Thanks!  Sounds good

Also: I take back the deterministic part. The other roach started having the problem too, and it might have something to do with read lengths. More to follow (eventually)

Hi Ryan.  We had this problem, which appeared to be a "lockup".  I think
that Glenn and some others corresponded about it, and it was due to trying
to read/write bytes instead of words over the opb bus with a buggy kernel
or a buggy library.

You might search through the mailing list for Glenn's name in about
November of last year.

Hey all,

I'm trying to test out a new bit file (it uses the "pcore" feature and
has 4 black boxes under the hood for what it's worth). *On one ROACH2 it
works just fine* (in the context of this problem).

On the other one, for ~1/5 of the registers, upon reading that register
the ROACH2 stops responding to all katcp commands.  From dmesg, it looks
like tcpborphserver is crashing.  It appears that the registers which
kill it are deterministic across programmings. It also looks like the
registers which fail are all shared_brams, but there is nothing
exceptional about the ones which fail, imho

Attached are the results of a python script on the two roaches, and a
dmesg output of the failed board.  In addition, pictures of the
configuration for both roaches.

Anyone seen this before?
