Mac kernel panic when wake from sleep

Hello,


I just encountered this kernel panic on my MacBook Air, which is over five years old at this point. The computer is due for replacement in the next few months. The panic occurred while my computer is in sleep and reads as follows:


{"roots_installed":0,"caused_by":"bridgeos","os_version":"Bridge OS 9.4 (22P4248)","macos_system_state":"unknown","incident_id":"8FADB49B-4C5D-40B8-A65F-E1DDA1F6A61C","bug_type":"210","bridgeos_roots_installed":0,"timestamp":"2025-04-19 21:02:06.00 +0000"}

{

"build" : "Bridge OS 9.4 (22P4248)",

"product" : "iBridge2,12",

"socId" : "8012",

"socRevision" : "10",

"incident" : "8FADB49B-4C5D-40B8-A65F-E1DDA1F6A61C",

"crashReporterKey" : "c0dec0dec0dec0dec0dec0dec0dec0dec0de0001",

"kernel" : "Darwin Kernel Version 24.4.0: Fri Mar 14 18:21:55 PDT 2025; root:xnu-11417.101.14~1\/RELEASE_ARM64_T8010",

"date" : "2025-04-19 21:02:06.13 +0000",

"panicString" : "Unexpected SoC (system) watchdog reset occurred",

"panicFlags" : "0x0",

"codeSigningMonitor" : 0,

"bug_type" : "210",

"foregroundAppHash" : "0",

"macOSPanicString" : "not yet set",

"binaryImages" : [],

"notes" : ["missing stackshot buffer or size"]

}


the computer had an update installed to macos sonoma 14.7.5. i wonder if this update may have caused it. I have already reset my sleep settings to reduce the likelihood of a panic occurring when my computer wakes up from sleep. But this is a problem that might not be able to be fixed.


MacBook Air 13″, macOS 14.7

Norton Lifelock ?


It was formerly known as Symantec and then Gen Digital after it was sold


Below are the Official Uninstallation step provided by the Developer


Though, I am not really sure this will remove All the Bits and Pieces


If going this route, you may need another application to find some of the left-over elements of this application

Norton used the known as Step-by-step guide to uninstalling Norton LifeLock (Mac):

  1. Open Finder: Click the Finder icon in the Dock.
  2. Go to Applications: In the Finder sidebar, click "Applications."
  3. Locate Norton LifeLock: Find the Norton LifeLock application (or the specific Norton product you want to remove) in the Applications folder.
  4. Drag to Trash: Drag the Norton LifeLock application icon to the Trash.
  5. Empty Trash: Right-click the Trash icon and select "Empty Trash."
  6. Restart your computer: Once the uninstallation is complete, restart your computer to ensure all files are removed.

By the way I have completed an etrecheck report and it said that the computer is suffering from poor performance and has had a history of minor kernel panics (mostly related to sleep wake failure in EFI) since the serious event I had in January-February 2023. I have done SMC and NVRAM resets every time this happened and I have also done some diagnostics as a precautionary measure each time a panic occurs.


Since my computer is over 5 years old at this point, I am planning to decommission the mac over the next few months. My previous MacBook air i had before that lasted around 6 and 1/3 years before it started suffering some issues that made the computer slower than expected, causing it to be decommissioned in November 2019.

Uninstall "Norton".


Follow its uninstallation instructions, assuming you can find them, and that they actually work. "Norton" has proven itself to be difficult to uninstall, which may require that you completely erase that Mac and reconfigure it from the ground up.


Rule 1 of Macs is don't install junk.

The situation regarding this bug type 210 indicates that the computer's firmware may have started to become corrupted. While the computer is still running normally at this time and I have not experienced any unexpected shutdowns in the past week, I am closely monitoring this situation over the next few months as there is a chance that the firmware may become completely corrupted at some point. The only way for me to permanently resolve this issue would be to restore the mac's firmware to factory settings in DFU mode.
