Frequent Kernel DCP Panics IOMFB_DRIVER

By far the easiest way to cause poor performance, instability, overheating and crashing is to install ANY third-party speeder-uppers, Cleaners, Optimizers, or Virus scanners. or a VPN that you installed yourself.

The idea that a third party, with no special knowledge of the inner workings of MacOS, can somehow find a simple way to protect your computer — that is not already being done by MacOS itself — suggests that the MacOS developers are somehow "holding out on you". That is absurd.

You should remove any and all (other than Apple built-in) virus scanners, speeder uppers, optimizers, cleaners, App deleters or VPN packages you installed yourself, or anything of that ilk.

Third-party file Sync-ers such as DropBox, BackBlaze, OneDrive, or GoogleDrive can ruin performance, but are not inherently dangerous.

you have WAY too much stuff on that list installed to debug properly. At this juncture, the problem is "too much intrusive junk is installed."

Back in Oct./Nov. 2021 there were lots of reports of a similar type of Kernel Panic involving HDR & streaming videos which was later patched by Apple in macOS 12.1. From a bit of quick searching & reading it seems like your Kernel Panic is probably related to the GPU and/or Display. I would suggest disconnecting the external display to see if these Kernel Panics stop. If your external display supports another type of connection other than HDMI, maybe try out the other video input on the Display to see if it makes any difference, or maybe a different brand of HDMI cable...make sure to get one which supports the latest HDMI version/standard (not sure what that is).

If disconnecting the external display does not prevent the Kernel Panics, then try disconnecting the USB-C Dock, just in case this dock or one of the connected peripherals is causing the problem (especially if the dock has a video port or one of the devices is video related).

DCP Panic --- Display CoProcessor Panic

IOMFB --- I/O Mobile Frame Buffer which is a kernel extension for managing the screen framebuffer

Just for reference, here are a couple of forum posts which provided some of this information:

You can also try running the Apple Diagnostics to see if any hardware issues are detected.

Please follow up in a few weeks if this stopped your Kernel Panics. It will help us assist other people on these forums, plus anyone reading your thread will also be able to know if this was a true long term fix.

Thanks for the immediate update. Fingers crossed that this is a final solution.
