Purpose: This tool displays the assembly code of all symbols matching a given
         pattern in a given set of files. It is a quick&dirty wrapper around
         the nm(1) and objdump(1) tools. Its main advantage is that it does not
         require you to find out the addresses of a given set of symbols
         manually. Also, it's considerably faster than just disassembling the
         whole Linux kernel on slow systems.

Example: show_asm printk vmlinux
         Disassemble printk-related functions in the Linux kernel.

         show_asm 'main|foo|bar' *.o
         Disassemble all main, foo, and bar
         functions in all object files in the current directory.
