Subject: [PATCH v5 06/30] objtool: Store instruction disassembly result
Date: Wed, 19 Nov 2025 15:32:23 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251119143247.3944213-7-alexandre.chartre@oracle.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251119143247.3944213-1-alexandre.chartre@oracle.com>
When disassembling an instruction store the result instead of directly
printing it.
