It will not work like this in GCC, no.  The LLVM people know about that.
I do not know why they insist on pushing this, being incompatible and
everything.

Umm. Since they'd be the ones supporting this, *gcc* would be the
incompatible one, not clang.

I had an 'interesting' idea.

Can you use a local asm register variable as an input and output to
an 'asm volatile goto' statement?

Well you can - but is it guaranteed to work :-)


With gcc at least it should work according to https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Local-Register-Variables.html

They even explicitely tell: "The only supported use for this feature is to specify registers for input and output operands when calling Extended asm "
