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.

Fixed In Version: elfutils-0.152-2.el6
Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
Cause: eu-readelf was unable to read (some) 64-bit (s390x) ar archive files because it didn't supported the special entry /SYM64/ Consequence: eu-readelf would report "not a valid ELF file". Fix: Support for reading ar archives that contain special /SYM64/ entries has been added. Result: eu-readelf will properly read 64-bit ar archives.

Red Hat Product Errata RHEA-2014:1472 0 normal SHIPPED_LIVE elfutils bug fix and enhancement update 2014-10-14 01:10:42 UTC

Description Ed Santiago 2014-01-30 21:15:55 UTC 
eu-readelf 0.152 is unable to read (some) 64-bit s390x archives:

   not a valid ELF file

This blocks internal testing.

The fix is, I believe, commit e1873141a517738d8c50923e40525bb2ae6db68a.
Comment 2 Mark Wielaard 2014-01-30 21:54:21 UTC 
This was fedora bug #843019 for which Petr wrote a fix which was accepted upstream and part of elfutils 0.155 (indeed the commit mentioned in the description). He also wrote a backport against the fedora elfutils package elfutils-0.154-sym64.patch
