NAME
       function::sprint_stack - Return stack for kernel addresses from string (EXPERIMENTAL)

SYNOPSIS
           sprint_stack:string(stk:string)

ARGUMENTS
       stk
           String with list of hexadecimal (kernel) addresses

DESCRIPTION
       Perform a symbolic lookup of the addresses in the given string, which is assumed to be the result of a prior call to
       backtrace.

       Returns a simple backtrace from the given hex string. One line per address. Includes the symbol name (or hex address if
       symbol couldn't be resolved) and module name (if found). Includes the offset from the start of the function if found,
       otherwise the offset will be added to the module (if found, between brackets). Returns the backtrace as string (each line
       terminated by a newline character). Note that the returned stack will be truncated to MAXSTRINGLEN, to print fuller and
       richer stacks use print_stack.
