Warp 4/WSeB/MCP/ACP Kernels updated (from Mark Dodel)
On Jan. 12, 2001 IBM OS/2 Fix Distribution released updated kernels. The contain fixes since xr_e002/xr_m015/mcp/acp:
  • WSeb/ACP SMP (D is debug version)
    • SMP0111.ZIP
    • SMP0111D.ZIP
  • WSeB/ACP Uni/MCP (D is debug version)
    • UNI0111.ZIP
    • UNI0111D.ZIP
  • Warp4 (D is debug version)
    • W40111.ZIP
    • W40111D.ZIP
  • New function:
    1. Support for >64m memory using int15 func e820. Note, this support is enabled ONLY for Intel Pentium Pro or later, or non-Intel Pentium-class machines. This is done in an effort to prevent problems on older PCs.
    2. The presence of \os2\boot\os2norev.$$$ suppresses the display of internal revision during boot.
  • Bug Fixes:
    • JR13335: Some VDMs won't run, complaining of too-long command lines
    • JR15194: XCOPY fails with SYS1186 or SYS1192 on (at least) MO drives
    • JR15038: Trap 8 in h_DeviceHelpDM running an app from a tcpbeui drive
    • JR15229: Files left open after ERROR_TOO_MANY_OPEN_FILES returned to app
    • PJ27676: Causes hangs on some systems running UNI or W4 kernels
    • PJ27554: Hang or (on allstrict) trap 3 on SMP (only) during beeps
    • PJ27678: SMP kernels could not be RIPL-booted. As part of this, there is a new config.sys parameter I13PAGES= available. Adding I13PAGES=1 to config.sys (note, no SET) reduces the memory usage of the mini VDM processes used by ibm1s506.add and the GRADD drivers. This becomes important in RIPL-boot situations.
    • PJ27677: SMP systems hang with multiple threads of same process entering a critical section (affects ADSM client)
See README in the zip for Install Instructions.
Disclaimer: These interim fixes will be supported by IBM until the next fixpack is available or until superceded by a newer interim fix. At the discretion of IBM, you may be required to revert to GA (i.e. MCP/ACP/fixpack) code to pursue specific support issues.
