PROBLEM: (QAR 51798) (Patch ID: OSF410-065) ******** This patch fixes a problem with the cpio command in which cpio fails to create multiple archives on 150 MB or 250 MB tape. The system displays the following error message: /dev/CTAPE1 weof 1 failed: I/O error ERROR: Cpio operation failed. PROBLEM: (QAR 56151) (Patch ID: OSF410-138) ******** This patch fixes a problem where during tape operations, the SPACE commands can not be interrupted. PROBLEM: (QAR 55173,QAR 57577) (Patch ID: OSF410-152) ******** This patch fixes a problem in which a system panics with a "kernel memory fault" error message. The problem occurs when a tape drive is plugged into the slot previously occupied by a disk. > 0 boot(0x0, 0xfffffc00029bb080, 0x2c0000002c, 0x2d, 0x1) ["../../../../src/kernel/arch/alpha/machdep.c":2530, 0xfffffc000046ecd4] 1 panic(s = 0xfffffc00007ca420 = "kernel memory fault") ["../../../../src/kernel/bsd/subr_prf.c":791, 0xfffffc000028608c] 2 trap() ["../../../../src/kernel/arch/alpha/trap.c":1492, 0xfffffc0000476520] 3 _XentMM(0x4, 0xfffffc0000517280, 0xfffffc0000854ec0, 0x88, 0x35) ["../../../../src/kernel/arch/alpha/locore.s":1392, 0xfffffc000046b294] 4 ctape_open(devt = 0x0, flags = 0x0, fmt = 0x0) ["../../../../src/kernel/io/ cam/cam_tape.c":1496, 0xfffffc000051727c] 5 spec_open(0x15, 0xffffffff80808001, 0x0, 0xfffffc0000904403, 0xfffffc0000904403) ["../../../../src/kernel/vfs/spec_vnops.c":1406, 0xfffffc000041095c] 6 vn_open(0xffffffff854538e0, 0xffffffff854538f0, 0x0, 0xffffffff85453d48, 0x100000003) ["../../../../src/kernel/vfs/vfs_vnops.c":613, 0xfffffc00004321dc] 7 copen(0xfffffc00008524d0, 0xfffffc000119ca80, 0x1, 0x100000003, 0xfffffc0002a40280) ["../../../../src/kernel/vfs/vfs_syscalls.c":2328, 0xfffffc000042583c] 8 open(0x1, 0x100000003, 0xfffffc0002a40280, 0x21, 0xfffffc0000474374) ["../../../../src/kernel/vfs/vfs_syscalls.c":2267, 0xfffffc0000425720] 9 syscall(0x1, 0x1260, 0x27ef35266c31, 0x3ff800d2e88, 0x2d) ["../../../../src/kernel/arch/alpha/syscall_trap.c":549, 0xfffffc0000474370] 10 _Xsyscall(0x8, 0x3ff800d1a48, 0x140009030, 0x11ffff556, 0x8000) ["../../../ ../src/kernel/arch/alpha/locore.s":1177, 0xfffffc000046b084] End Trace for machine_slot[paniccpu].cpu_panic_thread: PROBLEM: (QAR 56151) (Patch ID: OSF410-405149) ******** This patch fixes a problem where during tape operations, the SPACE commands can not be interrupted.
