Red Hat Product Errata RHSA-2012:0150 0 normal SHIPPED_LIVE Moderate: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.8 kernel update 2012-02-21 07:35:24 UTC

Description Paolo Bonzini 2011-06-10 15:57:00 UTC
http://xenbits.xen.org/hg/staging/xen-unstable.hg/rev/19653

Note to QA: no testcase (would require a cooperating hypervisor, perhaps we can provide it), but the patch is obvious.

Comment 2 RHEL Program Management 2011-08-04 04:14:06 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 4 Jarod Wilson 2011-08-23 14:03:11 UTC
Patch(es) available in kernel-2.6.18-282.el5
You can download this test kernel (or newer) from http://people.redhat.com/jwilson/el5
Detailed testing feedback is always welcomed.

Is there still no test case or a cooperating hypervisor now?

Comment 7 Jinxin Zheng 2011-12-22 06:52:16 UTC
Hello?

If there's no dedicated testing hypervisor, we could only do sanity check ..

Comment 8 Paolo Bonzini 2011-12-22 10:21:37 UTC
Yes, please.
