why xdebug extension must be loaded as a zend extension?

what is zend extension and what are the differents between regular php extension and zend extension?

let’s start from that the extension loading process.

PHP是可以被扩展的, PHP的核心引擎Zend Engine也是可以被扩展的, 如果你也对Apache Module的编写也有所了解的话, 那么, 你就会对如下的结构很熟悉了:

struct _zend_extension {        char *name;        char *version;        char *author;        char *URL;        char *copyright;        startup_func_t startup;        shutdown_func_t shutdown;        activate_func_t activate;        deactivate_func_t deactivate;        message_handler_func_t message_handler;        op_array_handler_func_t op_array_handler;        statement_handler_func_t statement_handler;        fcall_begin_handler_func_t fcall_begin_handler;        fcall_end_handler_func_t fcall_end_handler;        op_array_ctor_func_t op_array_ctor;        op_array_dtor_func_t op_array_dtor;        int (*api_no_check)(int api_no);        void *reserved2;        void *reserved3;        void *reserved4;        void *reserved5;        void *reserved6;        void *reserved7;        void *reserved8;        DL_HANDLE handle;        int resource_number;};

然后, 让我们对比下PHP extension的module entry:

struct _zend_module_entry {          unsigned short size;          unsigned int zend_api;          unsigned char zend_debug;          unsigned char zts;          struct _zend_ini_entry *ini_entry;          struct _zend_module_dep *deps;          char *name;          struct _zend_function_entry *functions;          int (*module_startup_func)(INIT_FUNC_ARGS);          int (*module_shutdown_func)(SHUTDOWN_FUNC_ARGS);          int (*request_startup_func)(INIT_FUNC_ARGS);          int (*request_shutdown_func)(SHUTDOWN_FUNC_ARGS);          void (*info_func)(ZEND_MODULE_INFO_FUNC_ARGS);          char *version;          size_t globals_size;     #ifdef ZTS          ts_rsrc_id* globals_id_ptr;     #else          void* globals_ptr;     #endif          void (*globals_ctor)(void *global TSRMLS_DC);          void (*globals_dtor)(void *global TSRMLS_DC);          int (*post_deactivate_func)(void);          int module_started;          unsigned char type;          void *handle;          int module_number;     };

上面的结构, 可以结合我之前的文章用C/C++扩展你的PHP来帮助理解.

恩,回到主题:既然Xdebug要以Zend Extension方式加载, 那么它必然有基于Zend Extension的需求, 会是什么呢?

恩, 我们知道Xdebug有profile PHP的功能, 对, 就是statement_handler:
the statement handler callback inserts an additional opcode at the end of every statement in a script in which the callback is called. One of the primary uses for this sort of callback is to implement per-line profiling, stepping debuggers, or code-coverage utilities.

并且,因为Xdebug也提供了给用户脚本使用的函数, 所以, 它也会有部分PHP extension的实现, 并且由于它要以ZendExt方式载入的原因,所以它必须自己实现本身PHPExt部分的载入过程.

最后, 将PHP Extension的载入过程罗列如下(我会慢慢加上注释), 当然, 如果你等不及想知道, 也欢迎你直接在我的博客风雪之隅留言探讨.

以apache/mod_php5.c为例

1. 在mod_php5.c中,定义了Apache模块结构:

module MODULE_VAR_EXPORT php5_module =     {          STANDARD_MODULE_STUFF,          php_init_handler,           /* initializer */          php_create_dir,             /* per-directory config creator */          php_merge_dir,              /* dir merger */          NULL,                       /* per-server config creator */          NULL,                       /* merge server config */          php_commands,               /* command table */          php_handlers,               /* handlers */          NULL,                       /* filename translation */          NULL,                       /* check_user_id */          NULL,                       /* check auth */          NULL,                       /* check access */          NULL,                       /* type_checker */          NULL,                       /* fixups */          NULL                        /* logger */     #if MODULE_MAGIC_NUMBER >= 19970103          , NULL                      /* header parser */     #endif     #if MODULE_MAGIC_NUMBER >= 19970719          , NULL                      /* child_init */     #endif     #if MODULE_MAGIC_NUMBER >= 19970728          , php_child_exit_handler        /* child_exit */     #endif     #if MODULE_MAGIC_NUMBER >= 19970902          , NULL                      /* post read-request */     #endif     };/* }}} */

可见, 最开始被调用的将会是php_init_handler,

static void php_init_handler(server_rec *s, pool *p){    register_cleanup(p, NULL, (void (*)(void *))apache_php_module_shutdown_wrapper, (void (*)(void *))php_module_shutdown_for_exec);    if (!apache_php_initialized) {        apache_php_initialized = 1;#ifdef ZTS        tsrm_startup(1, 1, 0, NULL);#endif        sapi_startup(&apache_sapi_module);        php_apache_startup(&apache_sapi_module);    }#if MODULE_MAGIC_NUMBER >= 19980527    {        TSRMLS_FETCH();        if (PG(expose_php)) {            ap_add_version_component("PHP/" PHP_VERSION);        }    }#endif}

Copy after login

这里, 调用了sapi_startup, 这部分是初始化php的apache sapi,
然后是调用,php_apache_startup:

static int php_apache_startup(sapi_module_struct *sapi_module){    if (php_module_startup(sapi_module, &apache_module_entry, 1) == FAILURE) {        return FAILURE;    } else {        return SUCCESS;    }}

Copy after login

这个时候,调用了php_module_startup, 其中有:

/* this will read in php.ini, set up the configuration parameters,       load zend extensions and register php function extensions       to be loaded later */    if (php_init_config(TSRMLS_C) == FAILURE) {        return FAILURE;    }

Copy after login

调用了php_init_config, 这部分读取所有的php.ini和关联的ini文件, 然后对于每一条配置指令调用:

.... if (sapi_module.ini_entries) {        zend_parse_ini_string(sapi_module.ini_entries, 1, php_config_ini_parser_cb, &extension_lists);    }然后在php_config_ini_parser_cb中:               if (!strcasecmp(Z_STRVAL_P(arg1), "extension")) { /* load function module */                    zval copy;                     copy = *arg2;                    zval_copy_ctor(&copy);                    copy.refcount = 0;                    zend_llist_add_element(&extension_lists.functions, &copy);                } else if (!strcasecmp(Z_STRVAL_P(arg1), ZEND_EXTENSION_TOKEN)) { /* load Zend extension */                    char *extension_name = estrndup(Z_STRVAL_P(arg2), Z_STRLEN_P(arg2));                     zend_llist_add_element(&extension_lists.engine, &extension_name);                } else {                    zend_hash_update(&configuration_hash, Z_STRVAL_P(arg1), Z_STRLEN_P(arg1) + 1, arg2, sizeof(zval), (void **) &entry);                    Z_STRVAL_P(entry) = zend_strndup(Z_STRVAL_P(entry), Z_STRLEN_P(entry));                }

Copy after login

这里记录下来所有要载入的php extension和zend extension,
然后, 让我们回到php_module_startup, 后面有调用到了
php_ini_register_extensions(TSRMLS_C);

void php_ini_register_extensions(TSRMLS_D){    zend_llist_apply(&extension_lists.engine, php_load_zend_extension_cb TSRMLS_CC);    zend_llist_apply(&extension_lists.functions, php_load_function_extension_cb TSRMLS_CC);     zend_llist_destroy(&extension_lists.engine);    zend_llist_destroy(&extension_lists.functions);}

Copy after login

我们可以看到, 对于每一个扩展记录, 都调用了一个回叫函数, 我们这里只看php_load_function_extension_cb:

static void php_load_function_extension_cb(void *arg TSRMLS_DC){    zval *extension = (zval *) arg;    zval zval;     php_dl(extension, MODULE_PERSISTENT, &zval, 0 TSRMLS_CC);}

Copy after login

最后, 就是核心的载入逻辑了:

void php_dl(zval *file, int type, zval *return_value, int start_now TSRMLS_DC){        void *handle;        char *libpath;        zend_module_entry *module_entry;        zend_module_entry *(*get_module)(void);        int error_type;        char *extension_dir;         if (type == MODULE_PERSISTENT) {                extension_dir = INI_STR("extension_dir");        } else {                extension_dir = PG(extension_dir);        }         if (type == MODULE_TEMPORARY) {                error_type = E_WARNING;        } else {                error_type = E_CORE_WARNING;        }         if (extension_dir && extension_dir[0]){                int extension_dir_len = strlen(extension_dir);                 if (type == MODULE_TEMPORARY) {                        if (strchr(Z_STRVAL_P(file), '/') != NULL || strchr(Z_STRVAL_P(file), DEFAULT_SLASH) != NULL) {                                php_error_docref(NULL TSRMLS_CC, E_WARNING, "Temporary module name should contain only filename");                                RETURN_FALSE;                        }                }                 if (IS_SLASH(extension_dir[extension_dir_len-1])) {                        spprintf(&libpath, 0, "%s%s", extension_dir, Z_STRVAL_P(file));                } else {                        spprintf(&libpath, 0, "%s%c%s", extension_dir, DEFAULT_SLASH, Z_STRVAL_P(file));                }        } else {                libpath = estrndup(Z_STRVAL_P(file), Z_STRLEN_P(file));        }         /* load dynamic symbol */        handle = DL_LOAD(libpath);        if (!handle) {                php_error_docref(NULL TSRMLS_CC, error_type, "Unable to load dynamic library '%s' - %s", libpath, GET_DL_ERROR());                GET_DL_ERROR(); /* free the buffer storing the error */                efree(libpath);                RETURN_FALSE;        }         efree(libpath);         get_module = (zend_module_entry *(*)(void)) DL_FETCH_SYMBOL(handle, "get_module");         /*         * some OS prepend _ to symbol names while their dynamic linker         * does not do that automatically.
