Public bug reported:

Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS

After updating to kernel 3.13.0-77 system crashes.
First, network dies, then the whole system.
There are several kernel crashes in the logs.

OopsText:
 BUG: soft lockup - CPU#1 stuck for 23s! [smbd:5908]
--- snap ---

Followed by kernel stack traces.

After some investigation, it turned out that the crash can be triggered by Samba.
It's easily reproducible by running the following commands in the Samba master branch:
./configure.developer
TDB_NO_FSYNC=1 make -j test FAIL_IMMEDIATELY=1 SOCKET_WRAPPER_KEEP_PCAP=1 TESTS="samba3.raw.composite"

Downgrading to kernel 3.13.0-76 solves this problem.

Please let me know if we can provide more information or help testing.

Thanks!
