Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.
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.

Description Simon Rowe 2011-10-24 10:27:11 UTC
The kernel-headers RPM does not contain include/xen. This prevents rebuilding any modules that reference a header file under that directory.

Affects both RHEL 6.0 and 6.1

Comment 2 RHEL Program Management 2011-10-28 05:47:25 UTC
Since RHEL 6.2 External Beta has begun, and this bug remains
unresolved, it has been rejected as it is not proposed as
exception or blocker.

Red Hat invites you to ask your support representative to
propose this request, if appropriate and relevant, in the
next release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

Comment 3 Vitaly Kuznetsov 2014-07-03 14:08:32 UTC
I'd like to close this old bug. In RHEL6 kernel we have:
$ rpm -qpl kernel-headers-2.6.32-431.el6.x86_64.rpm  | grep xen
/usr/include/xen
/usr/include/xen/evtchn.h

upstream kernel has:
$ cat include/uapi/xen/Kbuild 
# UAPI Header export list
header-y += evtchn.h
header-y += gntalloc.h
header-y += gntdev.h
header-y += privcmd.h

In RHEL6 we don't have gntalloc.h, gntdev.h, and privcmd.h

also there is the kernel-devel package for building modules.
