While looking over the stack dump one of our engineers noticed the text "Not tainted 3.2.0-4-amd64 #1 Debian 3.2.41-2 ". Could this mean I'm looking over the wrong source? It would make me feel better as I'm not seeing anything as is. :)
Indeed, this is not 3.9.
The version of ixgbe in this Debian kernel has bql support backported,
but is otherwise the same as in 3.2.41. I assume that this bug has
been fixed some time between 3.2 and 3.9, but no-one requested that
the fix be included in stable branches. Please can you identify the
fix?
Ben.
