If you, for whatever reason, need to disassemble non-x86 binary files, you usually look out for a disassembler. If there's nothing free available for your platform (e.g.: ARM) one of the few solutions may be buying something like IDA Pro. | |||
But wait, if you only need to "analyze" a small portion (boot-sector, single routine, ...) and someone already ported GNUs GCC and bintools to your platform, using OBJDUMP may do the trick... | |||
If "raw.bin" is your binary file, just typing | |||
<pre> objdump -d raw.bin | |||
objdump: raw.bin: File format not recognized</pre> | |||
will not work. Objdump needs a file system object or file. | |||
Just do it like this: | |||
<pre> # create an empty file | |||
touch empty.c | |||
# compile this empty file | |||
gcc -c -o empty.o empty.c | |||
# add binary as a raw section | |||
objcopy --add-section raw=raw.bin empty.o | |||
# remove ".comment" section to join | |||
objcopy -R .comment empty.o | |||
# now run objdump on it | |||
objdump -d empty.o</pre> | |||
