Patch Name: PHKL_39695 Patch Description: 11.31 I/O Port Space and PCIe Graphics gvid driver Creation Date: 09/06/05 Post Date: 09/07/27 Hardware Platforms - OS Releases: 11.31 Products: N/A Filesets: OS-Core.CORE2-KRN,fr=B.11.31,fa=HP-UX_B.11.31_IA,v=HP OS-Core.CORE2-KRN,fr=B.11.31,fa=HP-UX_B.11.31_PA,v=HP Automatic Reboot?: Yes Status: General Release Critical: No (superseded patches were critical) PHKL_36450: PANIC The system can Machine Check Abort when the X server is started on graphics devices not located on rope zero on Itanium servers with future system firmware. Category Tags: hardware_enablement general_release critical panic Path Name: /hp-ux_patches/11.X/PHKL_39695 Symptoms: PHKL_39695: ( QX:QXCR1000904821 ) The X-server application will fail with a FIFO error on future HP platforms. X-server will require the following set of patches to correctly read the graphics device registers: PHKL_39480, PHKL_39695, and PHKL_39694. PHKL_38764: ( QX:QXCR1000837088 ) This product update is a member of a set needed to enable graphics support for the RN50 built-in graphics device on HP-UX for certain future HP platforms. The complete list of patches include: PHKL_38787 - Enable PCIe based graphics devices PHKL_38764 - Enable graphics on PCIe based systems PHKL_38656 - Provide graphics services to be used by gvid driver PHKL_38657 - Enable 64-bit base address registers for graphics devices PHKL_36450: ( QX:QXCR1000580207 SR:8606478980 CR:JAGag33215 ) This product update enables gvid graphics driver support for future system firmware updates using MVX I/O port space for the rx3600, rx6600, rx2660, and BL860c Itanium server systems. Under certain system configurations where the X-server is run on a non built-in graphics device on a system with MVX- enabled firmware, a Machine Check Abort (MCA) panic could result. Defect Description: PHKL_39695: ( QX:QXCR1000904821 ) Future HP platforms require changes in VGA memory mapping code for successful initialization of the embedded graphics device. Resolution: Changes to provide an interface to the graphics driver to call kernel subsystems will help correctly map memory and successfully initialize the embedded graphics device for future HP platforms. PHKL_38764: ( QX:QXCR1000837088 ) This update contains changes to the gvid driver that are required to support on-board and add-in graphics devices on certain new platforms. Resolution: Added changes to HP-UX to support on-board and add-in graphics devices on certain future HP platforms. PHKL_36450: ( QX:QXCR1000580207 SR:8606478980 CR:JAGag33215 ) The MVX enabled system firmware will change how PCI I/O port space is accessed by the gvid graphics driver. The mechanism used by the gvid driver to access PCI I/O space must be enhanced in order to support future system firmware releases on Itanium servers. Resolution: The gvid graphics driver has been modified to be compatible with the MVX enabled future system firmware releases. Enhancement: No SR: 8606478980 QXCR1000580207 QXCR1000837088 QXCR1000904821 Patch Files: OS-Core.CORE2-KRN,fr=B.11.31,fa=HP-UX_B.11.31_IA,v=HP: /usr/conf/mod/gvid_core OS-Core.CORE2-KRN,fr=B.11.31,fa=HP-UX_B.11.31_PA,v=HP: /usr/conf/mod/gvid_core what(1) Output: OS-Core.CORE2-KRN,fr=B.11.31,fa=HP-UX_B.11.31_IA,v=HP: /usr/conf/mod/gvid_core: gvid_buf.c $Date: 2002/02/19 07:30:00 $Revision: AAS gvid_machdep.c $Date: 2008/09/09 09:13:07 $Revision: r11.31/2 PATCH_11.31 (B11.31.0903LR) gvid_machdep_access.c $Date: 2009/04/01 15:47:53 $Re vision: r11.31/2 PATCH_11.31 (B11.31.0909LR) $Revision: gvid_core: B11.31.0909LR OS-Core.CORE2-KRN,fr=B.11.31,fa=HP-UX_B.11.31_PA,v=HP: /usr/conf/mod/gvid_core: $Revision: gvid_core: B11.31.0909LR gvid_buf.c $Date: 2002/02/19 07:30:00 $Revision: AAS gvid_machdep.c $Date: 2008/09/09 09:13:07 $Revision: r11.31/2 PATCH_11.31 (B11.31.0903LR) gvid_machdep_access.c $Date: 2009/04/01 15:47:53 $Re vision: r11.31/2 PATCH_11.31 (B11.31.0909LR) cksum(1) Output: OS-Core.CORE2-KRN,fr=B.11.31,fa=HP-UX_B.11.31_IA,v=HP: 335347119 519920 /usr/conf/mod/gvid_core OS-Core.CORE2-KRN,fr=B.11.31,fa=HP-UX_B.11.31_PA,v=HP: 1853570568 539448 /usr/conf/mod/gvid_core Patch Conflicts: None Patch Dependencies: None Hardware Dependencies: None Other Dependencies: None Supersedes: PHKL_38764 PHKL_36450 Equivalent Patches: None Patch Package Size: 310 KBytes 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 PHKL_39695 5. Run swinstall to install the patch: swinstall -x autoreboot=true -x patch_match_target=true \ -s /tmp/PHKL_39695.depot By default swinstall will archive the original software in /var/adm/sw/save/PHKL_39695. If you do not wish to retain a copy of the original software, include the patch_save_files option in the swinstall command above: -x patch_save_files=false WARNING: If patch_save_files is false when a patch is installed, the patch cannot be deinstalled. Please be careful when using this feature.
