We mostly run SSH with benchmarks using NFS, it can probably be
triggered by using only SSH with the following loop:

# while : ; do ssh arm-card date; done
Mattis,

What sort of time does it take for you to see a problem?

I've been running the above for nearly two days on 3.16.0 on a board
with fec interrupts routed through gpio_6 and haven't seen a hint of
a problem.
Thanks for testing.

Which mx6 board have you used on this test?
It's currently pointed at a RIoTboard (atheros phy) but I'm happy to 
try it against both a Sabre-Lite and a Wandboard B1, all running the 
same kernel binary, as well. 

I'm interested enough in why different people get different results 
with this that I'll put some time towards testing to try to help 
narrow down the cause.
two and a half days of running this against both a sabre-lite and a 
wandboard quad B1 and I still have no reason to think there's any 
sort of a problem.

Up to now, my testing has been done with my own config, I'll now
repeat the whole thing using the config Mattis posted to see if 
I can reproduce it that way.

Suggestions on a better / easier / quicker way to reproduce it are 
welcome.
So I wasn't able to use Mattis exact configuration as I couldn't 
get it to boot properly on anything. 

I made changes enough to enable mmc/sata and to disable the 
compiled in kernel command line and appended devicetree and initrd.
Even then it still won't boot on my WBQUAD. 
It is running on Sabre-Lite and RIoTboard though, so useful enough 
to test against the SL in a similar manner to Mattis tests with SL.

I've had the test running against both for approx one day and again 
no sign of any problems. I'm happy to leave this running, but at 
this stage I'm not expecting I'll see any problems even if I leave 
it running for a week.
