and has simply been removed. The data that used to be stored there is
replicated already in p_comm, which is correct and still exists.
The array pst_cmds has been removed and replaced with a string
pointer to the process field p_cmnd. The field is still limited to 64
characters, although this may be increased in a future release. This
table, as well as the proc and kthread symbols, no longer work on
crashdumps from this release.
Impact
Unsupported or outdated scripts that reference the proc and kernel
tables as well as the proc and kthread symbols no longer work on
crashdumps from this release. Descriptions of manual procedures
regarding crash analysis mayalso no longer work on crashdumps from
this release.
Compatibility Issues
Supported q4 scripts that reference the proc and kernel tables as well as
the proc and kthread symbols were modified to be compatible. The q4
script file, processes.pl, is available in the file sytem at
/usr/contrib/lib/q4lib/process.pl.
