Are you sure? There are basic explanations about the info we need. For instance:

"- The r02 register is the "return pointer" - it indicates the calling function
- The IAOQ contents specify the address of the instruction where the
fault occured."

Of course they are undecoded, that's why you need to be able to
objdump the kernel.

After HPMC, RS is ok. Remember to always ser clearpim after collecting the info.

PIM will contain relevant (though undecoded) information, so that's
already good to have.
