[Bug 1572608] Re: Samba 2:4.3.8+dfsg-0ubuntu0.14.04.2 Reversion: CPU Soft Lock

[Victor Hugo dos Santos]

Hi

In my case, both servers are connected to a Windows domain... Maybe that is
the difference ??

Attentive

Title:
  Samba 2:4.3.8+dfsg-0ubuntu0.14.04.2 Reversion: CPU Soft Lock

Status in samba package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Upon upgrading to Samba 4.3.8, I encounter crippling soft lockup
  problems with smbd.  The kernel will start throwing errors (see below)
  about what appears to be the root smbd process, and the locked process
  eventually cripples all smb connections to the server.  Further, the
  process is sufficiently locked that SIGKILL has no effect.  While the
  process is locked, the system shows steadily increasing iowait on the
  CPU.

  I will also note that the Samba shares are living on Ceph RBD volumes
  formatted as XFS.  It seems unlikely, but it's conceivable that Samba
  4.3.8 introduced some new conflict with the kernel RBD module.
