As Cond (nor Mutex) is good for queuing tasks, and arrays/objects stored a "serialized" (can't use it as excepted for signals outside the run()) here is a simple task queue trait:
<?php
define
('T',1000000);
trait
TaskQueue{
    private
$queue_len = 0;
    private
$queue_pointer = 0;
    private
$queue_curr = 0;
    protected function
queueInit(){$this->queue_len = 0; $this->queue_pointer = 0; $this->queue_curr = 0;}
    protected function
getNextQueued(){
        if (
$this->queue_len == 0) return null;
       
$p = $this->queue_curr;
       
$x = 0;
       
$ret = [];
        do{
           
$key = "queue_func_{$p}";
            if (
$this->$key){
               
$ret['func'] = $this->$key;
                unset(
$this->$key);
               
$key = "queue_params_{$p}";
               
$prs = $this->$key;
                unset(
$this->$key);
               
$ret['params'] = [];
                for (
$i = 0; $i < $prs; $i++){
                   
$key = "queue_param_{$p}_{$i}";
                   
$ret['params'][] =  $this->$key;
                    unset(
$this->$key);
                }
               
$this->queue_len--;
               
$this->queue_curr++;
                return
$ret;
            }
            else
$p++;
            if (
$x++ > 1000){   // the queue is corrupt
               
echo "\n\t\t task queue is corrupt for ".get_called_class()."\n";

very useful if you need syncronization from an outside event (ie: async socket read/write - your run() takes care of reading with timeout / signalig on_packet events, but writing may occur at any time (ie async heartbeeting) and fwrite($sock) while stream_select($sock) is waiting for timeout causes segfaults...)
