Thanks @moonman,

I think I started from that - but I've downloaded it anyway.

Problem I had is jumping from a 5.x.x kernel to 7.x.x is a big jump - the patches weren't applying, I checked most an not needed on the nsa325 box. I'll cross check.

Main problem is 7.x.x. is a big jump - oldconfig (where I started) is a a huge number of changes. So its changing a lot ...

Have too approaches for the bug:
[list]
Take the error message - work out what is causing in, then disable that code, hopefully through configure
Bisect the kernel versions and see where the error arose. Thas a bit painful - currently only doing compiles on the nsa325 box itself, my cross compiler isn't playing game right now ..

Yeah there would be a lot of changes, but defaults are usually sane.

I remember I used to compile on GoFlex Home as well then I used armv5 chroot on more powerful armv7 boards as well to compile faster.

Ah this seems a clue kworker/u4:1-btrfs-endio-meta - and as it was kworker that crashed - must be something in btrfs. Alas I use btrfs for my back up - so I need it. Still gives me something to focus on.

Yes good Idea - my beagle farm should be able to compile things for the the nsa325 - I think its something like twice as powerful ...

And digging more deeply - There are bugs showing up in many running process,

bash
systemd-journal
sh
fixdep
gcc
sudo
dmesg
systemd-udevd

So its something fundamental. Bug is always when calling smp_processor_id()

I may reach out to the kernel guys ...
