Hello Thomas !
This may or may not apply to your case. Is this board still the one that has the Marvell Discovery ethernet device? If yes, Marvell Discovery has its SRAM located at 0xfe000000. So, make a check in the ethernet driver or other board specific sources and see if there is any access to this SRAM location.
Thanks Manish Lachwani

Hello,
I've modified the Linux MIPS CVS kernel to support my board. Modification include platform initialization, serial driver and ethernet driver.
When I leave the system alone for a while, it crashes with the error seen in the attached file. It crashes with a Bus error, but I don't know where the bus error occurs. epc and ra respectively points to do_be() and handle_dbe_int(), but I don't get any backtrace, because stack address 0xfe040000 is already the end of the end stack ;(
How can I know to what process 0xfe040000 stack address correspond ? How can I have more information on what happened ?
I suspect it's a bug in my serial driver, because of the strange characters displayed before "us error", but I'm not sure. I just need advices to be able to debug this problem.
Thanks for your help,
Thomas
