Answer 1

There is a way to disassemble a function or a certain section of code, is that what you are after?

The command to do so would be disassemble <function name> or a memory location.

Is this what you are referring to?

(gdb) help disassemble
Disassemble a specified section of memory.
Default is the function surrounding the pc of the selected frame.
With a single argument, the function surrounding that address is dumped.
Two arguments are taken as a range of memory to dump.
