Clang's Integrated Assembler. The project has copious amounts of<br>
inline assembly (both stand alone one-liners for shift and rotates;<br>

worse?), it mixes AT&T and Intel because it supports Microsoft and GNU<br>

<br>
I'm having trouble understanding an error message from the assembler.<br>
The message is on the use of 'neg' under the Intel dialect:<br>
<br>
<inline asm>:3:7: note: instantiated into assembly here<br>
neg %rcx;<br>
^<br>
<br>
The code looks like:<br>
<br>
int SomeFunction(int* ptr, int val1, int val2)<br>
{<br>
int ret;<br>
__asm__ __volatile (<br>
".intel_syntax" "\n"<br>
neg %1;<br>
...<br>
)<br>
<br>
return ret;<br>
}<br>

I'm testing on x86_64, so I tried changing to 'negq %1;' with no joy.<br>

I'm experiencing it with both Apple's Clang 3.2, and LLVM's Clang<br>
3.6.0 built from sources (<a href="https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__llvm.org_releases_&d=AwMFaQ&c=8hUWFZcy2Z-Za5rBPlktOQ&r=CnzuN65ENJ1H9py9XLiRvC_UQz6u3oG6GUNn7_wosSM&m=iviteUf0h4DXGmyCwacxxX94il3QGLPa732kzx619gU&s=5uzZEVAD8a1EU7oyzFOsKq35kSa0cZrHJsrsYm5vc0U&e=" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">http://llvm.org/releases/</a>).<br>
<br>
Naively (and I stress naively), “unknown token in expression” appears<br>
to be a bogus message since the assembly instruction its complaining<br>
about does not seem to have a problem. So I suspect there is something<br>
else the integrated assembler finds offensive.<br>
<br>
Could anyone help me understand what the issue is?<br>
<br>
Thanks in advance. Jeff.<br>
