The description of the panics follows: PANIC: "m_copym sanity" 0 boot src/kernel/arch/alpha/machdep.c 1 panic src/kernel/bsd/subr_prf.c 2 event_timeout src/kernel/arch/alpha/cpu.c 3 pmap_update_send src/kernel/arch/alpha/pmap_update.c 4 pmap_tbsync src/kernel/arch/alpha/pmap.c 5 pmap_copy_on_write src/kernel/arch/alpha/pmap.c 6 pmap_page_protect src/kernel/arch/alpha/pmap.c 7 ubc_flush_dirty_age src/kernel/vfs/vfs_ubc.c 8 ubc_flush_dirty src/kernel/vfs/vfs_ubc.c 9 mntflushbuf src/kernel/vfs/vfs_bio.c 10 boot src/kernel/arch/alpha/machdep.c 11 panic src/kernel/bsd/subr_prf.c 12 m_copym src/kernel/bsd/uipc_mbuf.c 13 tcp_output src/kernel/netinet/tcp_output.c 14 tcp_input src/kernel/netinet/tcp_input.c 15 ipintr src/kernel/netinet/ip_input.c 16 netisr_thread src/kernel/net/netisr.c PANIC: "Unaligned kernel space access from kernel mode" 0 stop_secondary_cpu src/kernel/arch/alpha/cpu.c 1 panic src/kernel/bsd/subr_prf.c 2 event_timeout src/kernel/arch/alpha/cpu.c 3 xcpu_puts src/kernel/bsd/subr_prf.c 4 printf src/kernel/bsd/subr_prf.c 5 panic src/kernel/bsd/subr_prf.c 6 afault_trap src/kernel/arch/alpha/trap.c 7 _XentUna src/kernel/arch/alpha/locore.s 8 tcp_dooptions src/kernel/netinet/tcp_input.c 9 tcp_input src/kernel/netinet/tcp_input.c 10 ipintr src/kernel/netinet/ip_input.c 11 netisr_thread src/kernel/net/netisr.c The Patch Kit Installation Instructions and the Patch Summary and Release Notes documents provide patch kit installation and removal instructions and a summary of each patch. Please read these documents prior to installing patches on your system. The patches in this ERP kit will also be available in the next mainstream patch kit - HP Tru64 UNIX V5.1B-5. INSTALLATION NOTES: 1) Install this kit with the dupatch utility that is included in the patch kit. You may need to baseline your system if you have manually changed system files on your system. The dupatch utility provides the baselining capability. 2) The patch in this ERP kit does not have any file intersections with any other ERP available at this time for this product version. 3) This ERP kit will NOT install over any Customer Specific Patches (CSPs) which have file intersections with this ERP kit. Contact your normal Service Provider for assistance if the installation of this ERP kit is blocked by any of your installed CSPs. INSTALLATION PREREQUISITES: You must have installed HP Tru64 UNIX V5.1B-2 PK4 (BL25) prior to installing this Early Release Patch Kit. SUPERSEDE INFORMATION: None KNOWN PROBLEMS WITH THE PATCH KIT: None. RELEASE NOTES FOR T64KIT1000425-V51BB25-E-20060301: Release Notes This document summarizes the contents and special instructions for the Tru64 UNIX V5.1B patches contained in this kit. For information about installing or removing patches, baselining, and general patch management, see the Patch Kit Installation Instructions document. 1 Release Notes This Early Release Patch Kit Distribution contains: - fixes that resolve the problem(s) reported in: o 19210 * for Tru64 UNIX V5.1B T64V51BB25AS0004-20040616.tar (BL25) This kit includes a patch which requires system reboot. The patches in this kit are being released early for general customer use. Refer to the Release Notes for a summary of each patch and installation prerequisites. Patches in this kit are installed by running dupatch from the directory in which the kit was untarred. For example, as root on the target system: > mkdir -p /tmp/CSPkit1 > cd /tmp/CSPkit1 > > tar -xpvf DUV40D13-C0044900-1285-20000328.tar > cd patch_kit > ./dupatch 2 Special Instructions SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS for Tru64 UNIX V5.1B Patch C1450.01 3 Summary of CSPatches contained in this kit Tru64 UNIX V5.1B PatchId Summary Of Fix ---------------------------------------- C1450.01 Patch for unaligned KMA & mcopy_m sanity 4 Additional information from Engineering None 5 Affected system files This patch delivers the following files: Tru64 UNIX V5.1B Patch C1450.01 ./sys/BINARY/inet.mod CHECKSUM: 54256 568 SUBSET: OSFBIN540 ./sys/BINARY/ipv6.mod CHECKSUM: 50850 428 SUBSET: OSFBIN540 ./sys/BINARY/net.mod CHECKSUM: 07409 337 SUBSET: OSFBIN540 [R] UNIX is a registered trademark in the United States and other countries licensed exclusively through X/Open Company Limited.
