   Hi All,   
      
   I would like to parse the assembly output of gcc (the *.s file that we   
   get when we compile the file with -s flag) to identify function calls,   
   function definitions and loops. I was wondering if there is a grammar   
   file for the assembly format printed out by gcc. Any suggestions that   
   might be a cleaner way to parse the assembly file would be very   
   helpful.   
      
   Thanks in advance

   [The assembler syntax is of course specific to the architecture of   
   your computer, but since most gcc output is assembled by the GNU   
   assembler gas, that's one place to start.  Some architectures use .y   
   files, some hand coded parsers.  On the other hand, for this sort of   
   analysis I suspect that some perl or python adhockery would work just   
   as well and be a lot easier. -John]
