Settings ack for inclusion in 5.1.z stream. Reassigning to Chris at his request. Updating to urgent to get z-stream ack. This needs to be fixed in the kernel rpm. __clean_user needs to be added to the ppc kernel whitelist (as it is already on the x86_64 & x86 whitelists). We're currently working around the issue in 5.1, but it should be in 5.2 if at all possible. The actual symbol is __clear_user (not __clean_user), I've updated the bug subject. in kernel-2.6.18-73.el5 You can download this test kernel from http://people.redhat.com/dzickus/el5 verified __clear_user is being exported on ppc and I could install the 2.6.18-88.el5 kernel rpm without issues. An advisory has been issued which should help the problem described in this bug report. This report is therefore being closed with a resolution of ERRATA.
