The package has been published and the bug is being set to Fix Released

[David Andruczyk (david-andruczyk)]

3.13.0-51.84 crashes on every node I've used it on on VMware ESXi 5.5

See https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1450504

[Dave Gilbert (ubuntu-treblig)]

There's a report of this panicing (looks audit related):

See

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1450504

[David Andruczyk (david-andruczyk)]

  Disabling the audit rules that were in place eliminates the crash. More details in: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1450504

[David Andruczyk (david-andruczyk)]

Test scenario: Revert audit config to stock (as installed by vendor pkgs), boot is clean, system stable, add my rules (which have worked in all previous relases), restart audit daemon, system still working, restart Apache, BANG! kernel panic!

Can someone please re-open this bug and mark it as critical.

@David
I have a test kernel here:

Please test it and give me feedback.
Thanks,
