The welcome page says: > Highlight features > Multi-architectures: [...] , RISCV, [...] > ([details](http://www.capstone-engine.org/arch.html)). but the "details" page does not mention RISC-V. Some digging indicate that RISC-V has been present for 2 years in their `next` branch: https://github.com/capstone-engine/capstone/blob/next/include/capstone/riscv.h Is there any other platforms apart from RISC-V missing? My understanding from previous bouts of this discussion is that binutils format strings differently from other disassemblers, and is more or less "clever" in resolving some constructs. If this is a blocker, I think there are some possibilities to tweak some knobs on Capstone to make it appear more like binutils. If upgrading binutils to 2.39+ is a dead end, or at least requires more intrusive changes, I think it might be just as worthwhile in spending that time trying to make Capstone a full-fledged replacement for binutils. ------------- PR: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/10817
