Jamie - were these three symbols newly required by lpfc in 8.2.0.33.3p or were these symbols once whitelisted and now not so much? Andrius - These symbols were newly acquired by 8.2.0.33.3p (actually around 8.2.0.31). I believe the calls themselves were introduced in RHEL 5.3. That is, not only were they not whitelisted in RHEL 5.2 and before, they didn't exist. Sounds like there is little we can do here - I don't think we can backport kernel whitelists to begin with (so it could work with 5.3), even if this got into RHEL 5.4. So all new whitelists have to be submitted at the same time driver updates are requested. We are completely out of time for RHEL 5.4. If this is of dire need, this will require escalation. Deferring to RHEL 5.5. Created attachment 375147 [details]
