Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.
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 dehanmeng 2022-12-27 08:23:37 UTC
Description of problem:
    qga: Replace 'blacklist' command line and config file options by 'block-rpcs'
    
    Let's use a more appropriate wording for this command line and config
    file option. The old ones are still accepted for compatibility reasons,
    but marked as deprecated now so that it could be removed in a future
    version of QEMU.

Comment 2 Yanan Fu 2023-01-13 03:26:02 UTC
QE bot(pre verify): Set 'Verified:Tested,SanityOnly' as gating/tier1 test pass.

Comment 6 dehanmeng 2023-01-17 07:00:15 UTC
Reproduce this part with the previous qemu-guest-agent.rpm   qemu-guest-agent-7.2.0-3.el9

actual result:
[root@xxx-xxxxx ~]# cat /usr/lib/systemd/system/qemu-guest-agent.service
... 
  --blacklist=${BLACKLIST_RPC} \


expected result:
blacklist should be replaced with block-rpcs.


Verify this part with the fixed version of qemu-guest-agent.rpm qemu-guest-agent-7.2.0-4.el9

actual result:
[root@xxx-xxxx ~]# cat /usr/lib/systemd/system/qemu-guest-agent.service
...  
  --block-rpcs=${BLOCK_RPCS} \
...
expected result:
as the actual result.
