add semaphore with flock, but it very slow. (~x3)

Benchmark:

Reads per sec: 6316 Data size per sec: 6.17 gb
