User Commands dis(1)
NAME
dis - object code disassembler
SYNOPSIS
dis [-onqCLV] [-d sec] [-D sec] [-F function]
[-l string] [-t sec] file...
DESCRIPTION
The dis command produces an assembly language listing of
file, which can be an object file or an archive of object
files. The listing includes assembly statements and an octal
or hexadecimal representation of the binary that produced
those statements.
OPTIONS
Options are interpreted by the disassembler and can be
specified in any order.
The following options are supported:
-C Displays demangled C] symbol names in the
disassembly.
-d sec Disassembles the named section as data,
printing the offset of the data from the
beginning of the section.
-D sec Disassembles the named section as data,
printing the actual address of the data.
-F function Disassembles only the named function in each
object file specified on the command line.
The -F option can be specified multiple times
on the command line.
-l string Disassembles the archive file specified by
string. For example, one would issue the com-
mand dis -l x -l z to disassemble libx.a and
libz.a, which are assumed to be in LIBDIR.
This option is obsolete and might be removed
in a future release of Solaris.
-L Invokes a lookup of C-language source labels
in the symbol table for subsequent writing to

standard output.
This option is obsolete and might be removed
in a future release of Solaris.
-n Displays all addresses numerically. Addresses
are displayed using symbolic names by
default.
-o Prints numbers in octal. The default is hexa-
decimal.
-q Quiet mode. Does not print any headers or
function entry labels.
-t sec Disassembles the named section as text.
-V Prints, on standard error, the version number
of the disassembler being executed.
This option is obsolete and might be removed
in a future release of Solaris.
If the -d, -D, or -t options are specified, only those named
sections from each user-supplied file is disassembled. Oth-
erwise, all sections containing text is disassembled.
On output, a number enclosed in brackets at the beginning of
a line, such as [5], indicates that the break-pointable line
number starts with the following instruction. These line
numbers is printed only if the file was compiled with addi-
tional debugging information, for example, the -g option of
cc(1B). An expression such as <40> in the operand field or
in the symbolic disassembly, following a relative displace-
ment for control transfer instructions, is the computed
address within the section to which control is transferred.
A function name appears in the first column, followed by ()
if the object file contains a symbol table.
OPERANDS
The following operand is supported:
file A path name of an object file or an archive (see
ar(1)) of object files.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
See environ(5) for descriptions of the following environment
variables that affect the execution of dis: LCTYPE,
LCMESAGES, and NLSPATH.
LIBDIR If this environment variable contains a value, use
this as the path to search for the library. If the
variable contains a null value, or is not set, it
defaults to searching for the library under
/usr/lib.
EXIT STATUS
The following exit values are returned:
0 Successful completion.
>0 An error occurred.
FILES
/usr/lib default LIBDIR
ATRIBUTES
See attributes(5) for descriptions of the following attri-
butes:
ATRIBUTE TYPE ATRIBUTE VALUE
Availability SUNWbtool
Interface Stability See below.
The human readable output is Unstable. The command line
options are Evolving.
