Oracle Solaris 11.4.66 Release

The kldd utility has been updated with the following enhancements:

  • Adds the -S option that enables you to specify more than one sysroot as a colon-separated path.

  • Adds the -P option that permits a caller to specify the platforms to include in the analysis.

  • Updates kldd to search all combinations of the sysroots and platforms that you specify with the -S and -P options, respectively, to locate the unix kernel rather than searching the default system kernel path.

  • Updates kldd to add support for the obsolete _depends_on[] string array, which permits analysis of older, existing kernel objects. The krtld kernel runtime linker supports an obsolete, deprecated mechanism to define kernel module dependencies in which the kernel module defines a local string array named _depends_on[]. This mechanism, which is only supported for older kernel modules that are not linked with the ld -ztype=kmod option, is not recommended.
