You can list the available architectures with the @option{-i} option. +For most architectures it is possible to supply an architecture +name and a machine name, separated by a colon. For example +@samp{foo:bar} would refer to the @samp{bar} machine type in the +@samp{foo} architecture. This can be helpful if objdump has been +configured to support multiple architectures. + If the target is an ARM architecture then this switch has an additional effect. It restricts the disassembly to only those instructions supported by the architecture specified by @var{machine}. |
