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 Peter Krempa 2021-07-26 15:41:34 UTC
Description of problem:

The following commit should no longer be forward-ported once we rebase to qemu-6.1+ which already has upstream blockdev-reopen support and the appropriate libvirt version which will have the upstream patches.

commit 44a70fb199212fcfa762979d1dfa0a7b6f6eaa34 
Author: Peter Krempa <pkrempa>
Date:   Mon Mar 16 22:12:34 2020 +0100

    RHEL: Enable usage of x-blockdev-reopen
    
    RHEL-only
    
    Introduce a new capability QEMU_CAPS_BLOCKDEV_REOPEN_COM_REDHAT_AV_8_2_0_API
    based on the presence of '__com.redhat_rhel-av-8_2_0-api' feature for
    'x-blockdev-reopen' which states that reopen works for what libvirt
    is going to use it and wire up code to call the x- prefixed command.
    
    This implementation will become dormant once qemu starts supporting
    upstream-stable blockdev-reopen.

Skip pre-verification because of downstream only patches.

Comment 5 yisun 2021-10-14 07:37:03 UTC
now downstream qemu-kvm is 6.1.x so the 'blockdev-reopen' should be used
verified with following builds:
[root@dell-per730-58 qemu]# rpm -qa | egrep "qemu-kvm-6|^libvirt-7"
libvirt-7.8.0-1.el9.x86_64
qemu-kvm-6.1.0-5.el9.x86_64
