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 Vladimir Benes 2019-09-26 13:27:25 UTC
Description of problem:
we would love to see CONFIG_WIFI_DISPLAY to be enabled so we can build some more apps on top of that (like gnome-network-displays)

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
wpa_supplicant-2.7

Comment 2 Ken Benoit 2020-02-19 15:34:36 UTC
Checking the source of wpa_supplicant-2.9-2 from RHEL-8.2.0-20200211.n.0 I can confirm that CONFIG_WIFI_DISPLAY=y is set in build-config. Given the fact that none of the other pieces for wifi displays to work is in place (gnome-network-displays, or even the ability to configure p2p connections from within Gnome settings) I can only confirm that this change has been made to wpa_supplicant, and not actually configure a connection to a miracast capable device. Marking this as verified for the change is there, but again noting that this is untestable at the moment.
