Objdump

objdump is a command-line program for displaying various information about object files on Unix-like operating systems. For instance, it can be used as a disassembler to view an executable in assembly form. It is part of the GNU Binutils for fine-grained control over executables and other binary data. objdump uses the BFD library to read the contents of object files. Similar utilities are Borland TDUMP, Microsoft DUMPBIN and readelf.

On certain platforms (e.g. macOS), the objdump binary may actually be a link to LLVM's objdump, with different command-line options and behavior.

Example
For example,

$ objdump -D -M intel file.bin | grep main.: -A20

This performs disassembly on the file «file.bin», with the assembly code shown in Intel syntax. We then redirect it to grep, which searches the main function and displays 20 lines of its code.
