4. _B_u_g__F_i_x_e_s
This section of the release notes lists bugs that have been
fixed in IRIX 6.2 through IRIX 6.5 and in IRIX Maintenance
Release. Bug numbers from the Silicon Graphics bug tracking
system are included for reference.
4.1 _I_n_s_t_a_l_l_a_t_i_o_n__t_o_o_l_s
4.1.1 _B_u_g_s__f_i_x_e_d__i_n__I_R_I_X__6_._5_._1_2
+o 777049: If you go INST ADMIN set dist not functioning
properly.
4.1.2 _B_u_g_s__f_i_x_e_d__i_n__I_R_I_X__6_._5_._1_1
+o 681346: "bootpadd" script misses "0 at tthe end of
"printf" command format string
+o 777290: roboinst will not work by using -f and -F
together
+o 791751: -t flag in roboinst needs more work
+o 800887: bootpadd does not update /etc/bootptab
4.1.3 _B_u_g_s__f_i_x_e_d__i_n__I_R_I_X__6_._5_._8
+o 639763: roboinst_config warns bogusly about remainder
+o 689966: Roboinst disk confusion on Onyx/Challenge
4.1.4 _B_u_g_s__f_i_x_e_d__i_n__I_R_I_X__6_._5_._7
+o 650855: Discrepancy between man pages and
functionality for 'inst -n' (dryrun mode)
4.1.5 _B_u_g_s__f_i_x_e_d__i_n__I_R_I_X__6_._5_._5
+o 624391, 624408, 624412, 624419, 624422, 656417,656420:
This release of the MMSC presents a significant
improvement in the stability of the MMSC over the
previous releases. There was a bug in the MMSC firmware
that manifested itself in many different ways. It
caused MMSC to timeout on certain commands and then
become unstable, such as described in bugs PV #:
624391, 624408, 624412, 624419, 624422, 656417, 656420.
This bug was related to poor buffer management between
various MMSC processes. This bug is fixed in this
release, which results in much greater stability of the
- 2 -
MMSC. Also new commands have been added to aid in
working around some of the previous problems reported
with the MMSC. Here are the descriptions of new
commands. Each description explains what problems the
command migh help solving.
ARBITER
Usage:
arbiter
Successful return:
OK:RACKNUM
Definition:
Returns the current arbiter of the MMSC
network in a
multi-rack system. The arbiter is the
MMSC responsible
for resolving name conflict when new
MMSCs are
introduced to the network. The purpose
of this command
is to assist users who want to swap one
MMSC for another
one. This can usually be done without
disturbing other
MMSCs on the network, UNLESS the MMSC
which is being
swapped out is the arbiter MMSC. In
that case, all the
MMSCs should be reset after the swap,
and all the rack
ids should be checked and set correctly
if necessary
using the RACKID command.
MACADDR
Usage:
macaddr
Successful return:
OK XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX
Definition:
This reports the ethernet address of
the ethernet card
in the MMSC. This command should be
used if the MMSC
network is acting abnormally. While it
should never
happen in theory, it has happened in
the past when
2 MMSCs on the same network had the
same ethernet
- 3 -
address. This command will help in
finding this
problem. One of the 2 MMSCs that share
the same address
should be replaced.
NUMRACKS
Usage:
numracks
Successful return:
OK X
Definition:
Returns the number of racks addressed
by this command.
For example, if one wished to know how
many racks total
there are in the system, the following
should be issued:
r * numracks.
+o 661747: roboinst uses incorrectly - botches dhcp
values beginning with t
+o 670878: A freed structure was referenced in the
routine nis_list_lookup if the request timed out before
completion.
+o 681987: Release notes in swmgr could not be viewed if
the distribution location was specified with a relative
pathname.
+o 698947: fix non-initialized variable which could cause
ioctl(PIOCENEVCTRS) to return Invalid argument
spuriously.
+o 699109: Changes in local name service files might not
be noticed for up to a second due to a one second
granularity on checks in nsd.
4.1.6 _B_u_g_s__f_i_x_e_d__i_n__I_R_I_X__6_._5_._4
+o 651983: Remove redundant subsystems from prerequisite
conflicts.
+o 660979: Inst couldn't read a http distribution from a
virtual HTTP server.
- 4 -
+o 665370: Add an eject button to the swmgr dialog that
prompts for a new CD.
+o 665711: Added smart_config_handling preference. If
enabled, do not install config(update) files if the new
dist version has the same size/checksum as the
previously installed version as reported by the inst
history. Enabling this option would eliminate the
post-install merging required of config(update) files
that have not changed between releases.
+o 669083: If the post install rqs processing was
cancelled from swmgr, the rqsall process was not killed
if swmgr was not started from a terminal.
+o 674848: Inst prerequisite conflicts will now provide
information, if available, regarding what CD contains
the missing subsystem.
4.1.7 _B_u_g_s__f_i_x_e_d__i_n__I_R_I_X__6_._5_._3
+o 582937: Inst incorrectly computes disk space
requirements for patches.
+o 599188: Noninteractive inst (inst -a, inst -A, inst
-F, roboinst) does not always update
/var/inst/.rqsfiles.
+o 599996: Pre-go disk space check should not stop
install.
+o 608438: Inst 'admin load (file)' ignores the set
directive.
+o 614132: Inst incorrectly reports out of space when
f_bfree < 0. This causes inst to fail on when NFS-
mounted filesystems from other vendors report
filesystems running at greater than 100% capacity.
+o 635325: Inst should prompt before re-reading the same
CD or distribution. Inst/swmgr will now check whether
the current CD or distribution is already loaded.
+o 641274: Diskless client installations of overlay
releases using client_inst(1M) fail unless all
distributions opened using a single "from" command.
This bug causes problems during diskless client
installations, because inst will not allow the user to
select certain overlay products that have been
installed in the share tree. This can result in
numerous installation conflicts, and can prevent
- 5 -
correct installation of the overlay release (such as
IRIX 6.5.2) in the client tree.
+o 642142: Installation of overlay releases results in
many conflicts unless the "install prereqs" and "keep
incompleteoverlays" commands are used. In this version
of inst and Software Manager, the "standard" keyword
has been changed to include "prereqs" and exclude
"incompleteoverlays". In addition this version of inst
recognizes two special commands "install maint" and
"install feature" to make it easier to switch between
streams. Software Manager has equivalent menu items on
the Install menu.
+o 645918: roboinst documentation issues.
+o 651016: European fonts need Euro Symbol.
+o 651528: roboinst setenv command has problems.
+o 652739: roboinst_config doesn't follow symlinks.
+o 659690: roboinst 1.1 does not mount custom filesystems
correctly.
4.1.8 _B_u_g_s__f_i_x_e_d__i_n__I_R_I_X__6_._5_._1__a_n_d__I_R_I_X__6_._5_._2
+o 527125: Inst would dump core if LANG env variable was
set to ja_JP.EUC.
+o 560351: Warn user when 'versions removehist' is used.
+o 562156: Swmgr didn't obey -A or -u all.
+o 568120: Inst conflict command sometimes produced
garbled output.
+o 579670 598339: Inst history not updated after
cancelled/failed rqs.
+o 579966: Inst/Swmgr could generate a conflict that was
not resolvable.
+o 586052: Inst/Swmgr would put user into interrupt menu
unnecessarily on patch removal when a directory was
missing.
+o 591919: Provide a more helpful message from postinst
after an autoconfig failure.
- 6 -
+o 595429: Showprods could destroy a ".tardist" file.
+o 599626: Inst core dumps using selection file
containing "bad" remote hostname.
+o 607421: Remote CD installs would fail if CD did not
contain ".IM" file.
+o 617424: Diskless installs of overlays did not work.
+o 619380: Major inst/swmgr performance problem when
installing overlays.
+o 622317: Using conflicts command in inst -c command
script would terminate script.
+o 633238: Swmgr would core dump during some overlay
installations.
+o 634528: Swmgr and Inst would not install some files if
product name != filename
4.1.9 _B_u_g_s__f_i_x_e_d__i_n__I_R_I_X__6_._2__t_h_r_o_u_g_h__I_R_I_X__6_._5
+o 241982: Swmgr autoselect preference was being ignored.
+o 443541: Interrupted connect system calls could not be
properly resumed, causing Netscape to fail over slow
links.
+o 447490: Swmgr would not start up if it didn't get the
colors it wanted.
+o 448628, 448586, 448583, 448447: Swmgr had problems
displaying multibyte text.
+o 449929: telnet didn't handle -e flag correctly for
null-character.
+o 450734: Starting up swmgr from a remote toolchest did
not display correctly when a root password was present.
+o 456982: Using the get info capability of swmgr on a
file could cause a core dump.
+o 459827: Inst history file checksums were not being
updated properly after rqs processing.
+o 485269: Inst list command doesn't sort by product name
correctly.
- 7 -
+o 486395, 369473: The logic to obtain the netmask
setting for the miniroot was improved.
+o 487549: 6.5.1m mailbox fix makes inside black (was
mailbox -S cannot see text on the O2)
+o 505714: Inst or swmgr now allows multiple products of
the same name and different versions to be loaded in
the same installation session.
+o 508209: Patches that change the base file type (ie.
dir to symlink) would not install properly.
+o 535947: Inst or swmgr product rules could get
corrupted under certain rare circumstances during
network installs.
+o 542322, 542301, 470457: Selection files without a from
line failed when using inst or swmgr. Selection files
consisting solely of remove commands failed. Selection
files with remove commands and other commands always
executed the remove commands even if the optional
version number did not match. Selection files did not
honor the open command.
+o 542709: Remote installs using swmgr or inst could
leave unnecessary shell processes running on the
server.
+o 544082: Swmgr would hang under certain rare conditions
after a right click on a product name.
+o 544319: Inst or swmgr would occasionally core dump
when installing over a failed NFS mount.
+o 560428: Inst or swmgr would sometimes calculate the
volume header device name incorrectly causing exitops
that use $vhdev to fail.

between (_n-1)*10ms and _n*10ms. Under IRIX 6.5 through
IRIX 6.5.4 this delay was changed to be _aaaa_tttt _llll_eeee_aaaa_ssss_tttt

warning message.
+o 566235: 6.3 O2 GL_FASTEST depth-cueing problem
+o 592548 : write-protected MOD -- device stayed write-
protected after protection was disabled
+o 597782: reintegrate code from 6.4 patch 2299 into 6.5.
Adds hwgraph vertices for big endian and little endian
devices on the pci bus.
+o 600578: While transferring data to adapters on the same
PCI bus as an AIC-1160 Fibre Channel adapter, it was
possible for the Fibre Channel adapter to mistake a
transaction as affecting it. This mistake would cause
two adapters to drive the bus at the same time,
producing PCI errors. The AIC-1160 are now addressed
in a different way, using I/O mapping instead of memory
mapping, in order to avoid this problem.
+o 614247: The dksc driver now returns requests with error
if they are too large for the extended read/write
commands. For a 512 byte sector disk, the maximum
transfer size is 33553920 bytes.

+o 632761: replace peer-to-peer dma capability for the O2
+o 635945, 583867: Three IPC semaphores parameters were
removed in IRIX 6.5, but the information in the book
"IRIX Admin: System Configuration and Operation" was
not revised until now. The parameters "semmns,"
"semume," and "summnu" have been deleted. "semume" and
"semmnu" are no longer valid because undo operations
are performed in a different way; there are no new
equivalents. "semmns" was a boot time table sizing
parameter, and these structures are now dynamically
allocated. The following IPC semaphores parameters
have changed default values: semmni (300), semmsl
(100), semopm (100).
+o 636641: The policy module create function (pm_create())
called the corresponding destroy functions if it failed
to create a policy module. None of the corresponding
destroy functions were set up to handle a partially
created policy module (i.e., they ended up referencing
null pointers). This fix remedies this situation.

+o 545707: Correct hang on STK 4781/4791 when no media

+o 558262: If an attempt (on exec(2)) to map in rld(1)
fails (perhaps because all file descriptors had been
used up before the exec) a coredump would be produced
in base irix6.5. Now an appropriate message is produced
and there is no coredump. The process returns a non-
zero status code (to wait(2) waitpid(2) or wait3(2),
for example) as the process status (because the
execution failed).
+o 561672: Add support for Sony GY-2120 which is the
replacement for the Sony Gy-10. Sony no longer markets
the GY-10.
+o 567126: Fix hang in Octane gfx code during NMI
+o 571933: sproc/tmpname fails
+o 572255: Fix several bugs causing long delays when
booting large Origin 2000s.
+o 573430: C++-incompatibility in curses.h
+o 578019: In a multibyte locale (MB_CUR_MAX != 1),
regexec(3G) would fill the pmatch array with the
position of parenthesized subexpressions as character
indices instead of byte indices. Now, it appropriately
returns the positions in bytes instead of characters.
+o 582054: Allow more data to be sent thru the msgsnd()

+o 593333: The second port of a MSCSI card in a
GIGAchannel expansion would not negotiate wide data
transfer.
+o 594585: When cpu(s) were disabled on large Origin
2000s, the system would appear to hang while booting

+o 290849: XLV displays the nodename assoicated with a
volume.
+o 294565: XLV device nodes were created even if the
volume was incomplete, possibly leading to the mistaken
conclusion that the volume was usable.
+o 311156, 333694: Added a -_s option to xlv_assemble(1m)
so a list of logical volumes to assemble can be
specified on the command line. It is no longer
necessary to assemble all logical volumes at once.
This option assists failover procedures for the
FailSafe Product.
+o 312367: Added a -_h command line option to xlv_make(1m)
so a nodename can be specified. This option implies
the -_A option to not automatically invoke
xlv_assemble(1m).
+o 323922: Xlv_shutdown(1m) complains and fails with a
exit code of 1 when an invalid volume name is specified
with the -_n option.
+o 331525: Added three new commands to xlv_mgr(1m). The
_c_h_a_n_g_e _n_a_m_e command renames a xlv object. The _c_h_a_n_g_e
_t_y_p_e command changes the type of an object. The _c_h_a_n_g_e
_v_e__s_t_a_r_t command changes start address of a standalone
volume element.
+o 341023: Xlv_assemble(1m) won't gratuitously initiate a
plex revive for a triple-plexed volume element when the
volume element was cleanly shutdown.
+o 355237, 357554: The system can sometimes panic when a
subvolume goes offline.
+o 363121: Fixes a kernel panic if plexing software is not
installed and an I/O error occurs on a RAID device.
+o 370878: Fail over to an alternate controller on a dual
controller SGI RAID device only works on lun 0. Luns
other than 0 were not properly switched over to the
alternate path.
+o 375080: XLV can deadlock the system under high load
when it grabs locks which prevent I/O while running
configuration commands (i.e, xlv_assemble). The
xlv_assemble process may need then to acquire memory,
causing the system to need to do I/O, resulting in
- 78 -
deadlock.
+o 382630: In two different windows, simultaneously using
xlv_shutdown(1m) and xlv_mgr(1m) to remove a volume can
cause the a system panic.
+o 392195: Losing a disk drive that is part of a root
volume can sometimes cause the system to hang.
+o 405757: Fixed a problem in xlv_shutdown(1m) which
caused it to fail with out of memory errors on large
systems.
+o 422453: Changed xlv_assemble to exit with a non-zero
exit status if selective assemble can't assemble all of
the volumes specified on the command line.
+o 422766: Xlv_make(1m) failed to create a standalone
plex or volume element when the inter-mixing disk
partitions of types "xlv" and "xfs".
+o 422798: A plexed root drive could be corrupted if one
plex was detached/attached, and the system was then
cleanly shutdown and rebooted.
+o 426966: Xlv_mgr(1m) core dumps detaching a NULL volume
element from a standalone plex.
+o 438539: The XLV label daemon is pinned in memory and
allocates and frees a large structure (2MB). Since it
is pinned, the heap never shrinks, causing xlv_labd(1m)
to be a memory hog.
+o 471909: During system startup, if /tmp is a volume and
there are plexed volumes being revived, the mount of
the /tmp volume fails. /tmp cannot mount until all the
plexed volumes are revived.
+o 474748: During a XLV plex revive, a read error on the
source volume element causes the system to panic with a
kernel fault.
+o 528089: XLV doesn't process multiple plex errors
correctly when receiving many disk errors, and can
cause a kernel panic.
+o 532078: A root volume which is either concatenated or
striped isn't properly rejected at boot time.
+o 533693: xlv_mgr(1m) doesn't handle volumes with
duplicate names but different hostnames.
- 79 -
+o 534748: The death of the xlv_labd(1m) process can
cause the kernel to hang. We work around this by
restarting the deamon as necessary.
+o 548381: Incomplete volume elements can cause a kernel
panic. Occurs on mirrored plexes where different
portions of the address range are valid on the
different plex halves.
+o 569117: XLV utilities xlv_mgr(1m) and xlv_make(1m)

The inventory files stored in /var/xfsdump are not
included in the dump, even if that directory is

Including the inventory in the dump may lead to loss or
corruption of data, should an older version be restored
overwriting the current version. To backup the xfsdump
inventory, the contents of /var/xfsdump should be
copied to another location which may then be safely
dumped. Upon restoration, those files may be copied

in ESP1.0 has been modified to an eventprofile
structure. Multiple profiles can now be set up and
loaded either through the user interface or the command
line configuration. Profiles can be merged, clean
installed and removed thereby providing the flexibility
to monitor a set of events.
+o 775757: ESP User Interface usability issues. This bug
has been fixed with this patch. The UI has been
completely re-organized. Navigational features have
been added by cross referencing the reports to setup
pages. Most of the UI components have been reduced to a
single page operation.
+o 775758: ESP needs to provide ability to generate group
level reports when SGM is used. This bug has been
closed with the ability to generate a comprehensive
report in the UI and command line. An option to
generate a single system report and single system
report has been provided.
+o 776105: ESP must provide an electronic log book for
logging various activities performed on the system. The
capability of a logbook has been provided through the
graphical user interface. Entries up to 4K can be made
using the logbook capability. A set of reports are
available to view the logbook entries between any given
dates. The logbook entries are also cross referenced by
the event reports on a date basis. This allows to check
- 100 -
if any log entries are made against events.
+o 776106: ESP should provide printable reports. This
capability has been added in this patch release. A
printable view icon is provided against all the
reports. Clicking the icon will generate a plain text
output to the browser. The browser print capability can
be used to print to paper. All reports are formatted to
fit in 80 columns
+o 776213: Remote systems are not added to actions in
System Group Manager mode. When event attributes like
throttle,registration flag ... are updated for a non-
local host ( SGM client ) , registration attributes
updates were not propagated to the SGM server. This was
also reported as Bug #786715.
+o 778880: startup script flaw esp. A esp startup script
flaw was causing espevents to be started even if the
database daemon(espdbd) was not responding. This may
have cause some database corruption.
+o 780232: esp system needs chkconfig flag. The chkconfig
flag has been introduced with the patch release for
ESP. By default, the flag is set to ON. It is
recommended that this should always be kept on for
pro-active monitoring of the system using ESP.
+o 780246: eventmond have to disable "CORE" file creation.
Unless eventmond is started in debug mode, eventmond
will not create a core dump when a SEGV happens. This
is done to be in accordance with most security practice
since eventmond current directory is "/".
+o 782750: ESP must provide capability to log all
collected data to the ESP database at SGI. This
capability has been provided in this patch release. An
application (espcall) has been introduced that gets
automatically triggered against events if ESP has been
configured to send data back to SGI. The application
supports both text and compressed,encrypted, encoded
formats. The format is also selectable both in the UI
and command line applications. Information transmitted
back to SGI depends on the type of even t. Information
includes customer contact information, event
information, hardware and software installed, crash
analysis and syslog information. The analysis report
and syslog messages are sent only if the system
panic'd. Information is mailed out to esp@sgi.com.
Optional mail addresses can be entered to receive
copies of what is mail to esp@sgi.com 077.

+o 784187: eventmond uid feature broken in dsm. eventmond
was setting a umask of 660 on all the threads. Action
scripts were executing under this umask and fail most
of the times. Solution was to make the umask 077.
+o 789412: ESP does not have a command line option for all
configuration. This capability hasbeen provided in the
patch release. Two sets of commands have been
introduced via espconfig(1m)and espreport(1m). The
command line utilities provide a wide range of options
to configure ESP on the command line. espreport(1m)
generates all reports that are generated in the user
interface.
