<p>Each <code>match_operand</code> in an instruction pattern can specify
|
||
|
|
constraints for the operands allowed. The constraints allow you to
|
||
|
|
fine-tune matching within the set of operands allowed by the
|
||
|
|
predicate.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>Constraints can say whether
|
||
|
|
an operand may be in a register, and which kinds of register; whether the
|
||
|
|
operand can be a memory reference, and which kinds of address; whether the
|
||
|
|
operand may be an immediate constant, and which possible values it may
|
||
|
|
have. Constraints can also require two operands to match.
|
||
|
|
Side-effects aren’t allowed in operands of inline <code>asm</code>, unless
|
||
|
|
‘<samp><</samp>’ or ‘<samp>></samp>’ constraints are used, because there is no guarantee
|
||
|
|
that the side-effects will happen exactly once in an instruction that can update
|
||
|
|
the addressing register.
