        <div>
        <pre>If you have some inline asm that has a constraint that specifies a
floating-point register, e.g.

  float func(float t)
  {
    __asm__ ( "" : "=w" (t) );
    return t;
  }

then compiling for an arm cpu without floating point (e.g. --target=arm
-mcpu=cortex-m3) using a build of clang with asserts enabled you get

  llvm/lib/CodeGen/SelectionDAG/LegalizeFloatTypes.cpp:65: bool
llvm::DAGTypeLegalizer::SoftenFloatResult(llvm::SDNode*, unsigned int):
Assertion `isLegalInHWReg(N->getValueType(ResNo)) && "Unsupported
SoftenFloatRes opcode!"' failed.

or with a build without asserts you end up in an endless loop in SelectionDAG.

We should be rejecting this code early and giving an error. It looks like
ARMTargetInfo::validateAsmConstraint is probably the place to do this.</pre>
