29.6. Solaris

Some people have been experiencing problems with F_SETLKW64/fcntl +when running samba on solaris. The built in file locking mechanism was +not scalable. Performance would degrade to the point where processes would +get into loops of trying to lock a file. It woul try a lock, then fail, +then try again. The lock attempt was failing before the grant was +occurring. So the visible manifestation of this would be a handful of +processes stealing all of the CPU, and when they were trussed they would +be stuck if F_SETLKW64 loops.

Sun released patches for Solaris 2.6, 8, and 9. The patch for Solaris 7 +has not been released yet.

The patch revision for 2.6 is 105181-34 +for 8 is 108528-19 +and for 9 is 112233-04

After the install of these patches it is recommended to reconfigure +and rebuild samba.
