Patch Name: PHKL_21674 Patch Description: s700 10.20 Async driver cumulative patch Creation Date: 00/05/08 Post Date: 00/05/09 Hardware Platforms - OS Releases: s700: 10.20 Products: N/A Filesets: OS-Core.CORE-KRN Automatic Reboot?: Yes Status: General Release Critical: No Path Name: /hp-ux_patches/s700/10.X/PHKL_21674 Symptoms: PHKL_21674: (SR: 8606112739 CR: JAGab88679) Async driver I/O completion notifications don't work when used in conjunction with select(2) system call. PHKL_10163: If a user process changes its process group after opening the async driver, all subsequent requests will be refused with an EBUSY error. Defect Description: PHKL_21674: (SR: 8606112739 CR: JAGab88679) Async driver's IO completion flag notification was checked in wrong sequence, when used in conjunction with select. Resolution: Changed sequence to check for IO notification flag before checking other types of IO completions. PHKL_10163: The code that used to check for being called by the opening process was changed to check the process group, instead. It now checks both.
