Package: ifenslave-2.6
Version: 2.6

One of my servers running Jessie hung on restart today and has been continuing to do so; rebooting now requires a hard reset be invoked over IPMI. When shutting down the last message displayed on the console was "deconfiguring network interfaces".

After doing some digging, the part of the init script that was failing was the segment that ran `ifdown -a --exclude lo`; if I run this manually I can trigger the same behaviour. After 120s the system console reports hung tasks belonging to kworker and ifenslave.

Corresponding to these are faults/call traces reported in dmesg also belonging to ifenslave. Images of both are available on request (grabbed these from the BMC as and when I saw them), will try to extract them as text on the next available reboot slot.

This behaviour only became apparent after the last round of updates went in - was working/rebooting perfectly fine a week ago. Hardware is an ASRock E3C224D2I with two Intel i210 NICs (igb driver). /etc/network/interfaces is as follows:

auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

# The primary network interface
auto bond0
iface bond0 inet static
        address 192.168.1.128
        netmask 255.255.255.0
        network 192.168.1.0
        broadcast 192.168.1.255
        gateway 192.168.1.1
        slaves eth0 eth1
        bond_mode active-backup
        bond_miimon 250
        bond_downdelay 250
        bond_updelay 250

ifconfig from the running system as follows:

Please let me know if there are any other investigations I can carry out to verify the cause. I don't know if it's related but the system only has one NIC plugged in at present.
