"kernel:unregister_netdevice: waiting for lo to become free. Usage count = 3"

 

This message haunts my dreams. Whenever I ssh into my server, or go into the console through the webui, this message pops up every few seconds. It doesn't prevent me from doing anything really, but its extremely annoying and makes it impossible to do anything effectively through the terminal.

 

I have tried stopping all docker containers, stopping the docker service, and even stopping my array but the message does not stop.

 

I am not running any VMs, only docker containers.

 

I am currently using the NVIDIA build of 6.8.3.

 

I have attached my diagnostics file and would appreciate any support

Did you try booting in safe mode?

For me this will happen when I stop/restart a torrent container (after heavy torrenting).

This is harmless though except the kernel is spamming every 10s in syslog and SSH terminal.

 

A temporally workaround is to restart your unraid server, keep in mind that this will definitely be an uncleaned shutdown.
