Oracle is pleased to announce the general availability of Enterprise Linux Release 5 Update 3 for x86 (32 bit) and x86_64 (64 Bit) architectures.This update includes the following kernel/driver changes: Bug Fixes added by Oracle * Add entropy module option to e1000 and bnx2 [ORA 6045759] * shrink zone patch [orabug 6086839] * xen pv/bonding netconsole support [orabug 6993043] * convert ENETUNREACH to ENOTCONN [orabug 7689332] Fixes/Additions from the upstream distribution provider * autofs4 is backported from linux kernel version 2.6.27. * the MAX_ARG_PAGES limit that is set in the kernel has been increased to 25 percent of the stack size. * Buffer size limit for on-memory buffers for relayfs has been increased to 4095MB from 64MB. * Kernel module pata_si1680 added to provide driver for Dell Remote Access Controller 4 (DRAC4). * Added support for Dell Wireless Wide Area Network (WWAN) //cards to the kernel which enables support for following devices - Dell Wireless 5700 Mobile Broadband CDMA/EVDO Mini-Card - Dell Wireless 5500 Mobile Broadband HSDPA Mini-Card - Dell Wireless 5505 Mobile Broadband HSDPA Mini-Card - Dell Wireless 5700 Mobile Broadband CDMA/EVDO ExpressCard - Dell Wireless 5510 Mobile Broadband HSDPA ExpressCard - Dell Wireless 5700 Mobile Broadband CDMA/EVDO Mini-Card - Dell Wireless 5700 Mobile Broadband CDMA/EVDO Mini-Card - Dell Wireless 5720 - Dell Wireless HSDPA 5520 - Dell Wireless HSDPA 5520 - Dell Wireless 5520 Voda I Mobile Broadband (3G HSDPA) Mini-Card * Added support for DSR/DTR hardware flow control by updating the driver for 8250 based serial ports. * Kernel updated to enable oprofile to identify processors based on Next-Generation Intel Microarchitecture (Nehalem) and support the CPU power state, C3, on the Next-Generation Intel Microarchitecture (Nehalem). * The soft lockup detector can now be configured to trigger a kernel panic instead of a warning message. * Added large memory configuration support to the Machine Check Exception (MCE) kernel subsystem. * NMI watchdog code updated to allow users to disable the NMI source which enables users to safely configure kernel parameter kernel.unknown_nmi_panic without causing kernel panic. * powernowk8 driver updated on x86 architecture to verify that the number of supported CPUs (supported_cpus) equals the number of online CPUs (num_online_cpus). * Added support for kprobe_booster on x86_64 architectures. This will allow faster probing of kernel events. * For x86_64 architecture kernel updated to support _PTC (Processor Throttling Control), _TSS (Throttling Supported States) and _TPC (Throttling Present Capabilities) objects. * Added support for the iSCSI Boot Firmware Table (iBFT) // which allows for booting from iSCSI devices.. * The iSCSI target capability, delivered as part of the Linux Target (tgt) framework, is fully supported in this release. * Added support for block device encryption using the Linux Unified Key Setup (LUKS) specification. * The openssl packages upgrade the OpenSSL** library to a newer upstream version. This version of OpenSSL library is currently undergoing the Federal Information Processing Standards validation process (FIPS-140-2). To maintain the ABI compatibility with the openssl packages of previous release, the FIPS mode is disabled by default. * Rebased cups with full Kerberos support * Rebased ksh, lm-sensors, net-snmp, gdb, OpenIPMI,openldap,openmotif, python-urlgrabber, rpm, tog-pegasus, vnc,yum,yum-utils * Added support for o private futexes o preempt-notifiers implementation o tracepoint/markers infrastructure o response oriented wake up behavior to scheduler o PCI domain o RAID 4/5/10 in dmraid * Fixed gettimeofday for HPET, PMTimer, TSC * Increased stack size for ia32 application * Open Fabrics Enterprise Distribution (OFED) / opensm updated to the upstream version 3.2. The format of the opensm.conf file has changed in this release. Any modification done to your existing opensm.conf file has to be migrated to /etc/ofed/opensm.conf.rpmnew and the current file /etc/ofed/opensm.conf file need to be replaced the the new migrated one. o Due to this change applications build on top of the following OFED stack might require recompilation or even source-level code changes : + dapl + compat-dapl + ibsim + ibutils + infiniband-diags + libcxgb3 + libehca + libibcm + libibcommon + libibmad + libibumad + libibverbs + libipathverbs + libmlx4 + libmthca + libnes + librmdacm + libsdp + mpi-selector + mpitests + mstflint + mvapich + mvapich2 + ofed-docs + openib + openib-mstflint + openib-perftest + openib-tvflash + openmpi + opensm + perftest + qlvnictools + qperf + srptools + tvflash Driver Updates Network * bnx2 updated to version 1.7.9. * e1000e updated to version 0.3.3.3-k2. * igb updated to version 1.2.45-k2 to support for 82576 based devices. * ixgbe updated to version 1.3.18-k4. * myri10ge updated to version 1.3.2-1.269. * netxen updated to version 3.4.18. * bnx2x updated to version 1.45.23 to support 57711 hardware. * Added niu driver to support 10Gbps ethernet devices on Sun CP3220 systems. * Driver for ZyDas Wireless devices zd1211rw updated to match the last non-mac80211 . * The following drivers were backported from Linux Kernel 2.6.25: o ipw2100 and ipw2200 o bcm43xx o ieee80211 support component for wireless devices * The following drivers were backported from Linux Kernel 2.6.26: o ath5k for Antheros wireless devices o rt2x00 for Ralink wireless devices o rtl8180 and rtl8187 drivers for Realtek wireless devices o iwlwifi adding 802.11n support to iwl4965 wireless devices.
