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 Nilesh Javali (Marvell) 2019-08-01 05:42:40 UTC 
Please update iscsiuio bug fix from the latest upstream,

https://github.com/open-iscsi/open-iscsi/pull/169 

Please consider the above fix for RHEL 8.1 Inbox.

Thanks.
Comment 1 Nilesh Javali (Marvell) 2019-08-19 10:11:09 UTC 
We need z-stream packages for RHEL 8.0, RHEL 7.7, RHEL 7.6 with this fix for users who still want to use inbox iscsiuio package.
Comment 2 Chris Leech 2019-11-22 05:14:45 UTC 
these changes are already in a package build after initial update for 8.2.0
Comment 4 Chris Leech 2020-01-27 18:49:57 UTC 
This is the description of the issue that went along with the upstream change, which more directly calls out the impact on MPIO booting when one path might fail DHCP initilization.

Problem: OS fails to boot after one path is
        disconnected from iSCSI MPIO config.
Change: In the event of DHCP failure, killing of enable_nic_thread did
        not process any iscsid requests leading to error,
        iscsistart: Could not broadcast to uIP after 5 tries
        and login failure of active path.
        Added fix to not kill enable_nic_thread and allow further
        processing of iscsid requests and performing login
        to next active path.
Comment 5 Chris Leech 2020-01-27 18:52:33 UTC 
This change is also currently in 7.8
related RHEL-7 BZ 1724579
Comment 6 Rob Evers 2020-01-27 18:55:25 UTC 
Chris, Please provide justifcation for z-stream. Also indicate risk associated. Thanks
Comment 7 Chris Leech 2020-01-27 18:59:34 UTC 
Due to possible issues with reboot stability when MPIO is supposed to be increasing availability, I think this is justified for 8.1.z

The change is rather minor, and isolated to the iscsiuio component which only impacts bnx2i and qedi iSCSI controllers.  I haven't seen any issues caused by it after adding to 8.2 and 7.8 already.
Comment 8 Rob Evers 2020-01-27 19:27:54 UTC 
Not taking in z-stream due to capacity constraints and lack of direct customer request
Comment 9 Filip Suba 2020-03-19 08:15:47 UTC 
Verified SanityOnly with iscsi-initiator-utils-6.2.0.878-3.gitd791ce0.el8. Regression testing passed.
