pcntl_sigtimedwait() — internals

Compiler internals for pcntl_sigtimedwait(): lowering path, type checks, and runtime helpers.

pcntl_sigtimedwait() — internals

Where it lives

Lowering notes

  • Uses the runtime_call strategy from the single-source builtin descriptor.
  • Emits the typed EIR target runtime.pcntl.sigtimedwait through BuiltinLoweringContext.
  • The backend resolves that typed target through src/codegen/lower_inst/runtime_calls.rs; PHP builtin names do not participate in dispatch.

Semantic descriptor

  • Target strategy: runtime_call
  • Validation: checker_hook
  • Result type source: checked
  • Result ownership: fresh
  • Effects: static (6 declared effects)
  • Requirements: static (1 requirements)
  • Callable policy: static_only
  • Target support: linux-aarch64, linux-x86_64

EIR and runtime boundary

  • Typed EIR target: runtime.pcntl.sigtimedwait
  • Backend boundary: src/codegen/lower_inst/runtime_calls.rs resolves the typed target without PHP-name dispatch.

Signature summary

function pcntl_sigtimedwait(mixed $signals, mixed $info = [], int $seconds = 0, int $nanoseconds = 0): mixed

What the type checker enforces

  • Arity: takes 1–4 arguments (3 optional).
  • By-reference parameters: $info.
