No. faddr and from->st_value are offsets from the start of the section. They are not pointers. %p does not make sense. > > > > > if (mismatch->mismatch == EXTABLE_TO_NON_TEXT) { > > if (match(tosec, mismatch->bad_tosec)) > > -- > > 2.39.2 > > > > > -- > Thanks, > ~Nick Desaulniers

Currently, modpost only shows the symbol names and section names, so it repeats the same message if there are multiple relocations in the same symbol. It is common the relocation spans across multiple instructions. It is better to show the offset from the symbol.
