This bug should be a top priority because people will suffer from it as soon as
they reboot
their 14.04 LTS with an Intel Gigabit NIC and the "current" Utopic kernel
(3.16.0-48-generic).
I had the same problem with HP ProLiant DL380e Gen8 which an Intel I350 Gigabit
NIC
(Hewlett-Packard Company Ethernet 1Gb 4-port 366i Adapter)
It was hard to get a shell with 30-50% packets drop and igb driver resetting
ALL NICs...
"blind-typing" on the shell and wait 1-2 minutes to get the output... of dmesg
;-)
I updated the kernel of 14.04 LTS from Utopic to Vivid and everything is
working again.
Workaround is:
screen -S kernel
apt-get -y purge linux-{headers,image,image-extra}-3.16.0-48-generic
apt-get -y install linux-image-generic-lts-vivid linux-headers-generic-lts-vivid
reboot
Output of dmesg:
