What format crash utility's disassembler uses to output assembly instructions?












0















Crash utility can disassemble kernel functions. but what format it uses? Which is first, source or destination?



inst src, dist 


or



inst dist, src


This is what I am asking about:



crash> dis sys_signal
0xc0112c88 <sys_signal>: push %ebp
0xc0112c89 <sys_signal+1>: mov %esp,%ebp
0xc0112c8b <sys_signal+3>: sub $0x28,%esp
0xc0112c8e <sys_signal+6>: mov 0xc(%ebp),%eax
0xc0112c91 <sys_signal+9>: mov %eax,0xffffffec(%ebp)
0xc0112c94 <sys_signal+12>: movl $0xc0000000,0xfffffff0(%ebp)
0xc0112c9b <sys_signal+19>: lea 0xffffffd8(%ebp),%eax

          The disassembler generates AT&T syntax assembly code, which puts the source first, destination last. (Intel syntax does the opposite, and you can distinguish them based on usage of sigils like % and $ all over the place.)




          • AT&T: mov %srcreg,%dstreg

          • Intel: mov dstreg, srcreg
