Hi everyone, I'm new to the macOS world, and recently I've been getting a kernel panic which basically happens when I let my Macbook sleep for more than 5-6 hours. This is the message that I keep getting :

*** Panic Report ***
panic(cpu 0 caller 0xffffff7f9270f341): "Failed to quiesce supporting devices\n"@/BuildRoot/Library/Caches/com.apple.xbs/Sources/AppleACPIPlatform/AppleACPIPlatform-281.30.2/AppleACPIPlatformPower.cpp:1985

Does anyone know what this means and what's causing this problem ? I hope it's not hardware-related but I can't be sure. Thanks !
 
Are you on the latest build of High Sierra and whats your specific MacBook model? I had a lot of trouble with kernel panics when I first got my latest MacBook but disappeared after a few builds of were released with new drivers.

Another tip is make sure no devices are connected to your machine when it goes to sleep, i.e. external hard drives or anything else USB connected and see if you get the same problem.

I'm on High Sierra 10.13.3, so the latest build ! I don't have any connected device when I let my macbook sleep..
 
It looks like all Apple stuff. I’d download and run the latest combo updater. Since 10.13.4 is expected tomorrow, I would wait for it and run that updater.
