13.1. tiarmdis - Standalone Disassembler Tool

The tiarmdis standalone disassembler tool is provided as part of the tiarmclang compiler toolchain installation. This tool processes an ELF object file or executable file as input and writes the disassembled output to stdout or a specified output file.

13.1.1. Usage

tiarmdis [options] input_file [output_file]

  • tiarmdis - is the command that invokes the disassembler.

  • options - affect the behavior of tiarmdis while processing the input_file.

  • input_file - identifies an input object file or executable file. A file extension for the input_file is optional. If a file extension is not provided, then tiarmdis will serch for the specified input_file in the following order:

    1. input_file

    2. input_file.out

    3. input_file.obj
