Hi Aashish,

I am trying to modify objdump to dump object file information for a
ELF64 file but on a different
kernel but its giving an error saying file format not recognized.

Try looking at the source code for the function elfNN_ia64_object_p in bfd/elfxx-ia64.c. This is probably where your object file should be recognised. (Note, during the binutils building process the "NN" in elfNN_ia64_object_p is replaced with "64", hence when you are debugging objdump you should look for the function elf64_ia64_object_p).

Cheers
  Nick
