Patch:
Fix for vrestore problems
State:
Supersedes patch OSF510-013 (13.00)
This patch fixes the following
problems:
A previous patch caused incomplete restores.
A warning message is displayed when the path for the first
file in a group of hard links is created without using original protection
codes and property lists.
A warning message is displayed and vrestore aborts if it fails
to malloc space for a property list.
A message which had been inserted at the end of the message
file had the wrong message category (this could cause messaging confusion).
An uninitialized variable in the code that restores property
lists could cause malloc failures, memory faults, an "error setting extended
attributes" message, and infinite loops using the -l option.
Corrupted property list information could cause an infinite
loop.
Fixes problems in the vdump command:
Failed to flag compressed extended attributes records that
are split across a vdump BLOCK boundary.
Overrides the -D option when source path describes a root
fileset (Note: If you want to back up quota files, you must not use the
-D option.)
Corrects "Rewinding" message to avoid a segfault
with Internationalized messages.
Fixes problems in the vrestore command
Fails to properly handle extended attributes records in compressed
archives.
This results in malloc failures, proplist corruption, program
abort, program crashes due to segfault or invalid memory access, and the
display of the error message "error setting extended attributes".
Fails to set extended attributes due to confusion over selective
restore of the associated file or directory.
Also results in display of
the error message "error setting extended attributes".
Selective restore of hardlinked files is incomplete when they
exist in different directories (fails to create directory for second occurrence
of file with same inode number).
The -Q option is added to vrestore to allow the user to request
that quota files are ignored (thus avoiding the time it takes to process them).

(228.00)
This patch fixes problems for threaded applications running
on Tru64 UNIX V5.1:
Fixes a bug in the POSIX Threads Library for Tru64 UNIX V5.1
where a terminating thread did not properly clear an enabled floating point
unit, causing invalid floating point state on the next thread that is run.
Fixes a bug in the POSIX Threads Library for Tru64 UNIX V5.1
that would result in a DECthreads error return of EINVAL from the pthread
mutex API routines.
This error would be seen only when the thread stack had
been user defined/changed, specifically seen when using the user level context
switching (ucontext) routines.
Fixes a bug in the POSIX Threads Library for Tru64 UNIX V5.1
that would result in a DECthreads Bugcheck and process termination.
Threaded
applications might encounter this problem when pthread_kill() is used on
a thread that is marked as blocked in the kernel.

This patch corrects the following
problems:
Fixes a problem of the getaddrinfo() library call returning
a failing status.
Increases the number of places of precision for formatted
printing of long doubles.
Fixes the problem that, on rare occasions, the C runtime library
atof() and strtod() functions (and other functions that may use them) may
produce an incorrect result.
The error would only be in the least significant
digit of the mantissa (a rounding error).
Fixes hangs in threaded programs with subprocesses created
with nfork(NULL).
Examining one of the hanging subprocesses shows that it
has called fopen() and is waiting for the iobptr mutex in _findiop().
Fixes the printing of 0.0 when precision is specified for
a %g type conversion.
Fixes a problem where a TZ environment variable setting of
":" yields incorrect (or missing) time zone information after calling tzset()
and incorrect error reporting from mktime().
A potential security vulnerability has been discovered where,
under certain circumstances, system integrity may be compromised.
This may
be in the form of improper file or privilege management.
Compaq has corrected
this potential vulnerability.

an application to fail if run on a RAD other than 0.
fixes a problem with the mallinfo() call which can cause
an application to fail if run on a RAD other than '0'.
Festores correct behavior that existed on pre-V5.0 releases
for ecvt() and fcvt().
Floating point exceptions and core dumps no longer
occur when denormalized values are passed to ecvt() and fcvt().
Resolves issues with customer applications that experienced
floating point exceptions and core dumps when passing denormalized values
to ecvt() and fcvt() that subsequently caused INFORMIX databases to crash.
Fixes the return values for vwprintf() functionality when
used with wide characters.
Increases the input buffer size limits for the scanf family
of functions to the MAXINT input buffer size.
Fixes the problem of optimized programs printing incorrect
values for long doubles.
Adds logic that implements maximum size checks for input width
descriptors on numeric scanf() format elements.
Corrects a regular expression performance problem in libc.
Fixes a potential online help build problem when dthelptag
is used to compile online help files in a multibyte locale.
Fixes regular expression handling with non-default locale
settings.

State:
New.
Supersedes patch OSF510-164 (253.00)
This patch
corrects the following problems:
Corrects pax/tar/cpio to properly extract explicitly specified
files.
When an archive contained a file with extended attributes and a different
file (occurring later in the archive) was specified to be extracted, improper
buffer pointer management resulted in the following display (example uses
tar):
tar: /dev/nrmt0h : This doesn't look like a tar archive
tar: /dev/nrmt0h : Skipping to next file...
tar: Memory allocation failed for extended data while reading :
Not enough space
The directory option was similarly affected.
In this case the information
for the specified file was not reported
Fixes a problem where the tar -F (Fasttar) option ignores
files named err, but does not ignore files named errs or directories named
SCCS and RCS.

Patch 290.00
OSF510-103
|
Patch:
Fixes problems in the Tru64 UNIX Assembler
State:
New.
Supersedes patch OSF510-132 (288.00)
This
patch corrects the following:
When assembling a .s file containing a data declaration directive
(such as .byte) that specifies a list of values greater than 74,
a fatal "yacc stack overflow" condition is raised.
A main procedure's prologue description will overwrite that
of an alternate entry point when they both share the same address and
they both specify their own .prologue directive.
A .s file that contains .align directives in its text section
that is assembled at an optimization level greater than O0 may
produce a series of zeros in its text section which, if executed, would
cause the program to halt.
The -arch and -tune command line switches were essentially
being ignored.
Code generated by the assembler for emulated ldb/ldbu/ldw/ldwu
instructions produces incorrect results leading to a linker optimization
that produces an invalid executable.
Code generated by the assembler for emulated ldb/ldbu/ldw/ldwu
instructions produces incorrect results leading to a linker optimization
that produces an invalid executable.
Code generated for loads with offsets larger than 32K is incorrect.
Incorrect addresses are generated when symbolic arithmetic
is used, and when the address in question extends beyond the intitial
64K boundary of a section.
A prodecure with no instructions causes the assembler to segfault.
A prodecure with no instructions causes line number generation
to segfault.
Data declared using the .gprel32 directive was not being longword
aligned.
The relocation count for a program that contains a section
that has in excess of 65535 reloctions will be incorrect, resulting
in a bad link and an invalid executable.
An entry (PDSC_FLAGS_BASE_REG_IS_FP) was not being set correctly
in a short-form stack-frame RPD when a .frame directive specified
register 15.
When two entry points to a procedure (main or alternate) share
the same address, the assembler generates four nop profiling
instruction sequences for each one when the -pg switch is specified.
This causes post-link tools, such as spike, problems.
When a main and an alternate entry point share both an address
and a prologue, the assembler associates the prologue with the
alternate entry and not the main, resulting in the assembler not generating
an RPD because it does not see a prologue for the main entry.
The assembler miscalculates the number of relocations present
in the .text section if a jmp/jsr instruction was specified without
a symbol as an operand.
This can result in a linker error.

Patch:
System crash when accessing the FDI floppy
State:
Supersedes patch OSF510-058 (84.00)
This patch
corrects the following:
Compaq has determined in laboratory testing that there is
a theoretical possibility that during read and write operations to the floppy
disk on DS10, DS10L and ES40 AlphaServers and XP900 AlphaStations, a single
byte of data may be inaccurately read or written without notice to the user
or system.
The potential for this anomaly exists only if floppy data read
and write operations are attempted while there is extremely heavy traffic
on these Alpha systems' internal input/output busses.
Although Compaq has
observed the anomaly only in laboratory tests designed to create atypical
system stresses, including almost constant use of the floppy disk drive,
we are supplying this patch to address this potential issue.
Corrects a potential system crash when accessing the FDI floppy.

This patch corrects the following:
This patch is required in order to use the SuperDLT1 tape
drive.
Fixes a problem encountered on a heavily loaded HSG80, in
which a device may become unavailable to other cluster members if a cluster
node crashes at the same time an error occurs on that device.
Prevents panics from occurring if AdvFS detects corruption
in the per-fileset frags file and attempts to work around the corruption.
Fixes AdvFS memory mapped file support so that it honors the
noatimes and readonly mount options when updating file timestamps.
A kernel memory fault can occur on an smp machine when one
thread is extending a clone frags file and another thread does a stat system
call on a file with a frag.
Provides an improvement to AdvFS performance when the first
bytes of user data (and subsequent storage requests) is written to a domain.
Corrects read-ahead behavior for AdvFS for both local and
NFS reads.
Read performance is increased by approximately 10% with the addition
of this patch.
This patch does not include any correctness fixes.
Fixes a problem on AlphaServer GS80, GS160, and GS320 systems
where, under a specific set of unlikely circumstances, it is possible for
Revision 4 PCA hardware to falsely report PCI hung bus errors.
This will
cause a uncorrectable hardware machine check and operating system panic.
This patch must be installed if the hardware configuration includes any Revision
4 PCA (IOP to PCI bus) adapters.
Fixes a kernel memory fault which can occur during scheduler
load balancing on a NUMA system.

Fixes a race condition which could result with either a Kernel
Memory Fault or a Kernel Unaligned Access in one of the AdvFS I/O queue manipulation
routines.
Fixes inaccuracy problems when using setrlimit/getrlimit with
a threaded application.
Addresses multiple issues for the KZPCC family of RAID Array
2000 (RA2000) controllers:
Fixes a hang seen while running collect and the vdump utility.
This patch prevents the hang in tok_wait from occurring.
Prevents stat(), lstat(), fstat(), statfs(), fstatfs(), getmntinfo(),
and getfsstat() from returning EOVERFLOW errors for programs compiled on Tru64
UNIX V4.0 or earlier.
Fixes a problem where threads can hang in x_load_inmem_xtnt_map().
Fixes a kernel memory fault when writing to /proc, while
anon_rss_enforce is set to 2.
Fixes an issue with lightweight wiring of pages and shared
memory regions.
Fixes a system panic when the system has at least one AdvFS
domain and the system is configured for lockmode=4 kernel lock statistics
collection.
Corrects some I/O rate fluctuations and thread unresponsiveness
that had been seen when vm free pages dropped to a low level and used pages
were being recycled.
In laboratory testing Compaq has observed that, under certain
circumstances, a possibility exists that inconsistent data may be written
to disk on some Tru64 UNIX V5.0A and V5.1 systems running AdvFS and direct
I/O.
Compaq became aware of this possibility only during laboratory testing.
To our knowledge, no customer has experienced this problem.
Compaq is alerting
customers to this potential problem as a precautionary measure.
The conditions under which this potential problem may occur are as follows:
An application writes to a file using AdvFS direct I/O and
the file had previously been opened for normal I/O (which by default is
cached).
Some but not all of the pages are still resident in Unified
Buffer Cache (UBC) memory.
Invalid data could occur when a single direct I/O write spans multiple
AdvFS pages, and some, but not all, of the pages are still in the UBC.
If
the file has been opened only for direct I/O and remains open for direct I/O,
the problem does not exist.
Applications that use direct I/O, such as Oracle, could be affected.
This patch addresses two types of system crashes:

|
Fixes a problem with the driver for Gigabit Ethernet adapters
(DEGPA-FA and DEGPA-TA) which prevented its use in a NetRAIN (Redundant Array
of Independent Network Adapters) set.
Fixes a problem where the setgid bit of a directory was not
being set when created if its parent directory has the setgid bit set.
Fixes issues with memory allocation attributes.
Fixes a bug in the POSIX Threads Library for Tru64 UNIX V5.1
where a terminating thread did not properly clear an enabled floating point
unit, causing an invalid floating point state on the next thread that was
run.
Fixes several virtual memory algorithms related to the allocation
and freeing of pages within the kernel.
Fixes panics which can occur if a signal is sent to a multi-threaded
task in which one or more threads are calling exit() or exec().
Fixes the corruption of the CAM hardware database when using
hwmgr.
This typically can result in a kernel memory fault when the database
is being written to disk after a hwmgr operation.
Corrects an AdvFS panic which can occur during a rmfset operation,
causing the following panic string:
rbf_delete_int: can't find bf attributes
Fixes an issue with some remote ioctls for tape/changer drivers
not working in a cluster.
Fixes a panic which comes from a page fault on a user buffer
while already holding the write lock.
Fixes a bug in the POSIX Threads Library for Tru64 UNIX V5.1
that would result in a DECthreads error return of EINVAL from the pthread
mutex API routines.
This error would be seen only when the thread stack had
been user defined/changed, specifically seen when using the user level context
switching (ucontext) routines.
Fixes a problem in which the system panicked with a kernel
memory fault while the class scheduler was being configured.
Fixes cluster hangs where I/O stops, and a hwmgr -view -clu
command does not return.
However, the systems will respond to pings.
This
is caused by the ubc_memory_purge in routine cfs_putpage being blocked when
doing FSOP_PUTPAGE.

Patch 399.00
continued
|
Fixes the following system panics:
A "simple_lock: lock already owned by cpu" panic when
anon_rss_enforce is non-zero and lockmode is set to 4.
This remove
occurs when a process, whose RSS (resident set size; the number of
pages a process can have in memory) limit is exceeded tries to expand
its heap.
A "panic: vm_page_activate: already active" panic that
can occur on a system during memory shortages.
An "mcs_lock: no queue entries available" panic that can
occur on a GS160 system.
This is caused by an abandoned page
mistakenly being reclaimed off the the 0/O hash.
The page is then
removed off a UBC free list where two stale page pointers were connected,
hereby connecting the ACTIVE and INACTIVE list.
When attempting to
deactivate pages (move them from the ACTIVE queue to the INACTIVE queue)
an INACTIVE page is encountered, which causes an inadvertant
failure to unlock the page.
Continued attempts to deactivate INACTIVE
pages results in the lock queue being filled.
This can also cause a
"kernel memory fault" panic.
Fixes a problem in which a heavy load placed on an HSG80 can
disable the device.
Fixes a timing window where flushing data to disk can be incomplete
when a system is going down, or if more than one thread calls reboot() without
first going through shutdown, /sbin/reboot, or /sbin/halt.
Fixes a system crash that could occur when calling nmadvise.
A potential security vulnerability has been discovered where,
under certain circumstances, system integrity may be compromised.
This may
be in the form of improper file or privilege management.
Compaq has corrected
this potential vulnerability.
Eliminates a kernel memory fault in AdvFS.
Fixes multiple problems with SCSI tape handling including
improvements to backup procedures, SCSI passthrough, an increase to the local
IO size for transfers, a fix for a system crash that can occur during a bus
reset, and a fix for a panic with the following panic string:
PWS_CCB_QUE_REMOVE: CCB NOT ON ANY LIST
Fixes a system hang caused by netisr queue corruption due
to a race condition that is primarily encountered by third party drivers
and layered products that call schednetisr_nospl().
Fixes a lockmode 4 panic in netisr_del_rad where netisr_del_rad
attempted to release a lock it did not hold.
Corrects the use of Granularlity Hints in a threaded application
program.
Fixes a problem with writing out crashdumps on systems with
their swap on Fibrechannel.

Fixes a kernel memory fault and invalid memory ifetch panic
which can occur in AlphaServer SC systems running Quadrics' RMS software.
Fixes a bug in the POSIX Threads Library for Tru64 UNIX V5.1
that would result in a DECthreads Bugcheck and process termination.
Threaded
applications might encounter this problem when pthread_kill() is used on
a thread that is marked as blocked in the kernel.
Corrects the behavior of the FIONBIO, FIOASYNC, and FIONREAD
ioctls in a cluster environment.
These commands would fail, returning ENOTTY
when they should have succeeded.
Fixes a problem in which the system call fcntl(fd, F_DUPFD,
15) fails with "too many files" even after fd limits have been increased.
Corrects two problems with the scheduler:
Provides support for activating temporary data logging on
a mount point.
Fixes a hang in the UFS file system.
Fixes kernel build failures due to an undefined ss_sched function.
Fixes a problem with the execution of interpreter programs
failing with a "file not found" error if the the total space used by the
environment variables and command arguments is close to a multiple of 8K
(page size).
Provides full KZPCC support in Version 2.0 of the I2O block
storage driver.
Restriction: For TCR V5.1 installations, KZPCC support is
restricted to data-only service; devices on the KZPCC controller cannot be
used for system or boot partitions in a cluster.
Additionally, this patch
fixes the problem where extraneous console messages will appear when hardware
is added or deleted.
Fixes a performance problem with V5.1 where threads doing
large I/O transfers could spend excess time in ubc_page_alloc().
Fixes nmadvise with a modification to VM to allow migration
of shared memory.
Provides functions to support EMC storage boxes that support
Persistent Reserves (SCSI command set) as defined by the final SCSI specification.
Fixes a kernel memory fault in GS series systems which have
mixed revision PCI adapters.
Fixes the following two issues:
A "u_anon_free: page_busy" system panic when using System
V shared memory locked by a single process.
Failures ranging from uninitialized simple_lock panics, kernel
memory fault panics, and process hangs, on GS320/160/80 systems configured
with at least one memory less quad.
