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 Cole Robinson 2021-07-06 20:12:57 UTC
From Stefan on an internal thread:

  Splitting out virtiofsd would be nice. It's a vhost-user device
  emulation program that can be used by other applications. Also, the
  newer virtiofsd-rs (Rust implementation) will replace it in the future,
  so unbundling it from qemu-common lets users skip installing the old C
  daemon if they wish.

Danilo, seems to be something for the maintainers.

QE bot(pre verify): Set 'Verified:Tested,SanityOnly' as gating/tier1 test pass.

# rpm -qf /usr/libexec/virtiofsd
qemu-kvm-common-6.0.0-10.el9.x86_64

# rpm -qf /usr/libexec/virtiofsd
qemu-virtiofsd-6.0.0-11.el9.x86_64

Run a basic test case to test virtiofs, it works.
