Patch Installation Instructions:
--------------------------------
For Solaris 7-9 releases, refer to the man pages for instructions on
using 'patchadd' and 'patchrm' scripts provided with Solaris.
Any other special or non-generic installation instructions should be
described below as special instructions.  The following example
installs a patch to a standalone machine:
 
        example# patchadd /var/spool/patch/106326-01
 
The following example removes a patch from a standalone system:
 
        example# patchrm 104945-02
 
For additional examples please see the appropriate man pages.

Special Install Instructions:
-----------------------------
 
If you are compiling or linking programs or shared libraries
using -xprofile=collect, it is strongly recommended that you also
install the most recent version of the following patches for the
corresponding compiler products shown below:
 
        product     patch
        -------     -----
        C++ 5.5     113817-02 or later
        F95 7.1     112762-03 or later
 
Patch 112763-03 or later provides a new object file "prof_tsd.o" which
exports global routines required at runtime for correct execution
of MT applications that dynamically link with shared libraries
that have been compiled and linked with -xprofile=collect.
In order to pass "prof_tsd.o" to the linker when a program
is linked with -xprofile=collect, changes to the cc, CC, and
f95 drivers are required.  These driver changes are provided
in the above patches to the C, C++, and F95 products.
 
To test whether you have installed the patches correctly, use the
following test case, which consists of a C++ source file "main.cc",
two C source files "test.c" and "shared.c", and a shell script "try.sh"
which compiles and links "main.cc" and test.c" into a profiled program
"main", and also compiles and links "shared.c" into a profiled shared
library "shared.so":
 
    % cat main.cc
 
    extern "C" test_();
 
    int
    main()
    {
        test_();
        return 0;
    }
 
    % cat test.c
 
    #include <thread.h>
    #include <dlfcn.h>
    #include <link.h>
    #include <stdio.h>
    #include <stdlib.h>
    #include <errno.h>
    static void
    dlerror_message(const char *fn)
    {
        const char *msg = dlerror();
        fprintf(stderr, "%s() failed", fn);
        if (msg != NULL)
        {
            fprintf(stderr, ": %s", msg);
        }
        fprintf(stderr, "\n");
    }
    void *
    foo(void* cookie)
    {
        void *hndl = dlopen("./shared.so", RTLD_NOW);
        if (hndl == NULL)
        {
            dlerror_message("dlopen");
        }
        else /* hndl != NULL */
        {
            void *f = dlsym(hndl, "function_f");
            if (f == NULL)
            {
                dlerror_message("dlsym");
            }
            else
            {
                ((void(*)(void))f)();
            }
            dlclose(hndl);
        }
        return NULL;
    }
    int test_()
    {
        thread_t tid;
        thr_create(NULL, 0, foo, NULL, THR_BOUND|THR_NEW_LWP, &tid);
        thr_join(tid, NULL, NULL);
        printf("end of test\n");
        return 0;
    }
 
    % cat shared.c
 
    #include <stdio.h>
    void
    function_f(void)
    {
        printf("Here's function f\n");
    }
 
To compile and execute the installation test case, use
the following shell script:
 
    % cat try.sh
    #!/bin/sh
    set -x
    cc -O -mt -xprofile=collect -KPIC shared.c -G -o shared.so \
    && cc -O -mt -xprofile=collect test.c -c \
    && CC -O -mt -xprofile=collect main.cc test.o -o main \
    && rm -rf main.profile \
    && ./main \
    && ls main.profile
 
There are four (4) installation cases to consider.
 
Case 0 (no patches installed):
------------------------------
 
If neither patch 112763-03 or later (Common Compiler S1S8CC) nor
patch 113817-02 or later (C++ 5.5) has been installed correctly,
both the program "main" and the shared library "shared.so" will
compile and link without errors, but the process will abort at
runtime with a Segmentation Fault:
 
    % sh try.sh
    + cc -O -mt -xprofile=collect -KPIC shared.c -G -o shared.so 
    + cc -O -mt -xprofile=collect test.c -c 
    + CC -O -mt -xprofile=collect main.cc test.o -o main 
    + rm -rf main.profile 
    + ./main 
    Segmentation Fault - core dumped
 
Case 1 (missing C++ 5.5 patch):
-----------------------------
 
If patch 112763-03 or later (Common Compiler S1S8CC) has been installed
correctly, but patch 113817-02 or later (C++ 5.5) has not, both
the program "main" and the shared library "shared.so" will
compile and link without errors, but the shared library
"shared.so" will print a warning message at runtime and will
run with MT profile collection disabled.
 
    % sh try.sh
    + cc -O -mt -xprofile=collect -KPIC shared.c -G -o shared.so 
    + cc -O -mt -xprofile=collect test.c -c 
    + CC -O -mt -xprofile=collect main.cc test.o -o main 
    + rm -rf main.profile 
    + ./main 
    profile feedback: dlsym() could not find function __new_profile_thread_list_ops()
    warning: MT profile collection disabled for object file
"/home/joe/bugs/4860689/tmp/shared.o"
    Here's function f
    end of test
    + ls main.profile
    feedbin         feedbin.lock
 
Note that in this case, despite the runtime warning message, the
feedback file main.profile/feedbin was generated.   In an actual MT
application, some of the profile data in the feedback file may be
inaccurate, due to concurrent attempts to update profile counters
by multiple threads.  If multiple threads simultaneously attempt to
close the same profiled shared library by calling dlclose(3DL), the
contents of the feedback file may be corrupted or lost.
 
Case 2 (missing Common Compiler S1S8CC patch):
----------------------------------------------
 
If patch 113817-02 or later (C++ 5.5) has been installed correctly
but patch 112763-04 or later (Common Compiler S1S8CC) has not, the program
"main" will fail to link correctly.  A message from the driver (CC)
will indicate that the required object file "prof_tsd.o" is missing:
 
    % sh try.sh
    + cc -O -mt -xprofile=collect -KPIC shared.c -G -o shared.so 
    + cc -O -mt -xprofile=collect test.c -c 
    + CC -O -mt -xprofile=collect main.cc test.o -o main 
    CC: Cannot find /opt/SUNWspro/prod/lib/prof_tsd.o
 
Case 3 (both C++ 5.5 and Common Compiler S1S8CC patch installed correctly):
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
If patch 112763-04 or later (Common Compiler S1S8CC) and patch 113817-02
or later (C++ 5.5) have both been installed correctly, both the
program "main" and the shared library "shared.so" will compile,
link, and execute correctly, producing a profile feedback file
"main.profile/feedbin":
 
    % sh try.sh
    + cc -O -mt -xprofile=collect -KPIC shared.c -G -o shared.so 
    + cc -O -mt -xprofile=collect test.c -c 
    + CC -O -mt -xprofile=collect main.cc test.o -o main 
    + rm -rf main.profile 
    + ./main 
    Here's function f
    end of test
    + ls main.profile
    feedbin         feedbin.lock
