RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.
This fixes the bug in tog-pegasus, which enables the embedded instanaces to have correct empty string values .
libvirt-cim requires this feature (which worked in tog-pegasus 2.9) to "unset" numerous settings for storage volumes, VCPU limits, and networking ACLs. For
example, without this fix, clients can set VCPU limits on a VM but could not remove them. That breaks all of our existing clients like Director/VMControl
and zHelix.

With SCMO implementation empty string values in embedded instances are
converted to null values during the embedded CIMInstance to SCMOInstance
conversion. This problem is happening because of the _setString() usage which
sets the string size to 0 if the string is empty. This breaks existing
providers. Proposed patch uses _SetBinary() function which is already used
while setting the string values on the normal SCMOInstance.
