Re: [avr-gcc-list] Assembly constraints in words

[Theodore A. Roth]

Hi,

The information you want is available in two places:

The gcc manual:
  http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Extended-Asm.html#Extended%20Asm

The inline asm cookbook:
  
http://freesoftware.fsf.org/download/avr-libc/doc/avr-libc-user-manual/inline_asm.html

I've just gone through the inline asm cookbook and fixed a bunch of
grammatical errors but haven't even made up a patch yet. ;-)

Now for you question, this _might_ work:

#define __LPM_enhanced_16__(addr) ({            \
        unsigned short __addr16 = (unsigned short)(addr); \
        unsigned short __result16;              \
        __asm__ (                               \
                "lpm %A0, Z+"                   \
                "lpm %B0, Z"                    \
                : "=r" (__result16)             \
                : "z" (__addr16)                \
        );                                      \
        __result16;                             \
 })

I haven't tested this so it could be utter crap. Iffen I made a mistake,
could some kind soul correct me? ;-)

:) Hello,

:) I want to create an word LPM that is based on the one found in avr-libc,

:)
:)      __asm__ (

:)          "lpm %0+1, Z" "\n"

:)          : "z" (__addr16)
:)          : "z"
:)      );
:)
:) where i want "%0" to be one of the word registers (but not Z, of course)
:) and i want "%0+1" to be this word register +1. I can easily pin it down
:) to use a specific register pair, but I would prefer that gcc still can
:) select what register to use. Can anyone tell me how, please?
:)
:) PS! Also note that the asm clobbers the z register. Is there a better
:) way to specify that z is input *and* is clobbered?
