Hi, 1. I think oops and panic are both some way to deal with errors occurs in kernel space. Is there any relationship between them?
AFAIK both are same.
2. I make a NULL pointer reference deliberately in a kernel module and get an oops like: ... ... ...

I wonder what is the meaning of the tow numbers after a function name.
They are offsets in the function name from which next function in the call stack is called right ?
