( QX:QXCR1000554831 SR:8606420197 CR:JAGaf80027 )
The default stack size supported on HP-UX may not be
sufficient for some multithreaded applications ported to
HP-UX from other operating systems.
( QX:QXCR1000547922 SR:8606401524 CR:JAGaf61461 )
HP-UX supports upto 256 keys for thread specific data. This
might be a limitation for some multithreaded applications
ported to HP-UX from other operating systems.
PHCO_33282:
( QX:QXCR1000567705 SR:8606454318 CR:JAGag10972 )
A thread attempting to cancel itself asynchronously through
pthread_cancel() does not get cancelled until the next
cancellation point is reached.
PHCO_30544:
( QX:QXCR1000525411 SR:8606316171 CR:JAGae78888 )
The performance of pthread_getspecific() needs to be
improved.
PHCO_29960:
( QX:QXCR1000528812 SR:8606334892 CR:JAGae95970 )
Under certain circumstances, a multi-threaded application
that has a thread suspending itself while depending upon a
different thread to resume it, could experience a hang.

are: PHKL_26316, PHKL_26240, and PHCO_25751.
If any member of this set of product updates is not
installed, this product update will have no impact on your
system.
PHCO_25226:
( SR:8606186378 CR:JAGad55582 )
Heavy mutex contention seen when large number of
threads try to acquire a single mutex lock, leading
to performance degradation and sudden jump in CPU
utilization.
PHCO_24584:
( SR:8606200799 CR:JAGad69975 )
This patch is a member of a set of patches needed to enable
the HP-UX Processor Sets product (PROCSETS). When PROCSETS
product is installed, it will install the full set of
required patches for that product, including this patch.

change will have no impact on your system.
PHCO_23846:
( SR:8606184540 CR:JAGad53747 )
This enhancement is to support initialized tls support for
Fortran OpenMP. Changes are made in pthread library.
Defect Description:
PHCO_38307:
( QX:QXCR1000794163 )
pthread library misses the cancellation request in
pthread_cond_wait(). The problem happens under a race
condition where the cancellation request arrives after
pthread_cond_wait() function has done a cancellation check
and before it sleeps on the condition variable. The thread
misses the cancellation signal and goes to sleep causing the
application to hang.
Resolution:
The race window is now closed by putting an additional check
for a pending cancellation just before the thread goes to
sleep.
PHCO_36229:
( QX:QXCR1000554831 SR:8606420197 CR:JAGaf80027 )
The default stack size provided by the HP-UX pthread
library is fixed and insufficient for some multithreaded
applications. This can be a blocker for applications
being ported to HP-UX.
Resolution:
A new environment variable PTHREAD_DEFAULT_STACK_SIZE has
been provided, which can be used to set the default stack
size to the desired value.
( QX:QXCR1000547922 SR:8606401524 CR:JAGaf61461 )
The HP-UX pthread library supports 256 keys for thread
specific data. This may not be sufficient for some
multithreaded applications. This can be a blocker for
applications being ported to HP-UX.
Resolution:
A new environment variable PTHREAD_USER_KEYS_MAX has been
provided, which can be used to set the maximum number of
keys needed.
PHCO_33282:
( QX:QXCR1000567705 SR:8606454318 CR:JAGag10972 )
When a thread tries to cancel itself asynchronously, the
cancellation request fails to happen immediately. It does
not happen until the next cancellation point is reached.
This is because of an incorrect check made inside the
library for the cancellation state.
Resolution:
The check made inside the library was modified appropriately
so as to serve the cancellation request immediately.
PHCO_30544:
( QX:QXCR1000525411 SR:8606316171 CR:JAGae78888 )
The performance of Thread Specific Data interfaces like
pthread_getspecific(), is not upto the mark because the
error checking is not done in an efficient manner.
Resolution:
Code changes are done to improve the performance of Thread
Speicific data interfaces like pthread_getspecific(), by
doing the error checking in an efficient manner.
PHCO_29960:
( QX:QXCR1000528812 SR:8606334892 CR:JAGae95970 )
Pthread library keeps track of thread suspensions using
internal suspend count, Suspend count is incremented when
a thread gets suspended and decremented when thread is
resumed. The problem occurs when a thread suspends itself
inside a loop while waiting for a different thread to
resume it. The thread suspending itself may never get
resumed since the suspend count maintained inside the
library will not match the actual suspension state of
the thread.
Resolution:
The internal counter that maintains thread's suspend
count has been fixed to avoid this situation.
PHCO_29109:
( QX:QXCR1000518490 SR:8606287920 CR:JAGae51853 )
During normal operation, the Java Virtual Machine may
suspend a thread. When a thread gets suspended, it
could be holding internal pthread resources. This can
cause a deadlock.
Resolution:
Solution is to ensure target does not get suspended while
holding internal pthread resources
( QX:QXCR1000523181 SR:8606307157 CR:JAGae70190 )
The cancellation operation (pthread_cancel) can race with
cancel enable/disable (pthread_setcancelstate).
Resolution:
While cancelling a thread, detect that the thread has now
disabled cancellation.
( QX:QXCR1000523298 SR:8606307489 CR:JAGae70522 )
The pthread library does not export two functions that are
useful to the Java virtual machine.
Resolution:
libpthread will now export the two symbols
PHCO_27632:
( QX:QXCR1000513917 SR:8606259440 CR:JAGae23758 )
There is a race condition in thread cancellation path in
pthread library. This may cause an application to fail to
cancel a thread.
Resolution:
The race condition in the thread cancellation path is
removed by appropriate protection of the internal
cancellation structure.
( QX:QXCR1000515238 SR:8606269542 CR:JAGae33777 )
This enhancement provides a way to restart mutex
operation when a process owning a mutex terminates
abnormally.
Resolution:
This enhancement provides a new mutex type
PTHREAD_MUTEX_NO_OWNER_NP, which can be unlocked by a
thread other than the owner.
( QX:QXCR1000515239 SR:8606269545 CR:JAGae33780 )
There is a race in mutex destroy and mutex unlock
operation, which may occassionally result in
pthread_mutex_destroy() returning EBUSY on first
try.
Resolution:
The race condition in mutex unlock and mutex destroy
operation is eliminated by better handling of waiter
count updation.
PHCO_26466:
( SR:8606226668 CR:JAGad95731 )
The problem with pthread_mutex_destroy() is attributed
to the fact that, pthread_mutex_unlock() does not keep
track of the number of waiters accurately. The mutex
cannot be destroyed when there are waiters,
and hence EBUSY is returned by pthread_mutex_destroy().
Resolution:
The change introduced in this patch update will
accurately keep track of all the waiters.
( QX:QXCR1000511258 SR:8606231620 CR:JAGae00858 )
This product update enables enable
"Release mode" functionality for PTHREAD_PROCESS_SHARED
mutexes. "Release mode" for PTHREAD_PROCESS_SHARED
mutexes is a feature that can be used to increase the
performance of the mutex in some cases where
there is high contention for the mutex.
Previously all shared mutexes use a "handoff"
mechanism to operate on mutexes whereby a mutex
lock is never really released, but rather handed
over to the highest priority waiter, if any.
This was done to adhere to standards whereby a
low priority thread shall not acquire the mutex
when there is a higher priority POSIX realtime
thread waiting for the same mutex. This made
the protocol less efficient in some cases since
another running thread could acquire and release
the mutex interim, hence making progress. This
enhancement still uses the original "handoff"
mechanism as the default case, but allows the
selection of "Release mode" to turn off the
"handoff" mechanism if it is desired.
Resolution:
This product update employs the kernel
support delivered in PHKL_26467, PHKL_26468 and PHKL_26469
for enabling release mode for PTHREAD_PROCESS_SHARED
mutexes. The changes can be enabled either by using
the API (pthread_mutex_disable_handoff_np() or
pthread_mutexattr_disable_handoff_np()) or by
setting the environment variable
PTHREAD_DISABLE_HANDOFF=ON. Applications will not
adhere to real-time semantics if this functionality
is enabled, however it can avail the performance
benefits provided by this product update.
PHCO_25751:
( SR:8606226436 CR:JAGad95505 )
The gang scheduler is currently supported only in Default
pset,so the request to enable gang scheduling for a process
in non-default pset would fail. The pthread library does not
recognize this scenario, and it fails the startup of new
application.
Resolution:
The pthread_startup() function needs to bypass the gang
scheduling requests for processes in non-default psets.
( SR:8606232147 CR:JAGae01383 )
In the PTHREAD_PROCESS_SHARED mutex case, the unlock
operation always makes a system call to synchronize with
threads in other processes which may be waiting for the
mutex. This makes the code path significantly longer.
Resolution:
Change pthread_mutex_unlock(), in the case of a shared
mutex, to call a new light weight system call rather than
the existing system call. If that new system call is not
available, then use the regular system call instead.
(PHKL_26316, also required for this enhancement,
adapts the existing system call which handles waiters of
shared mutexes to coordinate with the light weight unlock
system call. PHKL_26240, also required for this
enhancement, provides the new light weight system call
for shared mutex unlock.)
PHCO_25226:
( SR:8606186378 CR:JAGad55582 )
When large number of threads contend for a single
mutex, there is lot of contention for the internal
locks used in the library. This results in
unnecessary yielding and sleeping by the waiters
preventing the lock owner to complete the job.
Resolution:
Modified existing implementation to reduce contention
and dependency on the internal lock.
PHCO_24584:
( SR:8606200799 CR:JAGad69975 )
This patch contains minor enhancements in pthreads library
to support the HP-UX Processor Sets product.
Resolution:
Enhancements added to support new pthread_pset_bind_np()
interface in pthreads library when Processor Sets product
is enabled.
PHCO_23846:
( SR:8606184540 CR:JAGad53747 )
This is an enhancement for Initialized Thread local storage
support for Fortran OpenMP.
Resolution:
Libpthread allocates memory for TLS and it is initialized
to zero. With new enhancement the allocated TLS memory will
be initialized with the initialization image for each load
module the pointer to which is passed by libc/linker.
Enhancement:
No (superseded patches contained enhancements)
PHCO_36229:
JAGaf80027 : A new environment variable,
PTHREAD_DEFAULT_STACK_SIZE is provided to set the
default stack size to a desired value.
JAGaf61461 : A new environment variable,
PTHREAD_USER_KEYS_MAX is provided to allow
applications to set the maximum number of keys
needed.
PHCO_30544:
This change provides better performance for
thread specific data interfaces like
pthread_getspecific().
PHCO_27632:
The new mutex type PTHREAD_MUTEX_NO_OWNER_NP.
Additional enhancements were delivered in a patch
this one has superseded. Please review the Defect
Description text for more information.

Hardware Dependencies: None
Other Dependencies:
PHCO_27632:
To enable the new mutex type which can be unlocked
by a thread other than the owner, the following
must be installed.
PHCO_27632
PHCO_27633.
These product updates can be installed in any order.
If any of these product updates are not insatlled,
this product update will have no impact on your
system.
PHCO_26466: To enable the process shared mutex performance,
the following must be installed: PHKL_26467, PHKL_26468,
PHKL_26469 and PHCO_26466. These product updates may be
installed in any order. If any of these product updates are
not installed, this product update will have no impact on
your system.
PHCO_25751: To enable the pthread shared
mutex performance enhancement, the following must be
installed: PHKL_26240, PHKL_26316, and PHCO_25751
PHCO_25226: Perf changes enabled by
pthread_mutex_disable_handoff_np() or
pthread_mutexattr_disable_handoff_np() or by setting the
environment variable PTHREAD_DISABLE_HANDOFF=ON. By default
these perf changes are disabled. The first API pthread_
mutex_disable_handoff_np() is for process wide disabling of
handoff mode in all mutexes. So is the env. variable. The
pthread_mutexattr_disable_handoff_np() takes as argument
pointer to pthread_mutexattr_t and can be used to disable
handoff mode for a particular mutex. The pthread_mutex_
disable_handoff_np() has no arguments and has to be called
by the main thread before any new threads are created.
"Handoff mode" is used to strictly adhere to certain
characteristics of POSIX real-time threads. If your
application does not use any real-time threads trying to
take mutex locks, you can call this new API to get the
performance benefits. To enable the TLS feature, the
following patches should also be installed: PHCO_23427 libc
cumulative patch PHSS_23441 linker cumulative patch
PHSS_23794 linker startup patch PHSS_23953 Fortran90 B.11.01
