The main other potential problem I see is that in a leaf function the stack pointer need not be aligned, so if your asm function calls some other function, the stack pointer may not be aligned as required by the ABI. That will cause weird things to happen if you call a function that uses any of the vector registers. > For an example, here's one use of calling within inline assembly: I'm not saying that the functionality isn't useful.
