I can confirm the same NFS crashes on my Ubuntu Server 12.04 NAS with
the hardware RAID5 (3ware 9750-24i4e). I would rate this as a
catastrofic bug and surprised there were no activity on it for years. I
personally certainly do not enjoy repairing a 40-TB filesystem after
regular crashes.

How can this be medium?? It's been going on for 2 years now! I've still
got the same issues since upgrading to 12.04 from 10.04. All 10.04
ubuntu clients are the same, but the server is now 12.04. I have gig
clients as well as a couple of 54Mb wireless G bridge clients that also
lock up and die. Th
I also had the same problem while copying files into my raid using SMB.
The freeze would only happen while copying files INTO the raid, but
copying OUT of the raid was fine. Meaning the machine was freeze if
downloading, but uploading was fine.
After installing the realtek driver from the above,
I also had lock-ups with mine.

After 2-5GB had been transfered the system locked up. In Fedora it also did
reboot.

I had the same problem after updating my ubuntu server (8.04) to the newest.
Then the problems started.
It took me several months to find this posting.
I use samba on my server (software raid) and can confirm that the latest river
from realtek works. It unloads the one in the kernel (size 84022)
can confirm this problem with Natty (11.04) and Linux 2.6.38-11-generic.
seems it not only affects nfs - also videochat and other programs making
heavy use of the nic.
new driver is out:

I had the same problem with Ubuntu 11.04, Linux 2.6.38-11-generic and
the r8169 driver that shipped with it. Installing a driver from Realtek
resolved the problem.

Awesome. Actually, the latest driver release is just a few weeks old.
These drivers might not have worked prior to that in 10.10, but I
haven't investigated.

Before Gentoo I was using Ubuntu 10.04 on this system also and did not
see the issue there. I guess I have been
Can confirm the bug (not present in Ubuntu 10.04, not tested in 10.10
but present in 11.04) with a Realtek chip (see attached output from
lspci -v) and the workaround by Adam Bolte. But it seems like my system
is removing the realtek driver during restart and loads the buggy driver
again. At least
@Adam Bolte
Just did the same thing and can confirm that I no longer get crashes.
Can't believe I struggled with this for months and didn't think to look
at the realtek website for a new driver! You live and learn!
Thank you very much for the help.

started accessing it with NFS.
