Re: [PATCH] ARM Disassembler fix


Hi Daniel,

The attached patch fixes a bug that causes the disassembler to dump code when it should dump data.

This looks wrong to me. Why should the disassembler assume that, in the absence of mapping symbols to guide it, the .text section contains data rather than instructions ? Surely it is more likely to contain instructions and it is merely that the mapping symbols are absent ?


Cheers
  Nick
