Yes, you mean git checkout v3.2 Yes it's the same all the way back to 2.6.39 or so

I just did that I get the same as above: addr2line -e .build_um/vmlinux 0x600179b8

right that what I thought.
so if I make a break point that happened in another fork will it trigger still? I guess

I need to turn off?
