I have a C++ program (i386 target) which has a piece of inline
assembly with the following constraints:

asm(/* Some asm code */
    : "=&rm" (n0), "=&r" (n1), "=&r" (n2)
    : "2" (n0), "1" (n1), "g" (n2), "cI" (s)
);

When compiled with g++ 4.1.2 (CXXFLAGS=-O2 -march=pentium4) the
operands %0 and %5 get the same memory address, even though they refer
to distinct variables (n0 and n2).

It would help to see the types of the variables.  Is n2 a pointer?
Also it would help to see the actual values that wind up getting
passed in.
n0, n1, n2 are unsigned long (members of the same C++ class, the asm statement is in a member function), s is unsigned char.

I think more details would help.  For example, run gcc with the -dg
option, look at FILENAME.xxx.greg, and show us the insn corresponding
to the asm statement.
This is the full asm statement:
asm("# number_t& number_t::operator>>=(unsigned char s)\n"
    "   shrdl %6, %4, %3\n"
    "   movl %3, %0\n"
    "   movl %5, %2\n"
    "   shrdl %6, %2, %1\n"
    "   shrl %6, %2\n"
    : "=&rm" (n0), "=&r" (n1), "=&r" (n2)
    : "2" (n0), "1" (n1), "g" (n2), "cI" (s)
);

The code generated is the following:
    shrdl %cl, %esi, %eax
    movl %eax, -4384(%ebp)
    movl -4384(%ebp), %eax
    shrdl %cl, %eax, %esi
    shrl %cl, %eax

As you can see, %0 and %5 both become -4384(%ebp).
See attachment for the output from -dg.

I hope this clarifies the problem.


Thank you!
