Patch Name: PHKL_28966 Patch Description: s700_800 11.00 VxFS3.3 Data Page Fault in vx_multi_bufinval Creation Date: 03/04/15 Post Date: 03/04/28 Hardware Platforms - OS Releases: s700: 11.00 s800: 11.00 Products: JFS 3.3; Filesets: JFS.JFS-BASE2-KRN,fr=3.3,fa=HP-UX_B.11.00_32,v=HP JFS.JFS-BASE2-KRN,fr=3.3,fa=HP-UX_B.11.00_64,v=HP Automatic Reboot?: Yes Status: General Release Critical: Yes PHKL_28966: PANIC Category Tags: defect_repair general_release critical panic Path Name: /hp-ux_patches/s700_800/11.X/PHKL_28966 Symptoms: PHKL_28966: ( SR:8606295053 CR:JAGae58750 ) Data page fault occurs when accessing a buffer. While the stack trace may vary, the following stack trace has been observed so far: panic+0x14 report_trap_or_int_and_panic+0x84 trap+0xd9c nokgdb+0x8 vx_multi_bufinval+0x90 vx_emtran_process+0xe0 vx_dunemap+0x100 vx_demap+0x14 vx_trancommit2+0x6c vx_trancommit+0x420 vx_rmdir1+0x5cc vx_rmdir+0x168 vns_remove+0x10c vn_remove+0xa4 rmdir+0x28 syscall+0x6f8 $syscallrtn+0x0 Defect Description: PHKL_28966: ( SR:8606295053 CR:JAGae58750 ) Certain fields in the buffer are modified after the buffer has been released. This produces a race condition as the buffer may be re-used for other operations after it is released, and then the buffer fields are incorrectly modified. Resolution: The buffer fields are modified prior to the buffer being released.
