Hello~
I think this might be duplicate issue but, I have not resolved for long time.
So, please understand this post generously.
First, I should explain my history.

1) I worked on the scheduler(credit scheduler) and I had a kernel panic by my modification.
2) I tried to get any information for debugging so that, I used serial console and could gain the serial logs like following:

I want to know where I should start debugging from.
However, although I'm using serial console, I could get not enough clues only from the kernel log:
1) I could figure out what line and file caused the panic by its call trace, but it is too rough so it does not help me.
2) What linear address brings about this situation; 'Faulting linear address', but it is just an address and not recognizable something that human cannot read.

I think, literally, the 'Faulting linear address' is key point because I heard that it represents bad address that I should never access.
With the pointer(bad address), is there any way to figure out its real data or more accurate line in C source code?
If you have any other approach that can be used in some cases like this, could you please give me the guide?

I hope your help.
Thank you!
