Random MacBook Pro 14 m3 kernel panic

my macbook 14 m3 pro suddenly start to have kernel panic.

the first had gave this log:


2024-03-30 03:04:40 Kernel Panic

        Details:

            panic(cpu 0 caller 0xfffffe002d6bd15c): DCP PANIC - apt firmware: piod

            ilbox(75)

            Panicked task 0xfffffe24d4385dc8: 0 pages, 575 threads: pid 0: kernel_

            task

after a restore from a backup I had this second kernel panic:


2024-03-30 11:40:23 Kernel Panic Details: panic(cpu 0 caller 0xfffffe001722b460): "SEP ROM boot panic. 0x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anicBuffer.cpp:71 Panicked task 0xfffffe24cd3b0fd8: 0 pages, 499 threads: pid 0: kernel_ task

The first Kernel Panic is referencing a GPU issue of some sort since DCP is Display Co-Processor.


The second panic is referencing the Secure Enclave Processor (SEP). It is hard to say if the latter is a hardware related issue, or just the laptop having compatibility issues between the backup & the system....the secure enclave chip is quirky. If the new installed of the OS resets the chip & you pull in a backup, maybe the two are out of sync due to ownership issues.


If the second panic is not due to some quirk or compatibility issue, then most likely you have a hardware issue of some sort. Make sure to disconnect all external devices in case one of them is causing a problem. If the panics occur while using an app that does video chats, then maybe that is the cause.


Are you by any chance running any anti-virus apps, cleaning/optimizer apps, or third party security software? These types of apps are known to cause all sorts of problems....including Kernel Panics.


Try running the Apple Diagnostics to see if any hardware issues are detected. Unfortunately the diagnostics rarely detect hardware issues.

the first kernel panic occurred after I've uninstalled adobe illustrator and manually deleted many adobe leftover files..before that, I didn't had any issue. i restored from Time Machine after that, it happened while I was working on affinity designer 2.

I'm not running any anti-virus apps, cleaning/optimizer apps, or third party security software.

the apple diagnostics didn't detected any hardware issues.

at this moment the machine is working as it should since yesterday morning.
