Description

Good morning,

Since retdec supports both 32-bit and 64-bit PowerPC, can it handle XCOFF file formats? If not I would like to add support.

Research direction

Start by determining whether RetDec currently handles XCOFF files for its 32-bit and 64-bit PowerPC targets. Trace the existing binary-format support and identify what would be required to add XCOFF handling. Done means XCOFF inputs are supported and verified for both stated PowerPC variants.
