For example, on the 68000, a logical-or instruction can combine +register or an immediate value into memory, or it can combine any kind of +operand into a register; but it cannot combine one memory location into +another. +</p> +<p>These constraints are represented as multiple alternatives. An alternative +can be described by a series of letters for each operand. The overall +constraint for an operand is made from the letters for this operand +from the first alternative, a comma, the letters for this operand from +the second alternative, a comma, and so on until the last alternative. +All operands for a single instruction must have the same number of +alternatives. +</p> +<p>So the first alternative for the 68000’s logical-or could be written as +<code>"+m" (output) : "ir" (input)</code>. The second could be <code>"+r" +(output): "irm" (input)</code>. However, the fact that two memory locations +cannot be used in a single instruction prevents simply using <code>"+rm" +(output) : "irm" (input)</code>. Using multi-alternatives, this might be +written as <code>"+m,r" (output) : "ir,irm" (input)</code>. This describes +all the available alternatives to the compiler, allowing it to choose +the most efficient one for the current conditions. +</p> +<p>There is no way within the template to determine which alternative was +chosen. However you may be able to wrap your <code>asm</code> statements with +builtins such as <code>__builtin_constant_p</code> to achieve the desired results. +</p> + + + + +</body> +</html> |
