That's triggered by a BRK instruction (software breakpoint), we use it like UD2
on x86.

That lump of hex here means "this was triggered by a BRK #1000" instruction.

That immediate (0x3e8 / 1000) is what GCC/Clang use for __builtin_trap(), which
is generated for a bunch of reasons, usually a sanitizer like UBSAN, or options
to trap on runtime issues.

Naresh, where can I find the config used for this run? I can try to reproduce
this and investigate.

Thanks,
Mark.
