which resulted in a synchronization problem, causing the SCSI bus to hang.
Excessive I/O command timeouts when using KZPCM on CLIPPERs
causing disk I/O to be retried and fatal tape I/O errors.
Additionaly the
ITPSA driver now support the KZPCM, 8951U and 8952U adapters.
Support
has been added to identify hardware in event log.
Problem with the KZPCM driver.
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.
Several problems related to the ITPSA driver that supports
the KZPCM adapter.
Errors can occur while the system is processing a
SCSI bus or SCSI bus device reset request that is issued from the class
driver.
) Problem on the 8951U and 8952U adapters.
SCSI bus resets
are lost when these adapters are connected to single ended drives.
Fixes the following ITPSA driver problems:
The chip interrupt register fields in the error log are incorrect.
Lessens the opportunity of aborts being issued for an already
completed I/O.
A kernel memory fault panic caused by a SWS data structure
being released twice.
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.
A lockmode 4 panic on boot.

Fix For Print Queue Problem
State:
Supersedes patches OSF435-038 (103.00), OSF435-128 (151.00), OSF435-370 (548.00)
This patch corrects the following:
Includes one new print system feature for APX (which is not
documented in lpd, but rather in the APX docset), and improves the overall
print system.
Fixes a problem where, under certain circumstances, a print
queue becomes disabled and printing stops.
Fixes the following three problems:
When printing jobs, a timeout can occur after five minutes,
which causes some large print jobs to stop, and 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.
A problem where some print jobs will print out twice.
Fixes the following four problems:
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 once 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.

message:
log_flush_sync: pinpg error\n N1 = 5
Fixes a problem with multivolume domains with large frag files.

Fixes a problem when a processor is commanded to stop during
a heavy load but does not actually halt.
Fixes a problem when a setuid program is exec'ed, and the
error message "privileges disabled because of outstanding IPC access to
task" is issued.
Corrects a potential boot panic problem by limiting the size
of the bufcache.
This patch fixes the following two problems that occur on
an NFS file server using a Network Appliance server:
New files may not be listed in directory reads.
For example,
when the ls command is used not all the files may be listed.
When a directory listing is requested from a Network Appliance
server, more data than was requested may be returned and the extra
data is lost by the DIGITAL UNIX client.
The problem can be seen by entering
the ls command; not all the files on the server are listed.
A flaw in NFS client operation can result in a KMF panic.
Fixes a problem where a user application may receive an
EIO error back from an fsync() call.
A message size of zero passed to msgsnd() can result in
a kernel memory fault panic.
Corrects a performance problem with POSIX timers.
Avoids a "kernel memory fault" panic from sigsgdisp().
The
problem has only been seen when shutting down an Oracle database.
Corrects performance related problems.
A system running low
on free memory or showing heavy pagein activity will need this patch.
Corrects a small accounting problem where the measured time
for a process was an integral rather than mean value.
Fixes several problems in AdvFS.

Includes several corrections for AdvFS, ufs, and vfs.
This patch must be installed to allow the X.25 WAN layered
product to run on DIGITAL UNIX V4.0E.
Corrects a system performance problem on a freshly booted
AlphaServer 4000 and similar systems.
Fixes a routing corruption that could been seen as a kernel
memory fault or a corruption within the 128-byte kernel memory bucket.
Corrects a problem where incorrect NFS client locking caused
a KFM panic.
Fixes a problem where NFS clients may hang in the uninterruptable
state.
Fixes a problem in which the msleep() syscall was not marked
as a cancellation point.
This problem occurred only if your C programs were
complied using the -pthread switch.
Fixes a problem that can cause an NFS client application to
hang, or causes a "lock already owned by thread" panic when lockmode equals
4.
Fixes a problem with RPC where heavy traffic (such as mail
over NFS) may cause performance problems.
Fixes a problem with poor performance of NFS/UDP over a GigaBit
Ethernet network interface (DEGPA).
Fixes a rare problem in the NFS subsystem in which a "kernel
memory fault" panic will be seen originating from the free() routine either
when the NFS server daemon (nfsd) is processing a request or is shut down.
Fixes problems with sqrt instruction emulation and a rare
rounding problem with denormalized values.
Fixes a problem where the system crashes with the following
error message:
lw_remove: light weight wiring(s) found
Fixes a problem that causes a panic to occur at boot time
if the system has a large boot time memory requirement and only a portion
of memory has been tested.
Fixes a deadlock that can occur when a thread is in sigwaitprim(),
and a second signal in the sigwait set is being delievered.
An example
stack from of the sigwait thread is:
simple_lock_time_violation()
mpsleep()
sigwaitprim()
syscall()
_Xsyscall()
And the delivering threads stack would be:
psignal_internal()
kill()
syscall()
_Xsyscall()
Fixes a problem in the subsystem configuration bootstrap process
where a status variable might not get initialized correctly and therefore
subsequent entries from /etc/sysconfigtab might not get set correctly.

hang in cleanup_closed_list().
Corrects AdvFS problems involving clone filesets.
The statfs
syscall (used by df) was incorrectly returning zero blocks USED for clones.
The read-ahead code was incorrectly passing up opportunities to do read-ahead
on clone filesets, resulting in a large performance penalty.
Corrects two problems in AdvFS property list handling:
Creation of property lists entries in AdvFS filesets with
no available mcells will result in kernel memory fault (kmf).
The get_proplist_entry function (used to disassemble the property
list buffer returned by the "getproplist" system call) returned incorrect
name length on property list names longer than 127 characters.
