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.

Windows qemu-ga should report Windows 2019 in osinfo, see bug 1563004 for details

A patch which implements this functionality was sent upstream and applied to downstream:

https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2018-12/msg04800.html

build:
http://brew-task-repos.usersys.redhat.com/repos/scratch/sjubran/mingw-qemu-ga-win/7.6.2/3.el7ev/

Test with this build, can get correct win2019 guest os info.
result:

{"execute": "guest-get-osinfo"}
{"return": {"name": "Microsoft Windows", "kernel-release": "17763", "version": "Microsoft Windows Server 2019", "variant": "server", "pretty-name": "Windows Server 2019 Datacenter", "version-id": "2019", "variant-id": "server", "kernel-version": "10.0", "machine": "x86_64", "id": "mswindows"}}

Hi Amnon, Sammeh,

The provided package(mingw-qemu-ga-win-7.6.2-3.el7ev) is for rhel7, should we generate one for rhel8?

Only one version is better from packaging point of view.

Hi Amnon, Yan,

What's the plan about version issue?

Test with mingw-qemu-ga-win-100.0.0.0-3.el7ev, can get correct win2019 guest os info.
result:

{"execute":"guest-get-osinfo"}
{"return": {"name": "Microsoft Windows", "kernel-release": "17763", "version": "Microsoft Windows Server 2019", "variant": "server", "pretty-name": "Windows Server 2019 Datacenter", "version-id": "2019", "variant-id": "server", "kernel-version": "10.0", "machine": "x86_64", "id": "mswindows"}}
