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.

Comment 1 Bill Nottingham 2008-10-02 16:37:42 UTC 
Putting in NEEDINFO pending upstream code & acceptance.
Comment 2 IBM Bug Proxy 2009-03-13 03:10:26 UTC 
I have not completed testing on the EEH patch for 48192 and addressing some issues with the patch. I will not make the deadline to mainline.

I will give an update when testing and issues are resolved.
Comment 3 Tom Coughlan 2009-09-23 19:14:01 UTC 
Is this in 2.6.31? 

If not, then get the patches upstream, and re-open this BZ providing a backport to RHEL 6 kernel 2.6.31.
Comment 4 Red Hat Bugzilla 2023-09-14 01:13:42 UTC 
The needinfo request[s] on this closed bug have been removed as they have been unresolved for 1000 days
