Hi Joe,

We verified the test kernel for Trusty from comment #8, however it does not seem to be resolving the issue, as we ran into a different issue.

With the test kernel 3.13.0-105.152~lp1636656_amd64 the VM is loosing network connectivity if we corrupt the packages and transfer a file.
This behavior is not seen in all the other kernels already tested, so it seems to be specific to be backport to 3.13 - dependency patches maybe?

Using the latest kernel for Trusty - 3.13.0-105-generic - we do *not* observe the netvsc messages if we corrupt the packages.
I will have to check this internally if the given bug here might have been introduced in a later kernel, will reply once we clarify the situation for Trusty.

Last question would be that in order to include the netvsc patch in 3.13, did you have to backport other patches? If so, can you please provide us with the list of them, that might help to understand the behavior.

Thank you!
