        <pre>Example (minimized): <a href="https://gcc.godbolt.org/z/nqKq49q7a">https://gcc.godbolt.org/z/nqKq49q7a</a>

 [[noreturn]]  void trap()  {
     asm volatile ("ret");
 }

generates this LLVM-IR:


    define dso_local void @_Z4trapv() #0 {
      call void asm sideeffect "ret", "~{dirflag},~{fpsr},~{flags}"() #1,
!srcloc !4
      ret void
    }

    attributes #0 = { noinline noreturn nounwind optnone uwtable mustprogress }
    attributes #1 = { nounwind }

and there does not appear to be a way to add the LLVM-IR "noreturn" attribute
to the call such that #1 becomes:

    attributes #1 = { nounwind noreturn }


There are a couple of ways in which this could be allowed, e.g.,:

  - supporting: [[noreturn]] asm volatile(....)
  - supporting: asm volatile(... : : : "noreturn")


If this is supported, both the LLVM-IR "call" or "invoke" instructions
generated should have the "noreturn" attribute.


Also, the warning produced:

    warning: function declared 'noreturn' should not return
[-Winvalid-noreturn]

should probably be updated to take inline asm expressions that never return
into account.</pre>
