I know for a fact that it is software related because it happened last week and I have several sets of good hardware and I have segregated builds (separate LTIB directories) of the same platform with product specific mods. A simple clean won't fix the problem. I literally have to distclean to fix it. After that, I rebuild a perfect rootfs/kernel. The question I guess is what's the difference between clean and distclean in terms of re-generation of object modules. That leads to another question, are any of the generated binaries outside of the LTIB root level directory except for the toolchain? I will try the trick you mentioned. Perhaps I can diff out the cause.

Hi Chris, Do you mean on your target? if so it could be a hardware problem. Alternatively it means you're trying to access an illegal address (impossible address) rather than a legal address that has nothing mapped to it. One idea to confirm this is to get a rootfs running properly and then duplicate it, e.g.: $ sudo cp -a rootfs rootfs.good And then carry on working. When the errors start happening, try switching to the good snapshot to see if the error occurs (hardware) or whether it's related to rootfs changes.
