B8.4.2 Constraint codes
Constraint codes define how to pass an operand between assembly code and the surrounding C or C++ code.
There are three categories of constraint codes:
- Constant operands
- You can only use these operands as input operands, and they must be compile-time constants. Use where a value will be used as an immediate operand to an instruction. There are target-specific constraints that accept the immediate ranges suitable for different instructions.
- Register operands
- You can use these operands as both input and output operands. The compiler allocates a register to store the value. As there are a limited number of registers, it is possible to write an inline assembly statement for which there are not enough available registers. In this case, the compiler reports an error. The exact number of available registers varies depending on the target architecture and the optimization level.
- Memory operands
- You can use these operands as both input and output operands. Use them with load and store instructions. Usually a register is allocated to hold a pointer to the operand. As there are a limited number of registers, it is possible to write an inline assembly statement for which there are not enough available registers. In this case, the compiler reports an error. The exact number of available registers can vary depending on the target architecture and the optimization level.
There are some common constraints, which can be used in both AArch32 state and AArch64 state. Other constraints are specific to AArch32 state or AArch64 state. In AArch32 state, there are some constraints that vary depending on the selected instruction set.
