kmodtool used for test; basically rhel version, without rpm call
Indeed. These symbols will be considered in the next update (5.3). Meanwhile, I can show you how to disable the checking for these symbols in your RPM, if you would like a temporary workaround?

Thank you, and yes I'd be interested in a workaround, here or off-list (off-zilla, as it were), as you'd like. -Ed This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for inclusion, but this component is not scheduled to be updated in the current Red Hat Enterprise Linux release. If you would like this request to be reviewed for the next minor release, ask your support representative to set the next rhel-x.y flag to "?". I have posted the attached patch internally for consideration in the 5.3 kernel. It is now awaiting internal discussion and signoff. I will update this bug with the results from that process. In the meantime, please let me know if you are planning to ship a module on systems prior to 5.3 and require a temporary workaround for this whitelist omission. Created attachment 314723 [details]
