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 Ronald Monthero 2019-10-15 06:46:23 UTC
I encountered this issue of kvdo kernel module unable to load. 
The issue cropped up soon after a vdo install during attempt to create a vdo device as outlined below. 

kernel:  4.18.0-128.el8.x86_64
kvdo version:  kmod-kvdo-6.2.1.138-57.el8.x86_64
vdo:  vdo-6.2.1.134-11.el8.x86_64

Closing, as this was not needed for the 0-day.

Comment 5 Andy Walsh 2019-10-28 17:21:48 UTC
(In reply to Ronald Monthero from comment #1)
I think the bug you're seeing here should be tied to 1532392 instead of this BZ.
