Path Name: /hp-ux_patches/s700_800/11.X/PHKL_28489

Symptoms: 
	PHKL_28489:
	( SR:8606281908 CR:JAGae45851 )
	A 64bit application calling fork() may experience an
	interruptible hang.

	PHKL_23995:
	( SR:8606173564 CR:JAGad42822 )
	The system may return a Bad Address (EFAULT) on a legal
	write()

Defect Description: 
	PHKL_28489:
	( SR:8606281908 CR:JAGae45851 )
	If the first access to a copy on write page after a fork()
	is an LDCD (load and clear double) instruction, when
	resolving the protection (access) fault, the access type
	is incorrectly determined to be a READ instead of a WRITE,
	thus resulting in a recursive protection fault and
	interruptible process hang.

	Resolution:
	Updated the access type checking routines to correctly
	return WRITE for LDCD instructions.

	PHKL_23995:
	( SR:8606173564 CR:JAGad42822 )
	The system checks the access rights for the page twice
	before copying a page in memory. The second check is
	done if the page was not already in memory and was
	brought in by a fault. This second check can fail
	under a race condition.

	Resolution:
	The solution is not to check the access rights again if
	the fault is resolved - resolving the fault ensures that
	the page is in memory with proper access rights.

Enhancement: 
	No
