>Description:
When I try to download some (usually .tgz) files with default ftp client, the system hangs (and dies) all of a sudden. No messages, no kernel panic, nothing. All I can do from then on is to hard reset the system. This happened both with my custom kernel compile and the shipping 4.4-RELEASE kernel. On the other hand, not all files causes this crash. Some files are downloaded successfully with ftp. First I thought if a certain byte in the binary file to be downloaded was causing this (while entering thru the kernel) but I couldnt find it out. I've also noticed that the files I tried to get with ftp, were being created and left just so (with 0 bytes length).
>How-To-Repeat:
ftp downloading various .tgz files in BIN format. Some files download ok, but some hangs the system immediately after sending 'get xxx.tgz' command.
>Fix:
none
