Hello.

I have ELF file compiled for PA-RISC. Have PA-RISC machine with HP-UX
11.11. And trying to decompile this file.

Dump of assembler code for function module_fn:

What else can I try to disassemble it?
Thanks in advance.

So this objdump was compiled without 64-bit support.
Build yourself another one that has 64-bit pa-risc.

Gdb isn't prepared to work on relocatable objects; only on fully
linked executables and DSOs.
