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the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.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 of problem:
'Rule 0 is special. It cannot be deleted or overridden.' has appeared in ip-rule man-page. This sentence was removed from ip-rule man-page, as a fix of bug 1169874, because it is not true on rhel-7. It is a regression.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
iproute-3.10.0-71.el7
How reproducible:
100%
Steps to Reproduce:
# rpm -q iproute
iproute-3.10.0-71.el7.x86_64
# man ip-rule | col -b | grep 'Rule 0 is special. It cannot be deleted or overridden.'
Rule 0 is special. It cannot be deleted or overridden.
Actual results:
There is 'Rule 0 is special. It cannot be deleted or overridden.' in ip-rule man-page.
Expected results:
There is no 'Rule 0 is special. It cannot be deleted or overridden.' in ip-rule man-page.
Oh, indeed. I have fixed this upstream with following commit:
commit 0ce05841d58b42ef39ce7144dc31e77970e5d2e0

doc, man: ip-rule: Remove incorrect statement about rule 0
The documentation is wrong here: it is indeed possible to remove policy
rule 0 and recreate it afterwards. Therefore remove these statements.
