Hi,
Ok, so as far as I can see, we can only control the execution flow by modifying
values in the output list of the asm.
Do you think the following would work ?
#define MARK_JUMP(name, format, args...) \
do { \
char condition; \
asm volatile( ".section .markers, \"a\";\n\t" \
".long 0f;\n\t" \
".previous;\n\t" \
"0:\n\t" \
"movb $0,%1;\n\t" \
: "+m" (__marker_sequencer), \
"=r" (condition) : ); \
if(unlikely(condition)) { \
MARK_CALL(name, format, ## args); \
} \
} while(0)
Yep, that looks reasonable. Though you could just directly test a per-marker enable flag, rather than using "condition"...
