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:
The Redfish host interface spec publishes information on BMC connectivity via smbios (https://www.dmtf.org/sites/default/files/standards/documents/DSP0270_1.0.0.pdf), and vendors would like to be able to parse this information for use in configuring host interfaces to reach the BMC.  This patch:
http://git.savannah.nongnu.org/cgit/dmidecode.git/commit/?id=78539b06117cb3c533d08f14bdf7c7ea4a1a4f0a

Enables that parsing.  If we could grab the latest dmidecode or backport this patch, we can enable that functionality.

HPE partner is requesting to update the dmidecode base version to 3.2(bz#1628992), once the RHEL7.7 branch is created, i will synchronize with the upstream code.

Thanks.
