Understanding Disassembly Files in Cortex-M Development

Understanding Disassembly Files in Cortex-M Development

Hello everyone, I am Pi Zi Heng, a serious technical guy. Today, I will talk about disassembly files in embedded development (.s, .lst, .dump). In the fourth, fifth, and sixth lessons, I introduced three types of output files generated by the compiler/linker (relocatable, map, executable files). These three files focus on how the compiled/linked code … Read more
