Heads up... We've hit this BUG() in v3.10.70, v3.14.27 and v3.18.7: net/core/skbuff.c: 1027 int pskb_expand_head(struct sk_buff *skb, int nhead, int ntail, 1028 gfp_t gfp_mask) 1029 { 1030 int i; 1031 u8 *data; 1032 int size = nhead + skb_end_offset(skb) + ntail; 1033 long off; 1034 1035 BUG_ON(nhead < 0); 1036 1037 if (skb_shared(skb)) 1038 BUG(); <<< BOOM!!! This appears to be a regression in the 3.10.x stable series: we've been running for 11 months on v3.10.33 without problem, we upgraded to v3.14.27 and hit the BUG(), than again on upgrading to v3.18.7, then again after downgrading to v3.10.70. We're now back on v3.10.33. The commit identified below (bda56f1) looks to be innocent as it hasn't made it into v3.10.70. Simon's email at the bottom has a proper stack trace. Sorry, my stack traces are pretty rubbish as nothing shows up in kern.log (nor rsyslog/omrelp), it appears openvswitch doesn't play nicely with netconsole, and the KVM/IP (Avocent) we're using for the consoles on these machines doesn't do scrollback, sometimes chops off the first 3 characters or so, and is very blurry.
