Lars, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in 
it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you 
please test the latest upstream kernel available following 
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional 
upstream developers to examine the issue. Please do not test the daily folder, 
but the one all the way at the bottom. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, 
please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is 
fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags:
kernel-fixed-upstream
kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For 
example:
kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.11-rc5

This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next 
to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please 
remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags:
kernel-bug-exists-upstream
kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

If you are unable to test the mainline kernel, please comment as to why 
specifically you were unable to test it and add the following tags:
kernel-unable-to-test-upstream
kernel-unable-to-test-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's
Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your
understanding.

Title:
  task blocked for more than 120 seconds on server kernel

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Hi,

  this is about a ubuntu server version.
  The server consists mainly of fast HDDs and 2 external attached LTO-3 tape 
drives in a changer.
  It's purpose is to sync with other servers and then write ewverything onto 
both tape drives in parallel overnight.

  The following is our main problem:

  After the 5th 120s delay the following aborts the backup:

  This is with the SAS-LSI driver manually updated to version:
  # cat /sys/module/mptbase/version 
  4.24.00.00

  because I get lost connections to SATA drives with the driver supplied
  with the kernel (was with 2.6.32-23).

  This is a really serious bug for this server! It prevents it from doing 
backups.
  Please also read Bug 494476

  
  regards
  Lars
