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 Vojtech Trefny 2021-05-25 09:20:37 UTC 
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1918357 +++

Cloning this bug for 9.0 to make sure we don't have newer version in 8.5.

We should rebase blivet in 8.5 to the latest upstream version 3.4 (currently in development) which contains numerous bugfixes and new features like LVM VDO support.

--- Additional comment from Vojtech Trefny on 2021-01-28 15:28:56 UTC ---

List of notable changes in 3.3 release:
- XFS resize support: already backported to RHEL 8.4 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1862349
- F2FS support: mkfs only, f2fs-tools are not available in RHEL so this should not affect RHEL 8
- Better handling of unknown Device Mapper devices: blivet should no longer crash when an unknown DM device is present, instead we should be able to add it as a "basic" DMDevice and teardown/remove it
- basic LVM VDO support: already backported to 8.4 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1828745
- localization platform change from Zanata to Weblate: should affect only release process
- terminology cleanup: we changed some problematic terminology (slaves, blacklists etc.), this includes some API changes and will require Anaconda to backport https://github.com/rhinstaller/anaconda/pull/2698

Full list of changes: https://github.com/storaged-project/blivet/releases/tag/blivet-3.3.0

Planned changes for 3.4 release:
- full LVM VDO support (planned for backport to RHEL 8.4 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1509337)

Stratis support is also currently being worked on, but because it isn't supported in RHEL 8 we'll probably not include it in 3.4.0 to make the release smaller for the rebase.

The following change is part of 3.3 release:
https://github.com/storaged-project/blivet/pull/794

Since it changes the API, it needs to be reverted for RHEL-8 and verified the change is not included in RHEL-8.

I've just released 3.4.0 upstream release: https://github.com/storaged-project/blivet/releases/tag/blivet-3.4.0 The biggest change is the LVM VDO support, other that fixes for some small issues both in RHEL and Fedora and some small test suite changes.(In reply to Jan Stodola from comment #2)

I agree. We should also revert https://github.com/storaged-project/blivet/pull/889 from 3.3 which also introduces some API changes.

Vendy, would there be any anaconda changes needed if blivet is rebased to 3.4 in RHEL-8.5?

--- Additional comment from Vendula Poncova on 2021-05-21 10:40:46 UTC ---

I am not aware of any needed changes in Anaconda.
