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 William Cohen 2023-04-10 18:38:30 UTC
libpfm-4.13.0 (https://perfmon2.sourceforge.net/) is out and would address the various RHEL hardware enablement bugs filed.

Comment 7 Jacob Taylor Valdez 2023-07-26 09:24:36 UTC
Hi Will! 

After looking at this in conjunction with the hardware enablement bugs i've seen for libpfm, what would you think about consolidating all of those hardware enablement mentions here in this rebase release note instead of having 5+ individual hardware enablement release notes for libpfm?

Cheers

Comment 8 William Cohen 2023-07-26 13:31:47 UTC
It is a fine idea to consolidate the individual hardware enablement bugs into the rebase bug. That crossed my mind when I was entering the info for the individual HW enablement bugs doc text.

Comment 9 William Cohen 2023-07-28 15:46:05 UTC
Have a little blurb in doc text listing the microarchitectures supported.  Feel free to tweak it to match the standards.  Intel will probably also want sapphire rapids changed to whatever the marketing name is.

Comment 13 William Cohen 2023-09-11 13:50:35 UTC
The docs look fine to me.
