[LLVMdev] problem when use inline asm for msp430 target

[Heyu Zhu]

Hi everyone,

inline asm code is like below:

void test(unsigned short a) {
   asm("myinstr          my16bitreg, %0"::"r"(a));
}
I want it generate instruction "myinstr          my16bitreg, r15"

I execute
llc test.bc -march = msp430 -o test.s
then it reports
"LLVM ERROR: Couldn't allocate input reg for constraint 'r' !"

What's the reason?

Thanks
