例子1(popen):
<?php

    echo date('Y-m-d H:i:s')."\n";
    echo shell_exec('php -r \'sleep(1); echo date("Y-m-d H:i:s")." by shell_exec:blocking\n";\'');       //阻塞
    $pipe1 =  popen('php -r \'sleep(2); echo date("Y-m-d H:i:s")." by popen1:non-blocking\n";\'', 'r');  //非阻塞(管道)
    $pipe2 =  popen('php -r \'sleep(1); echo date("Y-m-d H:i:s")." by popen2:non-blocking\n";\'', 'r');  //非阻塞(管道)
    echo date('Y-m-d H:i:s')."\n";
    register_shutdown_function(function() use ($pipe1, $pipe2) { //事件驱动(脚本结束事件),异步回调
        echo stream_get_contents($pipe1); //输出子进程返回的数据
        echo stream_get_contents($pipe2); //输出子进程返回的数据
        pclose($pipe1);

例子2(proc_open):

        array(
            0 => array('pipe','r'), //stdin (用fwrite写入数据给管道)
            1 => array('pipe','w'), //stdout(用stream_get_contents获取管道输出)
            2 => array('pipe','w'), //stderr(用stream_get_contents获取管道输出)
            //2 => array('file','/tmp/err.txt','a') //stderr(写入到文件)
        ), 
        $pipes, //管道(stdin/stdout/stderr)
        '/tmp', //当前PHP进程的工作目录
        array('foo' => 'bar') //php.ini 配置 variables_order = "EGPCS" 其中E表示$_ENV,否则$_ENV输出为空
    );
    //var_dump($pipes); //resource of type (stream)
    if(is_resource($proc)) {
        //stdin
        $stdin = serialize(array('time' => time()));
        fwrite($pipes[0], $stdin); //把参数传给脚本task.php
        fclose($pipes[0]); //fclose关闭管道后proc_close才能退出子进程,否则会发生死锁

foo();
//输出:

  'stderr' => '',
  'status' => 0,
