arm objdump bug?


Hi,

We are doing object coverage analysis on RTEMS.  We
have been spending a lot of time looking at objdumps.
Our program which looks for nops and marks instructions
as not executed got confused when it saw this:


_Context_Switch( &_Thread_BSP_context, &_Thread_Heir->Registers ); f384: ea0015cc b 14abc <_CPU_Context_switch> f388: 0001fd30 .word 0x0001fd30 f38c: 0001fa84 .word 0x0001fa84 f390: 0001fbd4 .word 0x0001fbd4 f394: 0001f7d8 .word 0x0001f7d8 f398: fbb4 .short 0xfbb4 f39a: 01 .byte 0x01 ...

0000f39c <_Thread_Start>:


The sequence of .short, .byte, ... probably should be another
word which with a value of 0x001fbb4.


I don't have the .exe this was generated from anymore and
from many runs, we have only seen this once so far.  The
full objdump is here:

Thanks.
