objdump:tldr:7b60a
The command "objdump -M intel -d ${binary}" is used to disassemble a binary file using the "objdump" tool with a specific set of options.
Here is a breakdown of the command and its components:
-
"objdump": This is a command-line tool in most Unix-like operating systems that allows users to analyze the contents of object files and executable binaries. It provides information about various sections, headers, symbols, and instructions within the file.
-
"-M intel": This option instructs objdump to format the disassembled output using the Intel syntax. Intel syntax is one of the two popular assembly language syntaxes (the other being AT&T syntax). It represents instructions and operands in a format similar to what is used in Intel processor manuals.
-
"-d": This option tells objdump to disassemble the binary file and display the resulting assembly code. It will extract the machine instructions from the file and present them in a human-readable format.
-
"${binary}": This is a placeholder for the path or name of the binary file you want to disassemble. You need to replace "${binary}" with the actual path or name of the file you wish to analyze. For example, if your binary file is named "example.exe" and is located in the current directory, you would use "objdump -M intel -d example.exe" as the command.
Overall, the command "objdump -M intel -d ${binary}" disassembles a binary file and displays the resulting assembly code using the Intel syntax.
