[Bug 1403152] Re: unregister_netdevice: waiting for lo to become free. Usage count

 

At this point a proper reproducer would help the most. This way we could
get crashdumps and other useful information that may not be possible in
production environments.

Reading through the bug the best description I can see is:
1) Start LXC container
2) Download > 100MB of data
3) Stop LXC container
4) Repeat until you see the kernel message

For example, I can script this a bit:
#!/bin/bash
# setup
sudo lxc-create -t download -n u1 -- -d ubuntu -r trusty -a amd64
fallocate -l 1000000 file
IP=$(sudo lxc-attach -n u1 -- hostname -I)
# test
while true; do
  sudo lxc-start --name u1 -d
  ssh ubuntu@$IP rm file
  scp file ubuntu@$IP:
  sudo lxc-stop --name u1
done

Running this on my machine doesn't show a failure. So I suspect there are other variables involved. Please let us know other relevant info that would help isolate a reproducer for this.
Thanks,

  power management:

  somehow reproducable the subjected error, and lxc is working still but
  not more managable until a reboot.

  managable means every command hangs.

  I saw there are alot of bugs but they seams to relate to older version
  and are closed, so i decided to file a new one?

  I run alot of machine with trusty an lxc containers but only these kind of machines produces these errors, all
  other don't show these odd behavior.

  thx in advance
