Table 1-1 Table 1-2 FDDI/9000 EISA Adapter Release Notes Patches and Fixes in Version B.10.20.11 PHNE_18869 (Continued) Symptom 8. Data page fault panic in fdi0_open. Defect 8. The panic was happening when the EISA FDDI device file was opened, with no EISA FDDI card configured on the system. Under these circumstances, the open routing tries to access a null board structure pointer, resulting in a data page fault panic. PHNE_17285 Symptom Defect 1. When the MTU of the EISA FDDI interface is set or reset using the lanadmin(1M) command with -M or -R options respectively, the command completes without any errors but does not set/reset the MTU value for the interface. 2. When lanadmin(1M) is used to set the physical address of the interface to the broadcast address (0xffffffffffff) or to 0 (0x0000000000000), the command succeeds. 1. When lanadmin(1M) is run with the -M option to set the MTU for the interface, or with the -R option to reset it to the default value, it sends a 'change MTU' ioctl (I/O Control) request to the driver. The driver did not handle this request nor returned an error. As a result, the lanadmin(1M) command completed without errors, but did not set/reset the MTU. 2. When the lanadmin(1M) command is used with the -A option to set the physical address of the interface to either 0xffffffffffff or 0x000000000000, the driver did not check for these addresses and set the physical address as such. This is inconsistent with the behavior of other networking cards/drivers. This behavior prevented the physical address from being set to either of the above values. Chapter 1 15
