Patch 444.00
continued
|
Fixes the following vrestore problems:
The command was slow to complete when a partial restore
operation was requested.
The command failed to ignore extended attribute records
for the files which were not requested for a vrestore operation.
Fixes problem with vrestore where vrestore fails to restore
certain files and directories having ACLs from a compressed vdump saveset,
reporting:
vrestore: error setting extended attributes 22
A previous patch caused incomplete restores.
A warning message is displayed when the path for the first
file in a group of hardlinks 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 (could cause messaging confusion).
An uninitialized variable in the code that restores property
lists could cause malloc failures, memory faults, "error setting extended
attributes", and infinite loops using the -l option.
Corrupted property list information could cause an infinite
loop.
Fixes the following problems the vdump command:
Fixes a problem where the vdump command will sometimes store
symbolic link files as directories in the vdump archive.
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 backup quota files, you must not use the -D
option.
Corrects "Rewinding" message to avoid a segfault with Internationalized
messages.
Fixes the following problems with 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 file or directory associated.
Also results in display of
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 the the quota files are ignored (thus avoiding the time it takes to process
them).

Patch:
Fix for kmf on EV6 systems using ITPSA driver
State:
Supersedes patches OSF500-002 (1.00), OSF500-104 (68.00),
OSF500-201 (305.00), OSF500-385 (511.00)
This patch corrects
the following problems on the KZPCM and 8952U adapters:
A panic, machine check, or hang can occur when aborting an
I/O due to a command timeout or aborting an application program with pending
I/Os.
Fixes problems related to the ITPSA driver where errors can
occur while the system is processing a SCSI bus or SCSI bus device reset
request that is issued.
Includes a fix to a problem on the 8951U and 8952U adapters.
SCSI bus resets are lost when these adapters are connected to single ended
drives.
Fixes a lockmode 4 panic on boot.
Fixes a problem where chip interrupt register fields in
error log are incorrect.
Fixes that lessen the opportunity of aborts being issued for
an already completed I/O.
Fixes a kernel memory fault panic caused by a SWS data structure
being released twice.
Fixes a simple lock timeout panic.
It was possible for a
bus reset to be generated before the previous bus reset was processed
causing excessive processing within the ISR.
Fixes a problem with the ITPSA driver.
The driver negotiated
for ULTRA2 speed when it was attached to a single-ended bus.
Fixes a problem with ITPSA driver in which the system will
panic in itpsa_allocReq() on boot when lockmode=4 is set.
Fixes a problem with some slower tape devices serviced by
the ITPSA driver by lengthening the timeout value used.
Fixes a problem that can cause a simple lock timeout or a
kernel memory fault on EV6 systems using the ITPSA driver.

Patch:
Various print fixes
State:
Supersedes patches OSF500-164 (306.00), OSF500-256 (307.00), OSF500-264 (308.00),
OSF500-185 (309.00), OSF500-301 (311.00)
This patch corrects the
following:
When printing jobs, a timeout can occur after five minutes
which causes some large print jobs to stop, then resume printing from
the beginning of the print job.
When slave lpd daemons try to process jobs on the print queue,
some of them can fail to obtain a lock on the lock file, and exit with
an error.
Print jobs will print out twice.
A remote print job may fail to print, with the error message:
lstat/open failed for dfA... no such file or directory
If a print job is printing, and the connection to the remote
printer is lost, the print job does not resume printing after the connection
is restored.
Sometimes, as sequence numbers wrap around from 999 to 000,
job 000 gets submitted before, and prints before, job 999.
lpstat -u output is incorrect.
When using the I18N ya option, the queue daemon filters will
terminate after 32 jobs.
Under certain circumstances, print jobs are terminated when
printing to certain printers that are connected to a DECserver through
TCP/IP.
When lpd reads any data from the printer that has not been
read, for local and remote connections, the read-backs for remote connections
cause an additional 2-second time out which may cause a job-submit
failure on the job-number wraparound.
Corrects a problem in which, under certain conditions, unnecessary
error messages are written to the lpr.log file.
A user is unable to delete a print job from a remote system
with a hostname greater than 32 characters because the hostname was truncated.
When a TCP/IP connection fails, the retry algorithm would
take longer to print jobs due to a long retry interval.
A timing hole during lpd last-job completion and shutdown
needed to be closed.
It was not possible to print to the lpd queue using Windows
2000.
Introduces the JJ /etc/printcap parameter, which allows the
user to choose either one TCP/IP connection for all jobs in the print queue
(JJ=1), or a TCP/IP connection for each job in the print queue ( ).
It also
closes a timing hole that existed when lpd was shutting down.
Fixes a problem in which lpd hangs when printing to advanced
server queues (using /dev/null).

Patch 523.00
OSF500-392

Patch:
Fixes heartbeat timer in memory channel driver
State:
New
This patch corrects the following:
Fixes an incorrect heartbeat timer within the memory channel
driver which caused rail failures to be incorrectly reported on memory channel
Version 2 cards.
With the heartbeat timer set too short, the system can be
erroneously led to believe a hardware failure has occurred.
Messages of the
form "rmerror_int: ..." are output to the messages file containing an error_type
which has bit 29 set in error_type (heartbeat timeout).
The binary error
log will also have this data.
Typically, the error_type data will be 0xe00000000.
The messages are followed by the system hanging or panicking.
When panicking,
the following message is produced:
panic (cpu 0): rm_failover_if_necessary, both rails bad
A real hardware failure produces the same symptoms and stack trace.
For example, having an error_type of 0xe00000002 indicates a write transmit
hardware fatal failure.

OSF500-190 (392.00), OSF500-344 (575.00), OSF500-348 (576.00)
This patch corrects the following:
Fixes a problem where the linker (ld) would insert incorrect
values for the symbols etext and _etext when building kernels larger than
4 MB.
Fixes a problem where the linker (ld) could not read arguments
longer than 1024 characters in input files.
This also adds proper support
for line continuation characters.
Fixes a problem where the linker and OM would not properly
process a large (multi-GOT) image in the presence of the -om option.
This
patch also fixes a problem with the linker not properly handling scTlsUndefined
symbols.
Including a shared library on a link line twice with another
library in between caused unresolved symbols in some cases.
Linking large applications with -om -call_shared with very
large numbers of external symbols sometimes failed to link.
Fixes two errors that occur when using the -f switch with
the linker (ld):
Fixes a problem where the linker defined symbol _fpdata would
end up being undefined if it was referenced by a program but not used by the
linker.
Fixes two problems in the linker where it would erroneously
report "multiply defined symbol" errors or "unresolved symbol" errors:
Modifies the linker's symbol resolution to enable it to
recognize when a reference to a symbol defined in a shared library is replaced
by a symbol defined in an object file or archive.
Modifies the linker to cause it to re-scan shared libraries
before reporting unresolved symbols.
Fixes a problem where the linker may incorrectly optimize
the jsr Alpha instruction when linking large applications at -O2 or higher.
This could result in an incorrect function call.
The likelihood of encountering
this problem is extremely rare because numerous low-level conditions must
also be true during the link.
Fixes a problem where the linker defined symbol _fpdata would
end up being undefined if it was referenced by a program but not used by the
linker.

Patch:
System may core dump when accessing FDI floppy
State:
Supersedes patches OSF500-187 (435.00), OSF500-325 (437.00)
This patch corrects the following:
Fixes a problem with the floppy driver which causes data inconsistencies.
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 VS10 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.
