Running the floodlight tests without utah does not cause this issue and using utah to run some other tests does not cause this issue either. - This is possibly a kernel issue but since I am not entirely sure, the - bug is reported against utah. Please reassign it to the kernel team with - more information if possible. + Noticed a similar bug 1021471, but this one is occurring in KVM using + libvirt. The issue is only with the saucy kernel version, 3.9.0-1 and does not occur with 3.9.0-0. The tests were tried with saucy server VMs on precise as well as saucy hosts and the results is the same. Steps to reproduce: 1. Install a default saucy server on a vm (either manually or preseeded default installation) with either i386 or amd64 image using KVM, libvirt - 2. Install utah client on the VM - (http://utah.readthedocs.org/en/latest/introduction.html#how-to-start-running-tests contains the information) + 2. Do the following to install utah inside the VM + sudo apt-add-repository -y ppa:utah/stable + sudo apt-get update + sudo apt-get install utah 3. Run the floodlight tests using sudo utah -r lp:ubuntu-test-cases/server/runlists/floodlight.run 4. Now "kernel: [ 358.452029] unregister_netdevice: waiting for lo to become free. Usage count = 2" will be continuously reported Install and boot time syslogs are attached. The impacted jobs are, https://jenkins.qa.ubuntu.com/view/Saucy/view/Smoke%20Testing/job/saucy-server-amd64-smoke-floodlight/15/ - and + and https://jenkins.qa.ubuntu.com/view/Saucy/view/Smoke%20Testing/job/saucy-server-i386-smoke-floodlight/13/
