Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.
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.

Description George Beshers 2014-02-07 16:28:15 UTC
Full technical justification for each of the requested symbols: a sentence describing the reason how each symbol is used, and why it should be added to the whitelist. Note: this step is critical. Without any technical justification, the symbols are automatically rejected.

Attach the updated 'ksc-result.txt' file to it. Note that a single Bugzilla may be used to submit multiple symbol requests via the ksc-result.txt file.

Please remember to set your partner confidential field before you submit and please add to your partner tracker Bugzilla.

Hi Jiri,

The attachment is a tar file with a number of files requesting
symbols divided into top level directories.

Still working on the justification for some of the symbols, but
should be done soon.

George

Comment 9 George Beshers 2014-02-13 19:20:22 UTC
Hi Jiri,

These symbols and descriptions should be ready for review.
Let me know if there are issues as I took a few liberties
with the format.

George
