Patch Name: PHKL_16880 Patch Description: s700 10.20 a fix involving fcntl and mmap interactions Creation Date: 98/11/13 Post Date: 98/12/02 Hardware Platforms - OS Releases: s700: 10.20 Products: N/A Filesets: OS-Core.CORE-KRN Automatic Reboot?: Yes Status: General Superseded Critical: No Path Name: /hp-ux_patches/s700/10.X/PHKL_16880 Symptoms: PHKL_16880: It is possible for "munmap" to unexpectedly release the lock that is obtained from "fcntl". The application may experience an unexpected behavior because of this. Therefore, this patch is to rectify this unexpected behavior. Defect Description: PHKL_16880: To correct the problem, the associations between "memory mapped file" and the system-wide file table reference count is removed. (i.e. The reference count is no longer stored in the system wide file table, however, the vnode reference counter still gets updated when "mmap" and "munmap".)

Back up your system before installing a patch. 2. Login as root. 3. Copy the patch to the /tmp directory. 4. Move to the /tmp directory and unshar the patch: cd /tmp sh PHKL_16880 5a. For a standalone system, run swinstall to install the patch: swinstall -x autoreboot=true -x match_target=true \ -s /tmp/PHKL_16880.depot 5b. For a homogeneous NFS Diskless cluster run swcluster on the server to install the patch on the server and the clients: swcluster -i -b This will invoke swcluster in the interactive mode and force all clients to be shut down. WARNING: All cluster clients must be shut down prior to the patch installation. Installing the patch while the clients are booted is unsupported and can lead to serious problems. The swcluster command will invoke an swinstall session in which you must specify: alternate root path - default is /export/shared_root/OS_700 source depot path - /tmp/PHKL_16880.depot To complete the installation, select the patch by choosing "Actions -> Match What Target Has" and then "Actions -> Install" from the Menubar. 5c. For a heterogeneous NFS Diskless cluster: - run swinstall on the server as in step 5a to install the patch on the cluster server. - run swcluster on the server as in step 5b to install the patch on the cluster clients. By default swinstall will archive the original software in /var/adm/sw/patch/PHKL_16880. If you do not wish to retain a copy of the original software, you can create an empty file named /var/adm/sw/patch/PATCH_NOSAVE. Warning: If this file exists when a patch is installed, the patch cannot be deinstalled. Please be careful when using this feature. It is recommended that you move the PHKL_16880.text file to /var/adm/sw/patch for future reference. To put this patch on a magnetic tape and install from the tape drive, use the command: dd if=/tmp/PHKL_16880.depot of=/dev/rmt/0m bs=2k Special Installation Instructions: This patch depends on base patch PHKL_16750 . For successful installation please insure that PHKL_16750 is in the same depot with PHKL_16880, or PHKL_16750 is already installed.
