DRBD gets stuck in BrokenPipe state

Hello,

I'm pretty new with DRBD, so forgive me, If I ask something simple or well-known.
I've faced with the problem that drbd moves to "BrokenPipe" state and never gets out of it.
I've searched the web and found out, that the problem looks to be known, but I haven't found a proper solution for 0.7.x series, have I been missing something, that really exists?
The exact version of code is

# cat /proc/drbd version: 0.7.21 (api:79/proto:74)

Here the logs

ncs_pseudo_drbd.out log:

		--- Here pdrbd daemon reboot the system because drbd got stuck in BrokenPipe state (as shown in ncs_pseudo_drbd.out logs)

So, is the problem known and the fix exists or it's something new? Could you suggest the best place to look at in the sources?

Thank you,
Yuri

as recently also posted on drbd-user:
drbd 0.7 is seriously end-of-life.
we won't even bother to track down issues in the 0.7 code base.

unless you are a well paying existing customer ;)
and even then we'd persuade you to upgrade.

sorry, no. drbd 0.7 is dead.
you may try using the latest 0.7, but there are probably a number of bugs and race conditions left in the 0.7 code base, that will become more and more likely exposed on newer hardware.
