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.

linux-2.6.32-s390-qeth-chpath-change.patch

Description: qeth: allow channel path changes in suspend state
Symptom: qeth device does not recover successfully during resume
Problem: Channel path information is determined only when qeth
device is grouped. In order to recognize channel path
changes at resume time, channel path information has to
be re-determined during online setting.
One possible change is the number of OSA-supported TCP/IP
stacks determining the number of available outbound
queues. Switching them from 480 to 1920 while being
suspended results in failing recovery when resuming.
Solution: Determine channel path capabilities during online
setting of the device and reestablish outbound qdio
queues during recovery in case the number of
OSA-supported TCP/IP stacks has changed.

Server architecture(s): System z
Server type: s390x
General component: kernel
Other components involved: No

Does the server have the latest GA firmware?
Yes.

Has the problem been shown to occur on more than one system?
