Linker erroneously tries to read too many bytes from one of the input object files; if it hits EOF, it incorrectly reports "unexpected EOF" in milli.a. 2. The +e option explicitly exports one symbol while all others are hidden. For PBO links, there are certain symbols that require export; the linker needs to do this. 3. Linker emits "absolute branch is out of range" for dyncall_external due to internal housekeeping bug. 4. Linker segv when called with -I and when attempting to export a symbol which is a secondary definition. PHSS_9063: Linker and icrt0.o performance fixes for PBO and selective inline (ld/ucomp options) capabilities. PHSS_9062: see PHSS_9063 PHSS_8831: see PHSS_9063 PHSS_8555: The /usr/lib/dld.sl file was removed from the patch due to incompatibilities with certain programs, like /usr/sbin/sendmail. PHSS_8358: Som tool support for magic number SHMEM_MAGIC PHSS_8075: Special release ld(1) patch. PHSS_7886: ld did not correctly handle stripping of an a.out with multiple init pointers per space. PHSS_7683: A programming error regarding handling of more than one input object. A variable containing a section ($ANS$) index, was only being initialized once for the entire program run, rather than once for each input object. PHSS_7452: This patch is required for the next release of C++ and FORTRAN.C++ and FORTRAN will emit fixups which are unknown to the previous ld. PHSS_7013: dld.sl expected the shared library name to end in ".sl" but did not check for this. PHSS_6246: nm(1) bug in the handling of the -N switch PHSS_5956: In some cases, specially when there is a long absolute internal shlib name embedded in the shared library, the linker will get a segmentation fault and dump core while processing that shared library. PHSS_5724: In some cases, specially when there are a lot of shared globals in a program, and many references to the shared globals exist, a defect in the linker's data copying elimination function causes missing import entries in the a.out resulted in core-dumped. Using a ld's option from the C compiler ("-Wl,-Fc") to disable data copying elimination or link the program archive would also fix this problem.

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 PHSS_15380 5a. For a standalone system, run swinstall to install the patch: swinstall -x autoreboot=true -x match_target=true \ -s /tmp/PHSS_15380.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/PHSS_15380.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/PHSS_15380. 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 PHSS_15380.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/PHSS_15380.depot of=/dev/rmt/0m bs=2k Special Installation Instructions: None
