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 Jonathan Maxwell 2019-11-28 22:26:29 UTC
Description of problem:

RFE to update ipvsadm on RHEL8 to include Maglev hashing.

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

RHEL 8.1

Actual results:

The Maglev hashing is already available in the ipvs module:

$ git log --oneline kernel-4.18.0-147.el8 | grep -i Maglev
30edf801d7ed netfilter: ipvs: Add configurations of Maglev hashing
039f32e8cdea netfilter: ipvs: Add Maglev hashing scheduler

But the current ipvsadm 1.29-8 is outdated and does not support Maglev hashing.

Expected results:

Update the ipvsadm packet so that it supports Maglev hashing.

For support of Maglev Hashing(mh), ipvsadm v1.30 is required as per: https://lwn.net/Articles/792617
