Subject[PATCH 17/17] perf tools: Allow user to indicate path to objdump in command line
Date
From: Maciek Borzecki <maciek.borzecki@gmail.com>

When analyzing perf data from hosts of other architecture than one of
the local host it's useful to call objdump that is part of a toolchain
for that architecture. Instead of calling regular objdump, call one that
user specified in command line.
