Hi, speaking for EOS models: indeed the original manufacturer's OS does not handle these cases very different. They pick up the context (including LR, the failing instruction), print an error message and kill the failing task. So at least the original OS does not use MPU systematically, like it would be necessary for some kind of swapping etc. BR, Georg
