Currently you can't disassemble a section, nor would you probably want to since
there are padding bytes in between functions.
The easiest way is to get all SBSymbol objects and ask each one for the
instructions if they are code:
(lldb) script
Python Interactive Interpreter. To exit, type 'quit()', 'exit()' or Ctrl-D.
>>> module = lldb.target.module['a.out']
>>> num_symbols = module.GetNumSymbols()
>>> for i in range(num_symbols):
... symbol = module.GetSymbolAtIndex(i)
... if symbol.GetType() == lldb.eSymbolTypeCode:
... print symbol
... instructions = symbol.GetInstructions(lldb.target)
... for inst in instructions:
... print inst
...

If you want the symbols only from a specific section you can get the section
from the symbol's start address and compare that to a given name:
section_name = ".text"
for i in range(num_symbols):
symbol = module.GetSymbolAtIndex(i)
if symbol.GetType() == lldb.eSymbolTypeCode:
symbol_section = symbol.GetStartAddress().GetSection()
if symbol_section.GetName() == section_name:
print symbol
instructions = symbol.GetInstructions(lldb.target)
for inst in instructions:
print inst
