Hi Will, Have you received the log files? And is there someone looking at this issue now ? This issue happened on Qcom Scorpoin CPUs, And it just happened in our stability test occasionally . If you have some patch for this issue, I can do the test for it . Thanks for your help very much ! -----Original Message----- From: Wang, Yalin Sent: Wednesday, May 29, 2013 5:51 PM To: 'Will Deacon'; richard -rw- weinberger Cc: linux-arch@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx; linux-kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx; linux-arm-kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: RE: A bug about system call on ARM Hi This is kernel.log and the stack which is recovered by Trace32 tools.
