This patch contains the following software changes:


C150618:

   Problem: multithreaded albd_server crashig due to race condition between two threads working with same client. Also signal handler is logging error with non-main thread.

   Fix: Updated pfm signal handler for handling non-main threads, also added a new lock for multithreaded process to ensure one thread at a time calling pfm_signal_handler.


C163273:

   Problem: Displaying directory contents in VersionVault Explorer the first time is significantly delayed.

   Fix: Flag IS_ECLIPSING is performance intensive operation, due to which performance degradation was observed. 
Now this is controlled based on the preferences option “Decorate eclipsing resources in dynamic/automatic views (requires restart)” selected by the user.


PH40993:

   Problem: rcleartool lsview -long on an inactive automatic view provides some view information and fails with error: CRCLI2035E Unable to complete command "lsview": Please check log for more information.

   Fix: rcleartool lsview -long on an inactive automatic view will now provide all view information that can be gathered without restarting the view and complete with a successful exit code.  No error message appears.


PH52494:

   Problem: Unix user format is different from windows domain qualified name. Windows user format contains domain prefix so that it assumes both the users are different and checking out new license for same user.

   Fix: Before checking out the license, removing the domain name to make identical to non-domain usage if user is same.


PH53222:

   Problem: ClearCase on RedHat 9.0 or higher, Ubuntu 22.04.1 or higher, or Ubuntu 20.04.5 HWE kernel may experience a system crash caused by a stack overflow. 

   Fix: MVFS code was updated to correctly handle the updated structures in the affected kernel versions.


PH53226:

   Problem: "Loose" backtick in makefile causes clearmake runaway on Linux.

   Fix: Clearmake file processing now detects this and recovers.


PH53268:

   Problem: When Clearcase is stopped, MVFS unload and unmount are invoked always. This is giving errors in server only installation or when MVFS is not installed/available.

   Fix: MVFS unload and unmount are executed only when MVFS is detecte to be available.


PH55292:

   Problem: Document fails to include step to restart ClearQuest Web server.

   Fix: Updated the technote and the PDF file attached to the technote.
