Defect Description:
	PHSS_17903:
	    Object Debugging implementation

	Resolution:
	    Enhancement

	- JAGaa80382:
	    Failure for PBO instrumented child to update flow.data
	    (UX10.20)
	Resolution:
	    New environment variable "PBO_ARGV0" has been added to
	    specify the name of the executable to be profiled.

	- JAGaa80232:
	    ld -b doesn't report all duplicate symbol errors
	Resolution:
	    The check to find duplicate symbols and abort has been
	    is done only after all the som files have been
	    processed.

	- JAGaa93940:
	    ld -r link corrupts symbol_info field for the first
	    bss symbol
	Resolution:
	    Inappropriate comparison of space and subspace ids
	    caused this problem and this was fixed.

	-  JAGaa80631
	    odump -unwind -titles missing try/catch description
	Resolution:
	    New output statements were added to explain the meaning
	    of the "e,I,c,s,a" flags.

	- JAGaa95862
	    OBJDEBUG - incorrect dir name is generated in linkmap
	Resolution:
	    Problem has been corrected to generate correct dir name.

	- JAGab00066:
	    ld32 core dumps when +linkmap is used and no dir name
	   specified with .o
	Resolution:
	    Specify the absolute path or relative path name for
	    each of the object files.

	- JAGaa95816
	    $DEBUG$ is not copied during non-objdbg links, if
	    $IGNDBG is present
	Resolution:
	    Using a global flag to record object mode and checking
	    the flag to determine whether or not to copy over the
	    DEBUG to the output file is appropriate.

	- JAGab03632:
	   $IGNDBG$ space in end.o file causes purify to fail
	Resolution:
	    A new bit field, "is_ignore_dbg", was added to the
	    space_dictionary record. This is used the linker to use
	    $DEBUG$ space instead of $IGNDBG$ space.

	- JAGab00075:
	    +smartbuild option needs to be backported to 10.X ld
	Resolution:
	    Changes were made to allow new option
	    '+Oreusedir=pathname' to the linker line. This pathname
	    will then be passed on to the ucomp as one of its
	    parameters.

	PHSS_17544:
	    Shared vtable implementation

	Resolution:
	    Enhancement.

	PHSS_15380:
	    Performance enhancements:
	    Hashtable sharing between ld
	    and dld.

	PHSS_11669:
	    Added -Fz internal option

	PHSS_10764:
	1. OpenGL fast procedure call support in linker.
	2. linker (ld)  options to support tuning:
	    - Oselect for tuning application performance
	    - k option for avoiding creation of executable
	      when errors occur
	3. chatr changes to support tuning:
	    - pd/+pi set page sizes
	    - k enable/disable option for kernel assisted
	      branch prediction
	4. fastbind(1) coredumps on large executables

	PHSS_10438:
	   Incorrect hide list hashing algorithm.

	   fastbind(1) dumps core. fastbind(1) had several
	   small problems with reading/writing SOM files.

	   see PHSS_10205

	PHSS_10203:
	   see PHSS_10205

	PHSS_9400:
	1. 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.

Installation Instructions:
	Please review all instructions and the Hewlett-Packard
	SupportLine User Guide or your Hewlett-Packard support terms
	and conditions for precautions, scope of license,
	restrictions, and, limitation of liability and warranties,
	before installing this patch.
	------------------------------------------------------------
	1. 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_17903

	5a. For a standalone system, run swinstall to install the
	    patch:

		swinstall -x autoreboot=true -x match_target=true \
			-s /tmp/PHSS_17903.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_17903.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_17903.  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_17903.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_17903.depot of=/dev/rmt/0m bs=2k
