Patch Name:  PHKL_3076

Patch Description: s700 9.0[357] Fix for select() panic

This patch fixes a problem that would panic the system when select(2) was
called with no open file descriptors. Instead of returning with an invalid
pointer assignment, the routine now returns EBADF and avoids panicing the
system.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
After getting the patch onto your machine, unshar the patch (sh PHKL_3076).

To install this patch do the following:
1) Run /etc/update (Note: you must be logged in as root to update
   a system).
2) Once in the update "Main Menu" move the highlighted line to "Change
   Source or Destination ->" and press "Return" or "Select Item".
3) Make sure the highlighted item in the "Change Source or Destination"
   window is "From Tape Device to Local System ...", then press "Return" or
   "Select Item".
4) You should now be in the "From Tape Device to Local System" window.
   Change the "Source:  /dev/rmt/0m" to "Source: /tmp/PHKL_3076.updt"
   (this assumes that you are in the /tmp directory where PHKL_3076.updt
   has been placed).  Note: You must enter the complete path name.
5) Press "Done".
6) From here on follow the standard directions for update.

The customized script that update runs will move the original software
to /system/PHKL_3076/orig.  HP recommends keeping this software there in
order to recover from any potential problems.  It is also recommended that
you move the PHKL_3076.text file to /system/PHKL_3076 to be retained for
future reference.

If you wish to put this patch on a magnetic tape and update from the tape
drive, dd a copy of the patch to the tape drive.  As an example the
following will create a copy of the patch that update can read:
dd if=PHKL_3076.updt of=/dev/rmt/0m bs=2048
