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 Lucas López Montero 2021-06-07 13:55:40 UTC
Description of problem:

The fix for Bug 1819868 has introduced a new issue related to its implementation of rate limiting.

See more details on this discussion [1], where the problem was reported. Description provided:

Rate limiting the mount_event_source can cause unmount events to be
missed, which leads to mount unit cgroups being leaked (not cleaned up
when the mount is gone).


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Systemd 248.2.

Comment 5 Michal Sekletar 2021-06-24 11:40:03 UTC
The fix was merged upstream hence we can proceed with the backport to RHEL-8.4 (problematic code isn't in any older release hence I am changing ZTR accordingly).

Comment 6 Lucas López Montero 2021-07-07 07:57:44 UTC
Is there news about the backport to RHEL 8.4? Thank you.
