Hello,
I have 6 identical physical machines in one cluster with Debian 6.0
onboard . Initially they were used to run Cassandra nodes, but these
nodes started to go down randomly after several hours of work, with hung
up connections in CLOSE_WAIT state. Typically, CLOSE_WAIT state is
indicator of incorrect app behavior, but I've reproduced similar
symptoms with netperf CRR test even with host as localhost:
'netperf -H localhost -t TCP_CRR -l -5' results in
'TCP Connect/Request/Response TEST from 0.0.0.0 (0.0.0.0) port 0 AF_INET
to localhost (127.0.0.1) port 0 AF_INET : demo
send_tcp_conn_rr: data recv error: Connection reset by peer'
And connections connection hang up in CLOSE_WAIT state with strange 1
byte in Recv-Q:
'tcp 1 0 127.0.0.1:12865 127.0.0.1:39664 CLOSE_WAIT'
Though, if I set test duration in seconds (e.g. -l 5) it works
correctly, and TCP_RR works correctly all the time.
Also, I've made tcpdump of conversation between two nodes in similar
TCP_CRR test and it also looks strange. Nodes correctly open connection
'client' send its data and then 'server' side just resets connection.
'netstat -s' for 40 minutes of uptime(reboot, test, and writing this
message) shows suspicious '6 TCP data loss events' and '11
connections reset due to early user close':

I've already upgraded 'ixgbe' driver upto the latest 3.9-NAPI, but
problem still persists. And I even cannot find out it's source.
