Ok,
Why is it in quotes? %% before register names is annoying and mainly the
: : (r) (=m) "memory" stuff at the end of the asm block. Here's an example
for those who never wandered through the source code: (strstr.c)
char * strstr(const char * cs,const char * ct)
{
int d0, d1;
register char * __res;
__asm__ __volatile__(
"movl %6,%%edi\n\t"
"repne\n\t"
"scasb\n\t"
"notl %%ecx\n\t"
"decl %%ecx\n\t" /* NOTE! This also sets Z if searchstring='' */
"movl %%ecx,%%edx\n"
"1:\tmovl %6,%%edi\n\t"
"movl %%esi,%%eax\n\t"
"movl %%edx,%%ecx\n\t"
"repe\n\t"
"cmpsb\n\t"
"je 2f\n\t" /* also works for empty string, see above */
"xchgl %%eax,%%esi\n\t"
"incl %%esi\n\t"
"cmpb $0,-1(%%eax)\n\t"
"jne 1b\n\t"
"xorl %%eax,%%eax\n\t"
"2:"
:"=a" (__res), "=&c" (d0), "=&S" (d1)
:"0" (0), "1" (0xffffffff), "2" (cs), "g" (ct)
:"dx", "di");
return __res;
}
