Title: debugging kernel OOPS

Hi,

 

The first column is the offset of the code from the begining of the function.

 

The second column is the actual binary instruction present. It is followed by corresponding assembly instructions.

 

Thanks,

 

Rajat

Hi,

  I am reading the following article
http://kerneltrap.org/Linux/Further_Oops_Insights and the below
snippet is from there. My question is what are the values
in first two columns.
................
...............
  22:   31 c9                   xor    %ecx,%ecx
  24:   89 c3                   mov    %eax,%ebx
  26:   8b 42 08                mov    0x8(%edx),%eax
  29:   89 f2                   mov    %esi,%edx
  2b:*  89 43 04                mov    %eax,0x4(%ebx)     <-- trapping
instruction
  2e:   89 d8                   mov    %ebx,%eax
  30:   c7 04 24 0e 00 00 00    movl   [mid=567425]xe,(%esp)
  37:   e8 85 f0 ff ff          call   0xfffff0c1
............

Sorry if the question is too simple, but this is my first time with assembly .
