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 andrew.wellington 2021-07-05 05:31:54 UTC 
Description of problem:
The rebase of hwloc in RHEL 8.4 broke ABI compatibility with applications compiled against hwloc 1.11.9-3 in RHEL 8.3. A compat package containing libhwloc.so.5 to allow applications built on RHEL 8.3 to continue working is required.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
2.2.0-1.el8

How reproducible:
Build an application such as GROMACS (2019 or later when hwloc support was added) on a RHEL 8.3 system with hwloc-devel from CodeReady builder installed to allow the use of hwloc. Attempt to run application on RHEL 8.4 fails as libhwloc.so.5 is missing.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install GROMACS 2019 on RHEL 8.3 ensuring that hwloc-devel 1.11.9 is present
2. Upgrade system to RHEL 8.4
3. Attempt to run GROMACS and fail due to missing libhwloc.so.5

Actual results:
Error message:
gmx: error while loading shared libraries: libhwloc.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Expected results:
GROMACS gmx should run as it did on RHEL 8.3


Additional info:
Rebase bug is here https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1841354

A compat package to allow binaries built on RHEL 8.3 to continue working would be ideal.

Current workaround is to manually copy the previous libhwloc.so.5 libraries in place.
