CIFS stopped working/is unstable with kernel update to 5.15.0-102.112
Hi,
updated some Ubuntu 22.04 systems to lastest available state this morning, which caused CIFS mounts (from various fileservers) to stop working. Kernel was updated to version 5.15.0-102-generic.
I can mount the shares without problems (mount -t cifs), but then, df for example tells me: df: /mnt: Resource temporarily unavailable.
I'm able to list and browse all the files, but accessing them (even readonly) is very unstable. Sometimes it works and sometimes it just gives me i/o errors.
Switching back to 5.15.0-101-generic or 5.15.0-100-generic solves the problem and everything works again as expected.
Seems like some bug has been implemented in 5.15.0-
To reproduce the problem, I started a while loop on one server to write to some file on a specific mounted CIFS share and read it from another one
root@<hostname1>:~# while true; do echo "$(date) hallo" >> /mnt/hallo.txt; sleep 1 ; done
-bash: /mnt/hallo.txt: Input/output error
-bash: /mnt/hallo.txt: Input/output error
^C
root@<hostname2>:~$ tail -f /mnt/hallo.txt

While doing this, both servers tell me, the resource is unavailable
root@<hostname1>:~# df -h /mnt
df: /mnt: Resource temporarily unavailable
root@<hostname2>:~$ df -h /mnt
df: /mnt: Resource temporarily unavailable
