oatdump utility. Similar to objdump, it displays information from oat files
in human-readable form. It is fast but produces a lot of output. We can get
almost all information we could need like this:
```console
$ adb shell oatdump --oat-file=/data/app/~~ICLdeF7FOXIe1b9MxToZGQ==/\
app.organicmaps-2xFay0QEb95pHRC_k_T1gA==/oat/arm64/base.odex \
> app.organicmaps.odex.oatdump
$ cat app.organicmaps.odex.oatdump
[...]
3: double app.organicmaps.util.LocationUtils.correctAngle(double, double)

We say it contains almost all information because the output refers to the
code_offset relative to the oatdata section in the OAT file. To get this
offset, we can use readelf:
```console
$ adb shell readelf -s /data/app/~~ICLdeF7FOXIe1b9MxToZGQ==/\
app.organicmaps-2xFay0QEb95pHRC_k_T1gA==/oat/arm64/base.odex \
| grep 'oatdata$'
1: 0000000000000658 2865576 OBJECT GLOBAL DEFAULT 5 oatdata
```
Now we know we need to add 0x658 to the addresses in the oatdump output. If
we want to compare it directly to Ghidra's output, we also need to add
0x100000 unless Ghidra used a different base address.
---[ 3.4 - Wait, Where Did the Arithmetic Go?
Eagle-eyed readers might have noticed some dummy arithmetic operations in
the Dalvik code, with a goto instruction at the end, that seemingly
vanished during compilation. We're sorry we were not completely honest. We
did not use the regular build of Organic Maps, but instead a version that
was repackaged with ObfuscAPK [15], using the "ArtithmeticBranch"
obfuscation. This adds a branch at the beginning of each method with an
arithmetic expression that always resolves to the same code being executed.
The ART helpfully removed this obfuscation as part of its optimizations.
This means we get some free normalization of code along the way, as a
treat! Not enough to deal with advanced techniques, but enough to make a
difference.
To compare the same method without obfuscations, here's another oatdump of
the original Organic Maps app:
```console
$ cat app.organicmaps_unobfuscated.odex.oatdump
