[Qemu-devel] [PATCH] arm-dis: Include opcode hex when doing disassembly

[Peter Maydell]

Enhance the ARM disassembler used for debugging so that it includes
the hex dump of the opcode as well as the symbolic disassembly.

This is based on meego-qemu commit e548a60c with a change suggested
last time that patch was sent to qemu-devel:

http://www.mail-archive.com/qemu-devel@nongnu.org/msg29235.html
    
I have used GNU-style indent conventions in this change because
the rest of this file consistently does so (being from libopcode
originally).

Strangely on arm host, the opcode hex is already included, as shown
below:

| OUT: [size=308]
| 0x01001ec0:  e5974004  ldr      r4, [r7, #4]
| 0x01001ec4:  e1a04804  lsl      r4, r4, #16
| 0x01001ec8:  e1a04824  lsr      r4, r4, #16
| 0x01001ecc:  e1a04404  lsl      r4, r4, #8

Maybe there is just an option to enable to allow that?

It looks like that's just an ugly #ifdef in disas.c:disas():
#ifdef __arm__
        /* since data is included in the code, it is better to
           display code data too */
        fprintf(out, "%08x  ", (int)bfd_getl32((const bfd_byte *)pc));
#endif

...so I guess if we commit the patch I submitted we should
just delete that #ifdef.

I have applied this patch, and committed another one that removes this
hack.
