Because a hexadecimal address that starts with "0x"
will be stored in pp->function. sizeof(unsigned long long) * 2 is
maximum length of hexadecimal number of  variable "vaddr"
and 3 bytes are for "0x" and null character.

You are right, but I didn't want to write down the length of
"pp->function" again.
