ITEM 9. UNDERTAKINGS.

               (a)    The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

                       (1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales
are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement to
include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not
previously disclosed in the registration statement of any material change to
such information in the registration statement.

                      (2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability
under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be
deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered
therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be
the initial bona fide offering thereof.

                      (3) To remove from registration by means of a
post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain
unsold at the termination of the offering.

               (b) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for
purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each
filing of the Registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section
15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing
of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the
registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement
relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities
at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

               (c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling
persons of the registrant pursuant to the Delaware General Corporation Law, the
By-Law provisions, Section 10 of the Certificate of Incorporation of the
registrant and the indemnification agreements described above in Item 6, the
registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange
Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act
and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification
against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses
paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the
successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered hereunder, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel
the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of
appropriate jurisdiction the question of whether such indemnification by it is
against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final
adjudication of such issue.

RE: REGISTRATION STATEMENT ON FORM S-8

Ladies and Gentlemen:

        We have acted as counsel to LSI Logic Corporation, a Delaware
corporation (the "Company" or "you") and have examined the Registration
Statement on Form S-8 (the "Registration Statement") to be filed by the Company
with the Securities and Exchange Commission on or about March 11, 1999 in
connection with the registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
(the "1933 Act") of 1,149,473 additional shares of your Common Stock (the "ESPP
Shares"), reserved for issuance under the LSI Logic Corporation Employee Stock
Purchase Plan Amended (the "ESPP") and 300,000 shares of your Common Stock (the
"IESPP Shares" and collectively with the ESPP Shares, the "Shares") reserved for
issuance under the LSI Logic Corporation International Employee Stock Purchase
Plan (the "ESPP" and collectively with the ESPP, the "Plans"). As your legal
counsel, we have examined the Restated Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws
of the Company, the Plans and such other documents of the Company as we have
deemed necessary or appropriate for the purposes of the opinion expressed
herein, and are familiar with the proceedings proposed to be taken by you and in
connection with the operation and administration of the Plans and the sale and
issuance of the Shares pursuant to the Plans.

        In our opinion, the Shares, when issued and sold in the manner referred
to in the Plans and pursuant to the agreements which accompany the Plans, will
be legally and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

        We consent to the use of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration
Statement and further consent to the use of our name wherever appearing in the
Registration Statement and any subsequent amendment thereto.

                                       Very truly yours,

                                       WILSON SONSINI GOODRICH & ROSATI
