A standalone powerpc disassembler written as a wrapper over GNU libopcode library. It accepts the opcode ( in hex or decimal ) as it's argument and spits the disassembled output.
Recently, a reference assembler has been added. It takes the instruction in string form and spits the assembled 32-bit opcode.It's not fully tested and may not work always.

Features

  • primary opcodes database is based on libopcodes provided by binutils-2.22.52.0.2
  • secondary opcodes database is based on Power ISA 2.06 - Appendix H.
  • secondary opcodes database doesn't support extended mnemonics yet.
  • shows output in big endian as well as little endian.
  • supports specific ppc target ( for eg. altivec, booke etc ) to be passed as an option.
  • shows string representation of the decoded mnemonic using the secondary database.
  • shows some other information like instruction form, category, priviledge type and mode dependency.
  • can show opcode information by mnemonic ( if passed using command line ).
  • added a reference assembler. It takes instructions in string form with option "-I" .
  • added support for disassembling from binary file.
