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.

Red Hat Product Errata RHSA-2011:0542 0 normal SHIPPED_LIVE Important: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.1 kernel security, bug fix and enhancement update 2011-05-19 11:58:07 UTC

Description Paolo Bonzini 2011-01-05 12:25:43 UTC
Early after being resumed we need to unplug again the emulated devices.

Otherwise, after migration a PV-on-HVM domain will have again two NICs with the same MAC and two "views" of the same disk.

This is upstream commit 512b109e.

Comment 2 RHEL Program Management 2011-01-05 14:30:37 UTC
This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for inclusion
in a Red Hat Enterprise Linux maintenance release. Product Management has 
requested further review of this request by Red Hat Engineering, for potential
inclusion in a Red Hat Enterprise Linux Update release for currently deployed 
products. This request is not yet committed for inclusion in an Update release.

Comment 3 Paolo Bonzini 2011-01-11 12:55:12 UTC
In particular, migration may show messages like

ata1.00: ATA-7: QEMU HARDDISK, 0.8.2, max UDMA/100
ata1.00: 13687317 sectors, multi 16: LBA48
ata1.00: Drive reports diagnostics failure. This may indicate a drive
ata1.00: fault or invalid emulation. Contact drive vendor for information.
ata1.00: configured for MWDMA2
scsi 0:0:0:0: Direct-Access      ATA      QEMU HARDDISK    0.8. PQ: 0 ANSI: 5
scsi 0:0:0:0: Attached scsi generic sg1 type 0

Comment 4 Aristeu Rozanski 2011-02-03 17:25:22 UTC
Patch(es) available on kernel-2.6.32-112.el6

Comment 7 Yufang Zhang 2011-04-07 08:02:43 UTC
QA verified this bug with 2.6.32-128.el6:

1. start a xen hvm guest with 2.6.32-128.el6 kernel installed.

2. check vif and xvd* devices within the guest.

3. save and restore the guest.

At step 2, no emulated devices are shown within the guest; At step 3, still no emulated devices are shown within the guest after restore.

So change this bug to VERIFIED.
