Dear all,

we are facing a problem the UDP Stack in our embedded device based on a LPC3250.

We discovered the bug the first place in the 2.6.39.2 kernel provided by lpc[0].
We tried different newer versions of the kernel until 3.4.113 and the error still occurs.
Newer versions of the kernel have not been tested (yet).

We have a simple program that listens on a multicast address and uses select to query the socket.
We read the data, validate it and process it further (put it into some shared memory via shm_open).
The bandwidth of the traffic is approximately 100Mbit/s.

We tried to debug the error with gdb and printfs, but all the pointer in the relevant section looked sane and a printf of the values did not trigger a panic.
The bug occurs after approximately 15 minutes under high network load, but cannot be triggered reliably.

We found two relevant topics [1][2], but the first one didn't helped and the second one has no answer, but looks promising.

Because this bug affects a lot of our products, we want to develop an intermediate patch, but we need some help to locate the error.
In the long term we want to migrate to a newer kernel, but at the moment we need this fix for our customers.

Can anybody help us to spot out the error so that we can develop a patch for this problem?
Perhaps this is a known issue and a solution is already available.
