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 Osher De Paz 2022-06-23 14:54:02 UTC 
Description of problem:
We (assisted-installer team which are related to OpenShift product) are currently experiencing some problems when trying to use swtpm version 0.7.0 in our tests. The bug is documented better in this GitHub issue: https://github.com/stefanberger/swtpm/issues/644

We would like RHEL 8.6 to have the updated patch version 0.7.1 of swtpm, because it contains the bug-fix for that problem.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
swtpm/swtpm-tools/swtpm-libs 0.7.0

How reproducible:
The original bug is a race-condition, affecting around 60% of selected jobs.

Hi Danilo,

Any chance this can get a priority? it is impacting our CI:

Assigning to the right engineer so he can decide.
Comment 3 Marc-Andre Lureau 2022-07-18 17:58:40 UTC 
The patch looks safe enough to backport:
https://github.com/stefanberger/swtpm/commit/27d4c5d83ff014f3b08cb7fc8ffdbfc32306cfbb

Do we need it in 8.6z, or can we simply target 8.7?
Comment 4 Osher De Paz 2022-07-18 18:10:45 UTC 
For our team needs it's crucial to have it for 8.6 because that's the version our cloud provider and the QE machines are set on
