kern.log getting spammed with omap_hsmmc invalid cookie message

[eblu...@gmail.com]

Hello

I am using a BeagleBone Black for some remote data reading purposes.

Every once and a while the device space will completely fill up very rapidly and it seems like the culprit is kern.log (and syslog) getting spammed with the same message:

...

clearing the log file and rebooting the system fixes the issue at least for awhile but I would like to understand what is happening.

Does anybody know where this is coming from and what the best way to deal with it is?

some system info

ubuntu@BBB-00946:/var/log$ lsb_release -a

No LSB modules are available.

Distributor ID: Ubuntu

Description: Ubuntu 16.04.5 LTS

Release: 16.04

Codename: xenial

ubuntu@BBB-00946:/var/log$ uname -a

Linux BBB-00946 4.14.24-ti-r37 #1 SMP Thu Mar 8 00:36:50 UTC 2018 armv7l armv7l armv7l GNU/Linux

let me know if there is any other info I can provide.

thanks

I would really appreciate any guidance on this, It is happening across several systems and leading to some issues with data collection
