It eventually showed up again with mlx4, on 4.18.16 + fix and also on 4.19. I still do not have a useful packet capture.

It is running a torrent client serving up various linux distributions.


Have you also applied this fix ?

No. I've applied it now to 4.19 and will report back if anything shows up.

Just hit it on the simpler server; no VRF, no tunnels, no nat/conntrack. Only a basic stateless nftables ruleset and a vlan netdev (unlikely to be the one triggering this I guess; it has only v4 traffic).

I'm currently testing 4.19 with the recomended commit added, plus these to sort out some GRO issues (on a hunch, unsure if related): https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net.git/commit/?id=a8305bff685252e80b7c60f4f5e7dd2e63e38218 https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net.git/commit/?id=992cba7e276d438ac8b0a8c17b147b37c8c286f7 https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net.git/commit/?id=ece23711dd956cd5053c9cb03e9fe0668f9c8894

and I *think* it is behaving better now? it's not conclusive as it could take a while to trip in this environment but some of the test servers have not shown anything bad in almost 24h.

Sorry, s/some of the/none of the

I think it is fairly safe to say 4.19 + mlx4 + these 4 commits is OK. At least for my workload. Servers are now 51-61 hours in, no splats. I also added ntp pool traffic to one of them to make things a little more exciting.

Not sure what is needed for 4.18, I dont have the mental bandwidth to test that right now. Also no idea about the similar looking mlx5 splats reported elsewhere.
