4 nPartition (Hard Partition) Systems What’s in This Chapter? This chapter describes changes to HP’s new high-performance HP-UX server environments.
nPartition (Hard Partition) Systems Introduction Introduction HP’s new nPartition (hard partition) servers provide highly configurable, high-performance HP-UX system environments.
nPartition (Hard Partition) Systems Superdome Systems at HP-UX 11i v1 Superdome Systems at HP-UX 11i v1 new at 11i original Superdome models differ with regard to the characteristics shown in Table 4-1.
nPartition (Hard Partition) Systems Machine Identifier Machine Identifier updated for June 2001 The uname -i command on your nPartition systems may not return a unique value for each system. To guarantee compatibility on current and future platforms, use the new interfaces to getconf (1) and confstr (3C) to retrieve unique machine identifiers.
nPartition (Hard Partition) Systems Hard Partition Hardware Path Format Hard Partition Hardware Path Format new at 11i original The HP-UX command ioscan reports the hardware paths for components within the release partition in which the command is issued. (Note that the ioscan command reports information only for the currently active hardware components in the local partition. It does not report details for hardware not assigned to the local partition.
nPartition (Hard Partition) Systems New and Modified Hard Partition Commands New and Modified Hard Partition Commands Several system administration commands are provided with HP-UX 11i for creating and maintaining partitions on all nPartition systems. Additionally, the existing commands shutdown, reboot, and setboot have been modified to support nPartition platforms.
nPartition (Hard Partition) Systems New and Modified Hard Partition Commands Command Description parremove (1M) Removes an existing partition. parunlock (1M) Unlocks the Stable Complex Configuration Data or Partition Configuration Data. fruled (1) Turns locator LEDs on/off for cells, cabinets and I/O chassis. frupower (1M) Enables or disables power to a cell or I/O chassis, or displays the power status of cells or I/O chassis.
nPartition (Hard Partition) Systems New and Modified Hard Partition Commands Additionally, systems with hard partitions support a boot action for each path. However, boot actions for paths other than the primary path cannot be set using setboot. (In this case, the default boot action for boot paths on nPartitions is “skip this device and try next path,” [a path flag value of 2.
nPartition (Hard Partition) Systems Partition Manager (parmgr) Partition Manager (parmgr) Partition Manager v2.0 (version B.11.11.02.00.03.x) provides system administrators with a convenient graphical user interface for configuration and management of nPartitions on HP server systems. In addition, Partition Manager enhances the reliability and performance of HP partitioning products by providing automatic detection of several types of configuration problems.
nPartition (Hard Partition) Systems nPartition Provider nPartition Provider new for December The nPartition Provider, version B.11.11.01.03.00.x, is the HP-UX WBEM Services 2004 provider for nPartition-related information on partitionable systems. This product is used by Partition Manager* and the partition commands† to configure and manage HP systems that support nPartitions. With this component, partitionable systems can be managed both locally and remotely.
nPartition (Hard Partition) Systems Service Processor (GSP or MP) Service Processor (GSP or MP) Each of HP’s nPartition servers include a service processor that provides server-wide status, maintenance, and console interfaces. NOTE The service processor in HP servers is sometimes called the Management Processor (MP) and sometimes the Guardian Service Processor (GSP).
nPartition (Hard Partition) Systems hd_fabric Driver hd_fabric Driver new at 11i original Although the HP-UX 11i v1 install kernel does not include a /stand/system entry for release the new 11i driver, hd_fabric, an entry is added to the system file as part of the installation process on nPartition systems. When the /usr/sbin/mk_kernel command builds a kernel, the hd_fabric driver is then built into the HP-UX kernel. This only affects nPartition systems.
nPartition (Hard Partition) Systems New Attention Indicator Behavior New Attention Indicator Behavior updated for September 2001 The fruled command and Partition Manager now blink the attention indicators (LEDs) on HP Superdome cells and I/O chassis rather than illuminating them in a steady-on state, as was the case with the original 11i v1 release. Likewise, on HP rp7410 and rp8400 servers, the fruled command and Partition Manager behaviors are to blink cell attention indicators.
nPartition (Hard Partition) Systems New Attention Indicator Behavior However, it wasn’t until the HP-UX 11i June 2001 release that SAM and Partition Manager started to blink PCI slot attention indicators during tasks involving PCI cards or card slots. As a result, sites that have HP Superdome servers running both the original HP-UX 11i v1 release and the HP-UX 11i June 2001 (or later) release can have attention indicators at different states (steady-on and blinking).

Four patches (PHKL_25712, PHCO_25831, PHKL_24854, and PHKL_25218) are required for the c8xx driver.
Workstation/Server Specific Information Service Processor (GSP or MP) Service Processor (GSP or MP) NOTE The service processor in HP servers is sometimes called the Management Processor (MP) and sometimes the Guardian Service Processor (GSP). Regardless of the name, the service processor in these servers provides approximately the same features and performs essentially the same role. Throughout this document the term “service processor” refers to both the MP and GSP service processors.
Workstation/Server Specific Information Service Processor (GSP or MP) GSP Logging Capabilities The introduction of GSP to the above platforms dramatically changes the way chassis operations and diagnostic evaluations are performed on a running system. The new subsystem requires HP-UX to provide more information than was provided on previous platforms. HP-UX will continue to output the same chassis-codes and forward-progress indicators that have been provided in previous releases.
Workstation/Server Specific Information N4000 and rp7400 Server Functionality N4000 and rp7400 Server Functionality This section describes 11i v1 functionality to enable HP N4000 and rp7400 mid-range servers.
Workstation/Server Specific Information N4000 and rp7400 Server Functionality Impact on Legacy Systems Legacy system users will see minimal impact in their applications or system administration tools due to the changes in the platform infrastructure. Although the configuration files on 64-bit systems (for example, /stand/system and master.
Workstation/Server Specific Information N4000 and rp7400 Server Functionality * sapic * sba PAT PSM This software module interacts with N-Class and rp7400 firmware to discover and keep track of the CEC components configured on the N4000 and rp7400. The PAT PSM also provides access to platform-specific hardware components at runtime. Although it may be included and linked into all 64-bit kernels, the PAT PSM is useful only to N4000 and rp7500 systems. As of HP-UX 11.
Workstation/Server Specific Information N4000 and rp7400 Server Functionality On N4000 and rp7400 systems, the firmware programs only the boot and console devices. The PCI CDIO programs the remaining devices, using information provided by firmware to the operating system (PAT PSM gets this for PCI). The N4000 and rp7400 disassociates interrupt routing/handling from the platform-specific bus adapter.
Workstation/Server Specific Information ttytype Support for the N4000 and rp7400 Console ttytype Support for the N4000 and rp7400 Console new at 11i original Although the ttytype command has been enhanced to support the N4000 and rp7400 release console, there are no user-visible changes in the behavior of the command. However, a new ioctl()call has been added to the command to query the Guardian Service Processor (GSP) console driver for the TERM identity.

8 Installation What’s in This Chapter? This chapter describes new and changed aspects of installation. (For further current information, see the HP-UX 11i Installation and Update Guide.
Installation Cold Install Changed Cold Install Changed new at 11i original release The HP-UX operating system is now delivered as part of an operating environment. (For more details, see “The HP-UX 11i Operating Environments” on page 60, as well as Chapter 6, “HP-UX 11i Version 1 Operating Environment Applications,” on page 109.) Although HP-UX 11i v1 can be cold-installed with or without an Operating Environment (OE), HP strongly recommends installing a complete OE.
Installation Update-UX Update-UX You can update an existing HP-UX 10.20 or 11.0 system to 11i v1 using the new update-ux command. Beginning at 11i v1, this command replaces swgettools to perform OS updates. With it, you can also add a new Operating Environment (OE), change an OE, or change the OS word-width from 32- to 64-bit on appropriate systems. For more information on the update-ux command, see the HP-UX 11i Installation and Update Guide.
Installation Software Distributor Software Distributor Software Distributor (SD) is the HP-UX administration tool set used to deliver and maintain HP-UX operating systems and layered software applications. Delivered as part of HP-UX, SD can help you: • Manage your OS, patches, and application software on HP-UX systems. • Organize, standardize, and distribute software to your customers. • Handle complex delivery challenges such as testing complete solutions for the commercial and technical desktop.
Installation Software Distributor POSIX Enhancements and Exceptions Software Distributor has been enhanced to meet the IEEE Std 1387.2-1995 standard (also referred to as POSIX 7.2) This affects the behavior of the command line interface and the number of options. (See /usr/lib/sw/sys.defaults for a complete list of supported options, their descriptions, and default values.) Exceptions to the POSIX 7.2 standard are as follows: • Filesets are not allowed to span media.
Installation Software Distributor Products Rather than Bundles Shown After Auto-Selection In 11.0, GUI software selection using “Match What Target Has” or “Automatically select patches for software installed on target” could be confusing because the products in the bundles were not automatically marked for selection in the GUI. The new 11i behavior provides a product-level view that shows which software has been matched.
Installation Software Distributor • The control_file attribute is no longer displayed at the product- or fileset-levels by default when using the -v option, unless the -l file-level is also specified on the command line. Also, a new level, control_file, has been created to show just control_file attributes. • Listing the product or fileset control_file attribute via -a control_files is unchanged. This provides performance improvement when listing products and filesets.
Installation Software Distributor With HP-UX 11i, SD-UX can recognize patches based on their “internal attributes.” This provides more control over patch management than in previous releases. patch_match_target The match_target option still functions, but no longer matches patches to targets. With 11i, setting the patch_match_target option to TRUE automatically selects the latest patches that correspond to software on the target. The default setting is patch_match_target=false.
Installation Software Distributor swinstall -x autoreboot=true -x patch_match_target=true \ -x patch_filter=”*.*,c=critical|hardware_enablement” \ -s depot_name To preview the patches that are selected for a particular swinstall session, the -p (preview) option can be used. The -p option will cause SD-UX to analyze the installation, then exit (that is, the actual installation will not be performed). Look in the /var/adm/sw/swinstall.log file to determine which patches were selected.
Installation set_parms Enhanced set_parms Enhanced new at 11i original release The set_parms program is a GUI/TUI interface that normally runs only the first time any HP-UX system is booted after installation if hostname/networking information has not been set up in advance. For HP-UX 11i, set_parms has been enhanced to allow you to select which networking interface to set up. In prior releases, set_parms would pick the lowest numbered LAN interface to configure in the absence of any other information.

10 Process, Threads, Memory, and Kernel Parameters What’s in This Chapter? This chapter covers the following topics: • HP-UX Gang Scheduling (see page 224) • Kernel Threads vs.
Process, Threads, Memory, and Kernel Parameters HP-UX Gang Scheduling HP-UX Gang Scheduling new at 11i original release This release includes the ability to “gang schedule” MPI (Message Passing Interface) applications and multi-threaded processes. The gang scheduler permits a set of MPI processes, or multiple threads from a single process, to be scheduled concurrently as a group. Only applications using the HP-UX 11.0 (or later) MPI or pthread libraries can be gang scheduled.
Process, Threads, Memory, and Kernel Parameters Kernel Threads vs. CMA Threads Kernel Threads vs. CMA Threads new at 11i original release The CMA threads (libcma) package, which is POSIX P1003.1a (Draft 4) compliant, is based on Concert Multi Thread Architecture (CMA). CMA is a user-level threads package in which thread scheduling and synchronization are handled within the user space without the kernel's assistance. CMA threads have been deprecated (slated for future obsolescence) at HP-UX 11i.
Process, Threads, Memory, and Kernel Parameters Large Private Data Space Large Private Data Space new at 11i original release An additional 1 to 2GB of private address space is now supported for 32-bit programs (if enabled on a per process basis), at the expense of shared memory address space. This change increases the amount of private data space available for a process.
Process, Threads, Memory, and Kernel Parameters Large Private Data Space advantage of the new malloc() for a program that uses a shared version of the C library. A program that was linked with a non-shared library version of the C library, however, will need to be re-linked. These changes have no compatibility impacts if the feature is not enabled. This feature can only be enabled for 32-bit programs running on the 64-bit version of HP-UX.
Process, Threads, Memory, and Kernel Parameters Memory Windows Memory Windows Running without memory windows, HP-UX has limitations for shared resources on 32-bit applications. All applications in the system are limited to a total of 1.75GB of shared memory (2.75GB if compiled as SHMEM_MAGIC). In a system with 16GB of physical memory, only 1.75 can be used for shared resources.
Process, Threads, Memory, and Kernel Parameters Memory Windows To enable memory windows, set the kernel tunable parameter max_mem_window to the desired amount. Customers can change this value by placing the desired value in their kernel configuration file. The system must be rebooted for the new value to take effect.
Process, Threads, Memory, and Kernel Parameters HP-UX SCA Process and Memory Management HP-UX SCA Process and Memory Management new at 11i original release For compatibility reasons, the HP-UX 11i release supports the Scalable Computing Architecture (SCA) programming, locality management, and memory management features that were introduced at HP-UX 11.10 for the HP V-Class SCA servers.
Process, Threads, Memory, and Kernel Parameters Dynamic Tunables Dynamic Tunables new at 11i original release A new facility has been added which will allow the retrieving of all tunable values and the setting of a limited number of tunables. If a tunable is dynamic, a change will take place immediately, without the need to reboot the system. Such changes will persist across reboots.
Process, Threads, Memory, and Kernel Parameters Asynchronous Disk Pseudo Driver (async) Compatibility Asynchronous Disk Pseudo Driver (async) Compatibility new at 11i original release The async driver is used mostly by databases for doing asynchronous I/O to the disk. Applications that use the async driver must be owned by the superuser, or by a user who is a member of a group for which the privileges include MLOCK.
Process, Threads, Memory, and Kernel Parameters System-V InterProcess Communications (IPC) System-V InterProcess Communications (IPC) System-V IPC Message Queue Enhancement new at 11i original release System-V IPC is the System-V InterProcess Communications package developed by AT&T and comprises mechanisms for arbitrary processes to send and receive data “messages,” share virtual address space, and use semaphores to synchronize execution. This enhancement applies only to the message subsystem.
Process, Threads, Memory, and Kernel Parameters System-V InterProcess Communications (IPC) operate properly even with larger queues. Even some of those programs which do use the fields may do so in such a manner that the inaccuracy does not adversly affect program behavior. These concerns arise only for separately-built binaries which share common message queues.
Process, Threads, Memory, and Kernel Parameters System-V InterProcess Communications (IPC) Compatibility Issues The change from a hard-coded SEMMSL to a dynamic tunable is transparent to applications. In releases prior to 11i, a “SEMMSL” symbol was hardcoded to 2048 in sys/sem.h. This symbol will no longer always be an accurate representation of the maximum number of semaphores in a set. Uses of the symbol in programs should be removed.
Process, Threads, Memory, and Kernel Parameters SCSI Queue Depth Management SCSI Queue Depth Management new at 11i original release If you have multiple active paths to a SCSI device (LUN), you might need to manage your device queue depths to maximize the device’s performance. This is particularly true with dynamic multi-pathing applications—such as EMC’s PowerPath application—which allow all multiple paths to a LUN to be in use simultaneously.
Process, Threads, Memory, and Kernel Parameters Changes to mpctl() System Call Changes to mpctl() System Call new at 11i original release Some extensions have made to the mpctl() system call interface to pre-enable processor set functionality in the HP-UX 11i release. The mpctl() interface provides command requests to query system information, such as the total number of processors and locality domains in the system, and the IDs of all processors and locality domains.
Process, Threads, Memory, and Kernel Parameters Changes to mpctl() System Call 238 Chapter 10

Disk and File Management Mounting and Unmounting NFS File Systems Automatically Using AutoFS Mounting and Unmounting NFS File Systems Automatically Using AutoFS HP-UX 11i provides a daemon that mounts and unmounts NFS file systems automatically. This feature is known as AutoFS. AutoFS coexists with automount and performs the same functions as automount, but has a new, more reliable design. Additionally, AutoFS supports the NFS PV3 protocol whereas the automounter does not.
Disk and File Management Mounting and Unmounting NFS File Systems Automatically Using AutoFS /sbin/init.d/nfs.client stop This will unmount all mounted AutoFS filesystems and then kill the automountd process. To stop AutoFS without using the /sbin/init.d/nfs.client script, you must enter the following: /usr/sbin/umountall -F autofs kill automounted_pid The automount -n, -M, and -tw options are not supported in AutoFS.
Disk and File Management Mounting and Unmounting NFS File Systems Automatically Using AutoFS AUTOFS=1 AUTOMOUNT_OPTIONS=”” AUTOMOUNTD_OPTIONS=”” Documentation Change A new manpage, automountd (1M), describes the AutoFS automount daemon. The automountd (1M) manpage has been modified to describe both the old automount daemon and the new AutoFS command. Obsolescence Although all 11.0 patch bundles contain both AutoFS and automounter, AutoFS will replace automounter in a future release of HP-UX.

By default, if you do not edit the /etc/pam.conf file, the rexec and the remsh services will use the authentication mechanism specified by the OTHER directive in the /etc/pam.conf file.
Internet and Networking Services Base HP-UX Internet Services To enable the DHCP server to perform updates to the DDNS, you need to add a new tag, ddns-address. The following is a sample of a DHCP_DEVICE_GROUP entry that includes the ddns-address tag and the pcsn tag: DHCP_DEVICE_GROUP:\ ba:\ pcsn:\ class-name=SUBNET_128_XTERMINAL_GROUP:\ class-id=”xterminal:”\ subnet-mask=255.255.255.0 :\ addr-pool-start-address= 15.14.128.1 :\ addr-pool-last-address= 15.14.128.254 :\ ddns-address=1.2.3.
Internet and Networking Services Network Transport Network Transport new at 11i original release Network Transport includes ifconfig, ndd, netstat, virtual IP address, setsockopt, and t_optmgmt. All are discussed in more detail below. ifconfig The ifconfig subnet mask default now allows all 1’s or all 0’s in the masked part of the subnet field. (The subnet field is that portion of an IP address that identifies the subnet beyond the network portion of the address.
Internet and Networking Services Network Transport Specific Changes 1. All 1’s or all 0’s are now allowed in masked bits of subnet address: ip_check_subnet_addr shows whether or not that RFC1122 or RFC1878 enforces the network subnet mask. If it is a 0 (zero), then the RFC1122 behavior is seen. If it is a 1 (one), then RFC1812 is seen. The default is now RFC1812 behavior. (See ifconfig in the preceding section for more information.
Internet and Networking Services Network Transport Supported parameter values are as follows: 2 Use Timestamps option if initiated by the remote system 1 Always try to initiate the use of Timestamps option 0 Never use Timestamps option 5. With the enablement of socket caching, tcp_conn_strategy can now increase performance by setting how many cached socket structures the system keeps. The default value of 0 (zero) disables the feature. A value between 1 and 512 sets a minimum of 512.
Internet and Networking Services Network Transport Beginning at HP-UX 11i, netstat -I displays statistics accumulated since the last system reboot.

This version of the Kerberos server offers many enhancements when compared to the previous version. This section discusses the salient features of HP's Kerberos server V 2.0.
Security HP-UX Kerberos Server Version 2.0 High Availability In the event of the primary server crashing or going down, the secondary server (backup) can immediately be made the primary server. This provides for high availability in the case of mission critical applications. Also, the Kerberos server daemon (kdcd) is always monitored by a parent process. If the child process dies/crashes it will automatically spawn a new server daemon. Propagation In the Kerberos Server version 1.
14 Compatibility What’s in This Chapter? This chapter describes various compatibility issues between HP-UX 11.0 and 11i. • Compatibility from HP-UX 11.0 to 11i (see page 294) • Known Compatibility Exceptions from HP-UX 11.
Compatibility Compatibility from HP-UX 11.0 to 11i Compatibility from HP-UX 11.0 to 11i HP has a long record of providing HP-UX compatibility. Because it protects your investment and allows you to upgrade easily, compatibility is an important feature that HP has always recognized and that HP customers have come to expect. Compatibility requirements span across HP-UX products to third-party products as well.
Compatibility Compatibility from HP-UX 11.0 to 11i NOTE • Does not use documented features that are specifically described as having platform, architecture, or configuration limitations • Does not decompose an HP-UX product and then reuse the results of the decomposition For compatibility issues relevant to a particular component, see the corresponding section elsewhere in this document. Binary Compatibility An application that has run on HP-UX 11.
Compatibility Compatibility from HP-UX 11.0 to 11i • Archive and shared relocatable object compatibility: An executable that is created by linking with a shared library that has dependencies on an archive library (a situation that typically occurs when linking with archive system libraries) is not supported. • Data model relocatable object compatibility: An executable created by linking with a mixture of 32-bit and 64-bit objects is not supported. The loader will not permit this.
Compatibility Known Compatibility Exceptions from HP-UX 11.0 to 11i Known Compatibility Exceptions from HP-UX 11.0 to 11i In the following sections, a short description of an 11i change is followed by details of the compatibility exception with which it is associated. Please note that all of these compatibility exceptions are rare corner cases for well-behaved applications.
Compatibility Known Compatibility Exceptions from HP-UX 11.0 to 11i have to use HP_LD_FDP_INIT_NS instead. If the HP_LD_FDP_INIT_NS environment variable is not set and fdp_init_ns.o is in the default location, the link will fail with the file not found error message. • ONC+/NFS Security Correction This change corrects a security problem in NIS+. However, applications that are linked to the archived version of the libnsl library may have a compatibility problem.
Compatibility Known Compatibility Exceptions from HP-UX 11.0 to 11i • MAX_PROCS Changed to Enable 128 CPU Support This change enables support for 128 CPUs. The kernel macro MAX_PROCS has changed from 32 to 128 in the LP64 kernel and has changed the ABI for the undocumented system calls ki_call() and ktest_ioctl(). The MAX_PROCS change will cause an ABI incompatibility for kernel-intrusive applications or drivers which access internal kernel arrays sized by the MAX_PROCS macro.
Compatibility Known Compatibility Exceptions from HP-UX 11.0 to 11i • Support Tools Manager User Interface, EMS Hardware Monitors This change improves the usability for the STM User Interface and the EMS Hardware Monitors. As a result, any script that depends on the specific output of the EMS Hardware Monitors or specific commands or displays in the STM User Interface may have to be modified. See “HP-UX Support Tools (Diagnostics): STM, ODE, & EMS Hardware Monitors” on page 124 for more information.
Compatibility Known Compatibility Exceptions from HP-UX 11.0 to 11i • Tighter Security for NFS Mounts This change is necessary to improve the security of NFS mounts. Without this change, when you export a file system using the root= option of exportfs, NFS-clients on the root= option are allowed to mount the NFS file system even when they don't appear on the rw= list and/or access= list.
Compatibility Known Compatibility Exceptions from HP-UX 11.0 to 11i • SD Changes Behavior with Unknown Attributes This change allows packagers to use new attributes in their software packages without requiring SD to know the attribute. Specifically, the swpackage program will no longer print error messages when an unrecognized attribute is encountered. However, you must be careful when naming attributes because typographical errors will no longer be reported.
Compatibility Obsolescence and Deprecation of APIs Obsolescence and Deprecation of APIs obsoleted for June Portable File System is obsolete, and no longer supported on any HP-UX release. The 2004 PFS file system interfaces will be discontinued (no longer delivered) on HP-UX 11i v3. See “Portable File System (PFS) Obsoleted” on page 240. The following section defines the obsolescence of core system libraries and relocatable objects. Obsolescence of other products are covered in separate sections.
Compatibility Obsolescence and Deprecation of APIs • • • support is available via more standard means equivalent, enhanced, more reliable counterparts exist any or all reasons listed in the “Obsolete” section below Obsolete: An obsolete interface may have the following characteristics: • • • • • functionality is no longer available on the system runtime support is undefined cannot develop or build with this interface documentation is not provided or recommends against usage the final stage of the product
Compatibility Obsolescence and Deprecation of APIs Options Applications using CMA threads have the following options: • libcma PA applications will continue to run on future releases of HP-UX, including those supporting Intel Itanium, via compatibility mode. • Applications using libcma should start migrating to POSIX threads (libpthread). • Where the libcma development environment is still available, libcma applications can maintain their existing development environment on 11.

Programming HP-UX Shared Memory Extensions Available on Software Pack HP-UX Shared Memory Extensions Available on Software Pack new for June 2004 Now available on the June 2004 Software Pack is the HP-UX Shared Memory Extensions product, which allows applications limited by System V shared memory segment usage to support a higher number of concurrent operations or users. Shared memory is an efficient InterProcess Communications (IPC) mechanism.
Programming HP-UX Software Transition Kit (STK) HP-UX Software Transition Kit (STK) The HP-UX Software Transition Kit (STK) aids in transitioning your software from older versions of HP-UX to its latest version, from 32-bits to 64-bits, and from PA-RISC platforms to Itanium-based platforms. To do this, many tools are available to help you resolve issues such as those involving data models and API changes.
Programming HP-UX Software Transition Kit (STK) updated for September 2002 312 Check this site often for updated content. The HP-UX STK version 1.8 is the latest version, including tools and documentation to help you successfully transition your software to HP-UX 11i (version 1.0 [B.11.11] as well as 1.6 [11.22]).
Programming Libraries Libraries aC++ Runtime (libCsup*, libstd*, libstream*, librwtool*) The aC++ runtime provides the run-time environment necessary for deploying C++ based (aC++ compiled) applications on HP-UX 11i. new at 11i original release This release of the aC++ runtime includes a new ANSI-compliant Standard C++ library. (The previous version of the runtime included the “classic” C++ STL library that corresponded to the pre-standard [Sept. 1998] definition of the C++ language and library.
Programming Libraries Documentation Detailed manpages for the new library are included with the Independent Software Unit release. The new library is also discussed in aC++ Online Help. Changes to libc • Large Files Support for C++ Applications To support large files for C++ applications, libc has been modified. C++ applications can now access files greater than 2 GB. This is done by setting _FILE_OFFSET_BITS to 64 in 32-bit mode. More details can be found in the HP-UX Large Files White Paper Version 1.
Programming Libraries where the number of arenas is 8, and the expansion size is 32*4096 bytes. In general, the more arenas you use, the smaller the expansion factor should be, and vice versa. _M_SBA_OPTS turns on the small block allocator, and sets up parameters for the small block allocator, namely, maxfast, grain, num_smallblocks. Refer to mallopt() for details about the small block allocator, and its parameters. Applications usually run faster with the small block allocator turned on rather than off.
Programming Libraries Two new libraries are added: /usr/lib/libcres.a and /usr/lib/pa20_64/libcres.a. These archive libraries include the common string and memory functions along with a improved performance qsort routine. A few other selected small routines are also included. The intent of this library is to allow an application to link to this library archived while linking the application as a whole shared.
Programming Libraries Any performance gains for an application are highly dependent on the application’s use of libc.sl and what interfaces in this library are used. The fastcall technology will be delivered with all systems. If there are compatibility concerns, the applications should not be built with this technology. More API's in libc may make use of the fastcall technology in future releases. Appropriate changes to the header files will be delivered to track these changes.
Programming Libraries tracked. When the number of tracked objects reaches about 20,000, the user CPU time with the splay tree is about half the user CPU time for the old nftw(). At 100,000 tracked inodes, the user CPU time is about 90% less for the splay tree. Another performance improvement to nftw() eliminated calls to access() by checking the mode bits in the stat() buffer. This decreased system CPU time by approximately 4%.
Programming Libraries There are two portions to the thread private cache: one for ordinary blocks and one for small blocks. Small blocks are blocks that are allocated by the small block allocator (SBA), which is configured with the environment variable _M_SBA_OPTS or by calls to mallopt(3C). The small block cache is automatically active whenever both the ordinary block cache and the SBA are active. The ordinary block cache is active only when it is configured by setting _M_CACHE_OPTS.
Programming Libraries The malloc() per-thread cache is a heuristic which may or may not benefit a given kernel-threaded application that makes intensive use of malloc. Only by trying different configurations can you determine whether any speed improvement can be obtained from per-thread cache for a given application, and what the optimal tuning is for that application.
Programming Libraries Changes to libm The fesetround() and fehold() functions in fenv.h have been upgraded to the latest ISO C9x specification. Previously the functions returned nonzero to indicate success and zero to indicate failure; now they return zero to indicate success and nonzero to indicate failure. Any code that depended on the return value will need to change.
Programming Miscellaneous Miscellaneous The pstat_getfile() Interface Deprecated deprecated for June 2004 The pstat_getfile() interface is used to get information specific to a particular open file for a specified process. The pstat_getfile() interface has been deprecated and should not be used. It will be removed in a future HP-UX release. A second interface, pstat_getfile2(), should be used in its place as it provides a much more scalable interface.
Programming Miscellaneous From the OS-Core.C-KRN fileset: — /bin/cc -> /usr/ccs/bin/cc — /lib/cpp -> /usr/ccs/lbin/cpp The bundled C compiler is in the default path (/usr/ccs/bin) and will not be linked. NOTE From the DCE-CoreTools.DCE-BPRG and DCE-Core.DCE-CORE-RUN filesets: — /opt/dcelocal/lib/libdce.a -> /opt/dce/lib/libdce.a — /usr/lib/libbomb.a -> /opt/dce/lib/libbomb.a — /etc/dce.clean -> /opt/dce/bin/dce.
Programming Miscellaneous — /usr/bin/yacc -> /opt/langtools/bin/yacc — /usr/bin/lex -> /opt/langtools/bin/lex Perl Programming Language See “Perl Programming Language” on page 133. Linker and Object File Tools (ld, crt0.o, dld.sl, libdld.sl, chatr, and odump) new at 11i original release The following list summarizes the changes to linker and object file tools. Details for several of the linker changes follow the lists. Linker Changes • Incremental linking supported in 64-bit ld and elfdump.
Programming Miscellaneous Details of Linker Changes Incremental linking: Incremental linking provides significant linktime improvements for compile-link-debug development cycles by processing only those input files that are actually modified between cycles. Files that are not modified do not need to be reprocessed. For large application, incremental linking may provide up to 10x (and sometimes greater) improvements in linktime.
Programming Miscellaneous • Performance shows a definite improvement: — 32-bit ld: approximately 30% link time improvement — 64-bit ld: approximately 8% link time improvement • Support OBJDEBUG architecture in both 32-bit and 64-bit linker. • Added support for executable stack. • Added global symbol table support. • Added support for object code repository reuse. Neither functionality nor compatibility are affected by the code changes.
Programming Miscellaneous NOTE While the DCE library (libdcekt) has been ported to 64-bit, the binaries and daemons that are part of the DCE products are still 32-bit. The distinction between the International and US/Canada version of DCE components has been removed. That is, the 56-bit Data Encryption Standard (DES) which was earlier restricted to US/Canada is now available for all customers.
Programming Miscellaneous • DMS_FORCEON: DCE Measurement Service (DMS) provides performance instrumentation for DCE servers and for the server side of applications that use DCE RPCs. When DMS is enabled, it collects data about RPCs that execute in the target process. The collected data is actually displayed using HP GlancePlus. By default, DMS is disabled. DMS can be enabled exporting DMS_FORCEON=1.
Programming Miscellaneous NOTE This release includes an enhanced version of pstat(). This version repairs some existing defects by adding more fields in pst_status struct to return process children usage information. The pstat (2) manpage reflects this added functionality. The enhancement poses no problem for 11.0 executables running on 11.0 Extension Pack or 11i, nor for any executables running on 11.0 Extension Pack, as long as they do not rely on the additional functionality.
Programming Miscellaneous pst_fid Used to efficiently re-access the opened files. This value is returned by pstat_getfile2(), pstat_getproc(), and pstat_getprocvm() calls. This ID is then passed to subsequent PSTAT calls such as pstat_getsocket() to efficiently re-access the opened files. pst_filedetails This data structure contains detailed information specific to a particular open file. For a specified file, there is only one instance of this structure.
Programming Miscellaneous Machine Identifier Changes to confstr new at 11i original release New machine identifier, partition identifier, and serial number parameters have been defined for the confstr() library function. The new parameters for confstr() are defined as follows: _CS_MACHINE_IDENT Identifier for each physical machine. Returned as an opaque string of printable ascii characters.This string has the same value for all partitions in a physical machine.

Internationalization Corrected Character Mappings to iconv(1) and iconv(3C) Corrected Character Mappings to iconv(1) and iconv(3C) This release contains defect fixes for incorrect character mappings. The corrections concern the Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Japanese, and Korean characters of HP-UX. Corrected character converter mappings allow for improved interoperability when sending or receiving converted character data to/from Unicode-aware systems.
Internationalization Corrected Character Mappings to iconv(1) and iconv(3C) In the case of Big-5 to/from UCS2/UTF-8, the “Ideographic Space” character was absent in the Unicode conversion table mapping: incorrect UCS2 big5 0xA140 correct UCS2 - 0x3000 Char Name Ideographic Space The following table summarizes the changes applied for conversions between eucTW and UCS2: eucTW incorrect UCS2 correct UCS2 Character Name 0xa1a6 0x30fb 0x2022 Bullet 0xa1b7 0x2014 0x2013 EN Dash 0xa1b9 0x2013
Internationalization Corrected Character Mappings to iconv(1) and iconv(3C) No compatibility problems are anticipated.
Internationalization Corrected Character Mappings to iconv(1) and iconv(3C) Affected iconv conversions are conversions between sjis and UCS2 or UTF-8 as well as conversions between eucJP and UCS2 or UTF-8. sjis=ucs2, ucs2=sjis, eucJP=ucs2 and ucs2=eucJP are the affected iconv conversion tables. These tables are shared by both UCS2 and UTF-8 conversions. No compatibility problems are anticipated.
Internationalization EURO (ISO 8859-15 Locales) EURO (ISO 8859-15 Locales) Euro support is provided via locale support for the ISO 8859-15 character set. ISO 8859-15 is a newly ratified character set that differs from ISO 8859-1 in that it supports eight new characters. Specific enhancements are provided to allow Euro display, input, and processing capabilities. Fourteen new locales have been created based on ISO 8859-15: Table 16-9 New Locales Locale Language (Country) C.iso885915 “C” da_DK.
Internationalization EURO (ISO 8859-15 Locales) encounter a change to the decimal and thousands separators for the currency, whereas decimal and thousands separators outside the monetary area stay the same as in previous locales. For example, in the French locale, the thousands separator is a space and the decimal point is a comma. However, the international standard for the thousands separator for the euro currency is a period. So, a user that has the LC_MONETARY locale category set to “fr_FR.
Internationalization EURO (ISO 8859-15 Locales) The ISO8859-15 font set is resident on the HP 4500 Color LaserJet Printer, which contains the Euro symbol at position A4 (hexadecimal). Your data file must contain this code to print the Euro symbol. A new utility will be provided to download the fonts to the printer RAM. These fonts will then reside in the printer’s RAM until the next power cycle.
Internationalization Euro - ISO 10646/Unicode Support Euro - ISO 10646/Unicode Support new at 11i original release HP-UX 11i provides system level support for the Unicode 2.1/ISO-10646 character set. HP's support for Unicode provides a basis of enabling heterogeneous interoperability for all geographic areas. ISO-10646 is an industry standard for defining a single encoding which uniquely encodes all the characters of the modern world. Unicode 2.1 is the companion specification to ISO-10646.
