Jetson freezes up and emits CPU stack & call trace

Here I have one set of logs with a small stack trace and some details about the CPU/registers.

I have 9 devices, all the same, that’s the only one that does that. Do I need to replace it?

Thank you.

We didn’t see such error recently. I would like to say maybe a hardware issue.

Could you share the detail of software version ,if you are using custom board, and how to trigger this issue?

Is there any pattern or method that can definitely hit this? If not, maybe RMA this module.

I always had problems with that specific unit, although at first it seemed to only be issues with the network. I’ve not really see patterns I could talk about or how it gets triggered. Today it rebooted on its own… that was the first time I saw that. It also once failed to auto-login which is important for our software to get started (Since we use X11).

Since the other units works as expected with the same software version on all of them, I would imagine that it’s not that relevant?

Yes, it sounds no relevant. Please try to RMA that problematic module first.

Hi Wayne, I have the board removed from our system and ready for shipping. How do I obtain an RMA from NVidia? I purchased the boards directly from your Store and I just don’t see a place to get such at the moment. If you have a direct link to the RMA form or whatever you have, it would be great.

Thank you.

Ah, I found this form here:

https://store.nvidia.com/DRHM/store#bottomForm

Hopefully that’s the right one. :-)
