Hi,
I am new at kernel programming. I have written a driver for a custom device, running on arm board. It works well (for last few months).
I happen to look at kernel logs and I seen,

[231250.894334] ------------[ cut here ]------------

[231250.975755] ---[ end trace 9f9c2187c0bee21b ]---

The device is still working after this. No issues in operation. I am just sceptical about analyzing this issue? Do I need to check more? If yes how? with this trace?

Thanks,
Sagar
