Hi,

Let’s assume WARNING message says something like:


[    0.000000] Call Trace:

Few symbols in the above mentioned call trace are prefixed with “?”
(for e.g.  ?early_idt_handlers\? set_init_arg\?
acpi_tb_acquire_table), what does it mean?
Does it needs to be considered while debugging the kernel module?



Call Trace shows “function+0xoffset/0xlength”. Does the
0xoffset/0xlength changes if the module is built with –g option and
without –g option?


Thanks in Advance,

Thanks,

Hi...

Not sure about the "?".

But about the offset/length, I think it will differ, but mostly because -g implies turning off certain optimization options.
