Title:
  Soft Lock Ups in NFS Write in Linux Kernel

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  There was a code change in the NFS write code that went into the 6.11
  Kernel mainline. This bug was reported:
  https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=219508

  The symptoms of this are that when there are a lot of writes to a
  mounted NFS share, especially through a VM or Docker, a soft lockup
  will occur. Based on the reverted commit this is because the
  assumptions made in the newer write code didn't account for a failed
  or short write. Ultimately this would cause an infinite loop where the
  NFS write never could release.

  The offending commit was here:
  
https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/b571cfcb9dcac187c6d967987792d37cb0688610#diff-
  fc1b4de72479f94c3f3a9d6f626078f5392d88be93cfce08bb32883ac7a91a97L169

  This was recently reverted:
  
https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/66f9dac9077c9c063552e465212abeb8f97d28a7

  This has been applied to the latest mainline 6.11.11 patch as well.
  This reversion was not included in the recent kernel release.

  Description:  Ubuntu 24.10
  Release:      24.10
