What is Support Level Supplement (SLS) ptf9150b, the UnixWare 7 Definitive 2018 Supplement?


Problems Fixed
--------------

  The following fixes were first provided with ptf9150a and are also
  contained in ptf9150b:

  1.  Fix an RD1000 panic.

      Systems using the AHCI device driver and an attached but empty
      Dell PowerVault RD1000 Removable Disk Storage device would panic
      on start up.

      To fix these panics requires both this escalation patch for the sd01
      device driver and to use version 2.0a (or later) of the AHCI device
      driver.  You can separately download that device driver or install it
      via patchck.

      The sd01 portion of the fix is to change a recursive loop to an
      iterative loop.

      The ahci portion of the fix is to resolve an event registration issue.

      OSR6-113

  2.  Fix a mkdev hd command failure when configuring a Dell PowerVault
      RD1000 Removable Disk Storage hard disk.  This error was encountered:

           ERROR: One or more of the DDB files are not
           present/corrupt/inaccessible. 

           UX:ls:ERROR: Cannot access /dev/hba/hba*: no such
           file or directory.

      An incorrect data conversion was fixed.

      OSR6-124

  ptf9150b also provides the following fixes:

  3.  Revise various header files to maintain the same behavior for
      UDK compiled binaries while supporting definitions required by
      the new UnixWare 7 Definitive 2018 compiler.

      UW7-140

  4.  Avoid undefined WCHAR_MIN and WINT_MIN variables by setting defaults
      if these variables are not defined elsewhere.

      UW7-138

  5.  Add setenv and unsetenv declarations to stdlib.h.  While
      undeclared functions default to int, modern compilers complain about
      the missing declarations.

Software Notes and Recommendations
----------------------------------

  1.  ptf9150 should only be installed on:

      UnixWare 7 Definitive 2018 (D2M1)

  2.  If your system has an AHCI controller, you should also install
      the revised AHCI device driver (version 2.0a or later).

  3.  ptf9150b can be installed on UnixWare 7 Definitive 2018 with
      ptf9150 (version a) already installed.  However, removal of
      ptf9150 (version b) will remove both versions and restore the
      original UnixWare 7 Definitive 2018 binaries.

  4.  If you participated in the UnixWare 7/OpenServer 6 Definitive 2018
      Development System Update Alpha program, p600000 must be removed
      before applying this patch.
