CentOS virt - Jun 2018 - Q: how can I request to add an upstream patch to resolve a core dump issue?

UPDATE: It turned out QEMU still dumped core with that patch applied. 

That said, I'm still interested to know how to report issues with QEMU from
centos-virt repo.

Thanks,
Ray

You can open a bug on
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/enter_bug.cgi?product=ovirt-distribution&component=qemu-kvm-ev
But please note we are just rebuilding qemu-kvm-rhev provided by Red Hat so
you may want to open a bug directly on
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/enter_bug.cgi?product=Red%20Hat%20Enterprise%20Linux%207&component=qemu-kvm-rhev

Sandro,

Thanks for the information. I?ll file a bug if I believe it?s a bug with the
version of QEMU code on Centos (I have yet to figure it out).

Thanks,
Ray
