dtrace discuss - Jun 2007 - NOTICE: cannot instrument return of fd_intr at 7b7d6278: non-canonical return instruction

Folks;

During a jumpstart (2nd boot) of a Sun Fire 240 with Solaris 10 Update 3 
(11/06), I noticed the following message;

Jun 27 11:43:33 first fbt: NOTICE: cannot instrument return of fd_intr 
at 7b7d6278: non-canonical return instruction

Kernel level was Generic_118833-33. Jumpstart was conducted using the 
standard JET modules.

What gives?

The jumpstart worked though. Solaris 10 installed just fine. SBD was 
turned off.

It''s a known problem and safe to ignore, see note 67 in the readme of 
patch 118833-36. If you have a valid sunsolve
account (which I''m sure you do being Fujitsu and all) you can get more 
details from:

Hope this helps,
Peter.
