<p>The <code>asm</code> keyword allows you to embed assembler instructions
within C code. GCC provides two forms of inline <code>asm</code>
statements. A <em>basic <code>asm</code></em> statement is one with no
operands (see <a href="Basic-Asm.html#Basic-Asm">Basic Asm</a>), while an <em>extended <code>asm</code></em>
statement (see <a href="Extended-Asm.html#Extended-Asm">Extended Asm</a>) includes one or more operands.
The extended form is preferred for mixing C and assembly language
within a function, but to include assembly language at
top level you must use basic <code>asm</code>.
</p>
<p>You can also use the <code>asm</code> keyword to override the assembler name
for a C symbol, or to place a C variable in a specific register.
