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.

Comment 1 Phil Sutter 2019-09-10 13:17:19 UTC 
Use this ticket to consolidate conntrack-tools issues on Big Endian architectures for RHEL8. So far, there is one upstream commit to backport:

commit f27901afb038b07532b4c31cb77bbc0bd8068253
Author: Phil Sutter <phil>
Date:   Mon Sep 2 18:39:51 2019 +0200

    conntrack: Fix CIDR to mask conversion on Big Endian
    
    Code assumed host architecture to be Little Endian. Instead produce a
    proper mask by pushing the set bits into most significant position and
    apply htonl() on the result.

Comment 2 Phil Sutter 2019-11-18 12:16:22 UTC 
Second upstream commit to backport:

commit 7c5f4b390f4b8dc02aceb0a18ed7c59ff14f392c
Author: Phil Sutter <phil>
Date:   Tue Sep 10 14:02:30 2019 +0200

    nfct: helper: Fix NFCTH_ATTR_PROTO_L4NUM size
    
    Kernel defines NFCTH_TUPLE_L4PROTONUM as of type NLA_U8. When adding a
    helper, NFCTH_ATTR_PROTO_L4NUM attribute is correctly set using
    nfct_helper_attr_set_u8(), though when deleting
    nfct_helper_attr_set_u32() was incorrectly used. Due to alignment, this
    causes trouble only on Big Endian.
