This is untested, but it should be a reasonable starting point:
#define myopcode(rs,rt,rd) do { \
int opcode_number = 0xC4000000 | (rs<<21) | (rt<<16) | (rd<<11); \
asm(".word %0" : : "i" (opcode_number)); \
} while (0)
But you may want to add code to tell GCC that these registers are used and
how, because otherwise you may have little use of your macro. You'll
probably have to investigate the explicit register variable GCC feature
and cpp stringification. It should be straightforward though rather
boring, so I'm leaving it as an exercise.
