I'd love to be wrong, but the address it's referring to is the correct address from the error / stack trace.

I honestly don't know anything about this. There's no search results for my error. ChatGPT and Claude and Grok all agreed one way or another, with various prompts.

Would be happy to have some help verifying any of this. I just know that disabling WAL mode, and not using Mac's ExFAT driver, both fixed the error reliably.

But is that the address being returned by mmap? Furthermore, what instruction is this crashing on? You should be able to look up the specific alignment requirements of that instruction to verify.

This means less than you'd think: they're all trained on a similar corpus, and Grok in particular is probably at least partially distilled from Claude. So they tend to come to similar conclusions given similar data.

I believe it's being returned by the FS driver, not mmap() necessarily. I think I knew what instruction it was when I was debugging it but don't remember right now. (I could probably dig through my LLM history and get it though.)

And yeah, I knew AI is useless, I try to avoid it, but when I'm way over my head it's better than nothing (it did lead me to the workaround that I mentioned in my previous comment).

If it was in the FS driver (w which runs in kernel / different process?) why would your process be dying?
