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 Jiri Hladky 2012-02-26 20:42:38 UTC 
Description of problem:

hwloc 1.4 is now available upstream. What are the plans to update hwloc in RHEL6?

I maintain hwloc package for Fedora and I can can make new package "hwloc14" available for EPEL6 if there are no plans to update hwloc in RHEL6. 
 

Thanks
Jirka
Comment 1 Don Zickus 2012-02-27 18:55:10 UTC 
I can request an update for 6.4 and see if it gets approved.  I won't know for a few months though.

Cheers,
Don
Comment 2 Jiri Hladky 2012-02-29 23:05:40 UTC 
Hi Don,

it sounds like a good plan. Please let us know the status once 6.4 is finalized.

Thanks 
Jirka

I have updated to v1.5 and will push that out to 6.4 barring any unforseen issues.

Cheers,

Comment 19 John Brier 2012-11-05 21:30:49 UTC 
hwloc 1.5.1 was released on October 17th:

I am curious if we want to package that instead or stick with 1.5?

http://www.open-mpi.org/community/lists/hwloc-announce/2012/10/0045.php

 The Hardware Locality (hwloc) team is pleased to announce the release
of v1.5.1:

   http://www.open-mpi.org/projects/hwloc/

v1.5.1 is a bug fix release which addresses all known bugs in the
v1.5 serie.

* Fix block OS device detection on Linux kernel 3.3 and later.
  Thanks to Guy Streeter for reporting the problem and testing the fix.
* Fix the cpuid code in the x86 backend (for FreeBSD). Thanks to
  Sebastian Kuzminsky for reporting problems and testing patches.
* Fix 64bit detection on FreeBSD.
* Fix some corner cases in the management of the thissystem flag with
  respect to topology flags and environment variables.
* Fix some corner cases in command-line parsing checks in hwloc-distrib
  and hwloc-distances.
* Make sure we do not miss some block OS devices on old Linux kernels
  when a single PCI device has multiple IDE hosts/devices behind it.
* Do not disable I/O devices or instruction caches in hwloc-assembler output.

Hi,

I definitely agree that it makes sense to go for 1.5.1

I have updated master branch of hwloc for Fedora in case that anybody would like to test 1.5.1. My local tests all went through.

Verified.
