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 Joseph Salisbury 2021-05-06 14:01:52 UTC
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1957803 +++

Microsoft received a customer report of failures when trying to take a kdump. This issue was resolved by three small Linux kernel fixes.

Microsoft would like to request this following three commits in all supported releases.  We would like to get the fixes into a RHEL/CentOS 7.9 errata kernel since the problem was originally reported on RHEL/CentOS 7.x.

Patch #1 solves a problem where the “Unable to send packet via vmbus” message is output continuously. But with that problem fixed, the second problem can occur where the kdump kernel panics due to receiving an unexpected VMbus UNLOAD complete message.

Patch #2 prevents the UNLOAD complete message from ever occurring in the kdump kernel. But if the UNLOAD complete message does occur at some unexpected time, Patch #3 prevents it from causing a panic.

Comment 3 Mohammed Gamal 2021-05-19 11:41:48 UTC
All patches are already included in CentOS Stream kernel. Closing as NEXTRELEASE
