* 是什麼意思使用 hexdump -C？

我一直在做練習，試圖了解程序背後發生的一些事情。我編寫了一個小 C 程序，並在 i386 Linux (Ubuntu 12.04) 上使用gcc. 然後我hexdump -C對文本文件的輸出做了一個。我注意到偏移量上有一些差距*：

我的問題是，我應該如何解釋*？我認為這意味著文件中存在間隙，但是問題轉向為什麼存在間隙？這是 ELF 文件的標準格式的一部分嗎？

與標準od命令 or一樣hd，這意味著所有省略的行都與前一行相同。無論如何，您都可以通過-v使其顯示這些行。來自hexdump(1)：

-v 選項使 hexdump 顯示所有輸入數據。如果沒有 -v 選項，任何數量的輸出行組，與前一組輸出行（輸入偏移除外）相同，都將替換為由單個星號組成的行。
