I gave up on this ever being fixed since it's existed since 2.6 and
went and bought some Realtek ethernet cards, no problems since. But, you
can work around this bug by turning hardware offloading off if efficiency
isn't an issue.
I am no longer using E1000 based cards.

I gave up any hope it ever would be fixed, bought some NIC cards with a
different chipset, and moved on.

I had a better fix, after becoming convinced Canonical was not going to
fix the drivers in my lifetime, I went and bought some non-Intel NICs.

4.14.0 final crashed hard after running 17 hours. Not only was the
ethernet not-responsive, neither was the console, not even the magic
sys-req key. I had to power cycle the machine to get it unhung. Then
I booted 4.14.0rc1 and it immediately exploded however I had set a 20 second
time out and
4.14 has the problem. Do I need to try the 4.15rc0 kernel also since
4.14 isn't well?

I booted the most problematic machine, that's the i7-6850k machine,
probably because it has the most traffic, on the 4.14.0 kernel, so far so
good.

I did not see this behavior with 4.13.0 and did with 4.15.0.

Just to make sure you got the latest, the 4.17.x kernel did not work well
enoguh to leave it running, it broke kernel-nfs-server among other things.
I am pressenting running 4.15.0-21 and with this kernel I would still
get these hangs except that I discovered disabling certain hardware
This kernel did make it so I could not reproduce it on demand using
ethtool -G however it broke so many other things I could not leave it running
to see if it fixed spontaneous hangs.
Strangely it broke nfs-kernel-server on the i7-6850k machine but not the
i7-6700k machine. I did much
Looks like you nailed it. Three machines running haven't barfed in over
11 hours, used to several times an hour.

There is a 4.50.0-20.21 in Proposed, is this the correct kernel?

Yes though I will need to boot at night when usage is low. Can you tell
me what the kernel version is so I an be sure to get the correct kernel?
