Here's a solution for icmpv6 ping with php, dropping it here in case if someone has problems with icmpv6 with php.

<?php
$host = "2a03:2880:f11b:83:face:b00c:0:25de";
$timeout = 100000;
$count = 3;
echo "Latency: ". round(1000 * pingv6($host,$timeout,$count),5) ." ms \n";

function pingv6($target,$timeout,$count) {
    echo "target is ipv6 address, ". getprotobyname('ipv6-icmp'). " \n";
    /* create the socket, the last '1' denotes ICMP */
    $socket = socket_create(AF_INET6, SOCK_RAW, getprotobyname('ipv6-icmp'));
    /* set socket receive timeout to 1 second */
    $sec=intval($timeout/1000);
    $usec=$timeout%1000*1000;
    socket_set_option($socket, SOL_SOCKET, SO_RCVTIMEO, array("sec"=>$sec, "usec"=>$usec));
    /* socket package parameters */
    $type = "\x80";
    $seqNumber = chr(floor($i/256)%256) . chr($i%256);
    $checksum= "\x00\x00";
    $code = "\x00";
    $identifier = chr(rand(0,255)) . chr(rand(0,255));
    $msg = "!\"#$%&'()*+,-./1234567";
    $package = $type.$code.$checksum.$identifier.$seqNumber.$msg;
        $checksum = icmpChecksum($package);
        $package = $type.$code.$checksum.$identifier.$seqNumber.$msg;
    /* socket connect */
    if(@socket_connect($socket, $target, null)){
        for($i = 0; $i < $count; $i++){
                list($start_usec, $start_sec) = explode(" ", microtime());
                $start_time = ((float) $start_usec + (float) $start_sec);
                $startTime = microtime(true);
                socket_send($socket, $package, strLen($package), 0);
                while ($startTime + $timeout*1000 > microtime(true)){
                        if(socket_read($socket, 255) !== false) {
                                list($end_usec, $end_sec) = explode(" ", microtime());
                                $end_time = ((float) $end_usec + (float) $end_sec);
                                $total_time = $end_time - $start_time;
                                echo "round trip time (".$i."): ". $total_time ."\n";
                                return $total_time;
                                break;
                        }else{
                                return "null";
                                echo "Timed out (".$i."), Got no echo reply\n";
                                break;
                        }
                }
            usleep($interval*1000);
        }
        socket_close($socket);
    }
}

function icmpChecksum($data){
if (strlen($data)%2) $data .= "\x00";
$bit = unpack('n*', $data);
$sum = array_sum($bit);
while ($sum >> 16)
  $sum = ($sum >> 16) + ($sum & 0xffff);
return pack('n*', ~$sum);
}
