System having LACP bonded interfaces and vlan over the bond interface goes in hard lockup state in RHEL6.5.

Solution Unverified - Updated -

Issue

  • We've been doing some testing here with netem and packet corruption and I believe we may have stumbled on an igb or bonding bug that leads to a nasty system lockup on the latest RHEL release.
  • We have a reproducible test case, but I'm looking for pointers on what I can collect to help deconstruct and hopefully solve the issue.

Environment

  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 6.5
  • LACP bonding + vlan over the bond interface
  • Intel igb based NICs
