Public bug reported:
It has been brought to my attention
By the attached test program pty, a pair of process repeats writing and
reading only '\n' to a master pseudoterminal device (/dev/ptmx) and a
slave pseudoterminal device (/dev/pts/N) each. When we carry out the
following 30 pairs 10,000 times, in a pair each process doesn't finish
reading.
$ pty 30
The following message will be usually indicated immediately.
#name copy num/sec usec/num

When a message wasn't indicated any more, we got the attached dump file.
A kernel was 3.13.0-45.74.
A system was Ubuntu 14.04 LTS.
The same problem occurred in case of 3.13.0-55.92 kernel and the following
