Public bug reported: This is identical to the bug reported on the Debian kernel list, only I'm running 4.4.0, not 4.[89].0
After about 15 mintues, the cifsd daemon starts flooding echo requests on port 445 to the windows server causing a constant 1MB/s load (around 10,000 packets per second) that eventually leads to system instability that forces a reboot to correct. This is repeatable and as far as I know started about a week ago (possibly with the installation of 4.4.0-75). https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=856843 ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Confirmed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1686099 Title: connection flood to port 445 on mounting cifs volume under kernel To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1686099/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
