I know x86 inline assembly programming from the
docs available online.
As far as GCC is concerned, inline assembly is just a fancy string
substitution mechanism. The constraints are machine-dependent, but
documented in the GCC manual.
Once you have architecture and ABI documentation for the platforms you
are interested in, it should be relatively straightforward to translate
this information into inline assembly for specific tasks. These manuals
are not publicly available for all platforms. They depend on the CPU
architecture—ia64 on Windows is quite different from ia64 on GNU/Linux
or on OpenVMS, I assume.
