Problem Description: 

6534839 Perflib performs incorrect size of work array at dporfs routine call
6557146 Degraded parallel performance for dtrsm
6568225 Perflib BLAS1 routine cscal may produce an arithmetic error on the AMD64 processors
6577242 PERFLIB: The initial value of the input parameter IPIV is not initialized before the call
6577261 PERFLIB: sunperf_version is not found in dynamic libsunperf
6577632 PERFLIB: Application gets segv at runtime
6577744 PERFLIB: SuperLU routines are absent both in static, and dynamic library
 
(from 124869-01)
 
6546369 Perflib performs incorrect size of work array at cvbrsm routine call
6546449 PERFLIB: Run-time error with -xarch=sse2 -m64
6550700 PERFLIB: Calling (z) cgels C interface causes SEGV in run-time
6551044 Perflib performs incorrect size of work array at cgelsd routine call
6551364 Perflib:  complex complex*16 FFT routines return incorrect results for N = 2^p and p very large
6557269 X86_64:  Replace 32-bit wrappers with actual code for FFT routines from new interface
6559888 Perflib: Using "USE SUNPERF" leads to linker error

Patch Installation Instructions: 

--------------------------------
 
Refer to the man pages for instructions on using 'patchadd' and
'patchrm' scripts provided with Solaris. Any other special or
non-generic installation instructions should be described below as
special instructions.  The following example installs a patch to a
standalone machine:
 
        example# patchadd /var/spool/patch/106326-01
 
The following example removes a patch from a standalone system:
 
        example# patchrm 104945-02
 
For additional examples please see the appropriate man pages.
 
Sun Studio 12 allows finer-grained control of which zone(s) packages are
installed into.  Therefore some care may be needed when patching the
product.  For a default install into the global zone, or an "all-zones"
install, no special options should be required.  However, for an install
into a non-global zone, you should run patchadd in the non-global zone,
and provide the -G flag to patchadd.
 
It is also recommended that for SunOS 5.10 the Install and Patch Utilities
Patch be installed prior to installing this patch:
 
 sparc: 119254-34 or later
  i386: 119255-34 or later
