"""A tool for looking for indirect jumps and calls in x86 binaries.

   Helpful to verify whether or not retpoline mitigations are catching
   all of the indirect branches in a binary and telling you which
   functions the remaining ones are in (assembly, etc).

   Depends on llvm-objdump being in your path and is tied to the
   dump format.
