I produced an uncompressed image(the error above caused by giving a compressed
image to faddr2line) by compiling 4.14.32 with config which we have in production
and now faddr2line reports:

 ../repo/Linux/linux/scripts/faddr2line ./vmlinux 0010:fsnotify+0x197/0x510
no match for 0010:fsnotify+0x197/0x510


 ../repo/Linux/linux/scripts/faddr2line ./vmlinux fsnotify+0x197/0x510



skipping fsnotify address at 0xffffffff8129baf7 due to size mismatch (0x510 != 0x520)
no match for fsnotify+0x197/0x510

what am I doing wrong?

Cheers,
Pavlos
