Dear SCO Customer, Support Level Supplement (SLS) ptf7632e, the UnixWare 7.1.1 pci Driver Supplement, addresses all of the problems listed below. SLS ptf7632c addressed these issues: 1. PCI devices of class 'bridge' are not handled correctly and therefore are not recognized. The device may appear in the DCU, but without entries for IOADDR or MEMADDR. The configurable parameter 'pci_skip_bridges' has been introduced to control whether bridge devices are skipped or not. SLS ptf7632c sets this value to zero. The normal UnixWare 7.1.1 behavior of ignoring PCI bridges can be reinstated by editing the file: /etc/conf/pack.d/pci/space.c and setting pci_skip_bridges to 1 as below: int pci_skip_bridges = 1; followed by a relink/reboot. 2. A panic related to the use of hot plug features has been addressed. The hot plug code unsuccessfully tries to reference the expansion ROM information data. SLS ptf7632d addressed this issue: 3. PCI probe uses BIOS. SLS ptf7632e additionally addresses this issue: 4. A panic occurs on some large memory machines due to a NULL pointer dereference in the PCI driver.
