Kallsyms

Lines like :
ip_finish_output+0x0/0x360

Sounds a bit ambiguous for me, they are just parameters ?

Thanks,
Pietro

plat_irq_dispatch+0x224/0x284, in this 0x224 is offset in the function plat_irq_dispatch and 0x284 is the length/size of the function (total instructions).

Hello at all,

I am started with kallsyms in order to debug my kernel deadlock and I don't understand at all the output, that are some lines of the calltrace:

What do mean the couple of addresses like 0x224/0x284 ?
I used to decode address by hands and what I expected is a single offset inside the function, but there I can see two address.
Many thanks for your help, I am struggling and I am really frustrated!:-(
Pietro.
