I built a Wily test kernel with those three patches. The patches also required three prerequisite commits, so the test kernel has the following six commits:
4246a0b6 block: add a bi_error field to struct bio 54efd50b block: make generic_make_request handle arbitrarily sized bios 03100aad block: Replace SG_GAPS with new queue limits mask 8cf308e storvsc: Don't set the SRB_FLAGS_QUEUE_ACTION_ENABLE flag 81988a0 storvsc: get rid of bounce buffer 3209f9d scsi: storvsc: Fix a bug in the handling of SRB status flags The test kernel can be downloaded from: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~jsalisbury/lp1470250/ I'll see if I can still reproduce the bug with this kernel. I put it up for download, in case you want to test it as well, Dexuan. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1470250 Title: [Hyper-V] Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS Generation 2 SCSI Errors on VSS Based Backups Status in linux package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in linux source package in Trusty: In Progress Status in linux source package in Vivid: In Progress Status in linux source package in Wily: In Progress Bug description: Customers have reported running various versions of Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS on Generation 2 Hyper-V Hosts. On a random Basis, the file system will be mounted Read-Only due to a "disk error" (which really isn't the case here). As a result, they must reboot the Ubuntu guest to get the file system to mount RW again.

This relates to the VSS "Windows Server Backup" process that kicks off at midnight on the host and finishes an hour and half later. Yes, we do have hv_vss_daemon and hv_kvp_daemon running for the correct kernel version we have. We're currently running kernel version 3.13.0-49-generic #83 on one system and 3.16.0-34-generic #37 on the other. -- We see the same errors on both. As a result, we've been hesitant to drop any more ubuntu guests on our 2012R2 hyper-v system because of this. We can stop the backup process and all is good, but we need nightly backups to image all of our VM's. All the windows guests have no issues of course. We also have some CentOS based guests running without issues from what we've seen.
