Just upgraded to 10.14.2 and my iMac won't stay up for more than a few minutes. I've seen some chatter around about crashing on sleep, but I've disabled sleep and the crashes still happen. I've only seen the crash once myself (it's usually at the FV login screen when I come back to it).
There are many /Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports/*.shutdownStall
files. I ran spindump -i
on them, but didn't see anything useful.
Here is the output of log show --predicate 'eventMessage contains "Previous shutdown cause"'

Googling around, it looks like -128
shutdown code is unknown
(maybe memory). I'm mainly posting this before I go to all the trouble of assuming it's bad memory or something and not a bug in Mojave.

This problem was addressed by upgrading the OS. I'm at 10.14.5 now and no longer have these problems.
