On one setup (using a Cisco 10G switch), we're seeing a failure rate of about 20%. Manually reloading the driver modules - or rebooting - is required to recover. A fix is now available in linux-next that greatly reduces (though it doesn't 100% eliminate) the frequency of occurrences (2% vs. 20%, in my case). Investigation continues to identify a resolution for the remaining cases. [Test Case] Connect Cavium ThunderX systems to a known bad switch, and put them in a reboot loop. In my test, I use the maas cli to release/acquire/deploy systems, and wait for a node to enter the deployment failure state. [Regression Risk] The fix is upstream, and internal to a specific driver only used on Cavium ThunderX systems.
