When labels are present, the `noreturn` option really means that asm block
won't fallthrough -- if labels are present, then outputs can still be
meaningfully used.
`asm!()` is forced to be wrapped inside unsafe. If there's no special
treatment, the label blocks would also always be unsafe with no way
of opting out.
Tweak type inference for `const` operands in inline asm
Previously these would be treated like integer literals and default to `i32` if a type could not be determined. To allow for forward-compatibility with `str` constants in the future, this PR changes type inference to use an unbound type variable instead.
The actual type checking is deferred until after typeck where we still ensure that the final type for the `const` operand is an integer type.

There are a few tests that depend on some target features **not** being
enabled by default, and usually they are correct with the default x86-64
target CPU. However, in downstream builds we have modified the default
to fit our distros -- `x86-64-v2` in RHEL 9 and `x86-64-v3` in RHEL 10
-- and the latter especially trips tests that expect not to have AVX.
These cases are few enough that we can just set them back explicitly.
Mention Register Size in `#[warn(asm_sub_register)]`
Fixes#121593
Displays the register size information obtained from `suggest_modifier()` and `default_modifier()`.
LLVM 18 requires the evex512 feature to allow use of zmm registers.
LLVM automatically sets it when using a generic CPU, but not when
`-C target-cpu` is specified. This will result either in backend
legalization crashes, or code unexpectedly using ymm instead of
zmm registers.
For now, make sure that `avx512*` features imply `evex512`. Long
term we'll probably have to deal with the AVX10 mess somehow.
Currently the test passes with the LLVM backend as the codegen unit
partitioning logic happens to place both the global_asm!() and the
function which calls the function defined by the global_asm!() in the
same CGU. With the Cranelift backend it breaks however as it will place
all assembly in separate codegen units to be passed to an external
linker.
The `asm!` and `global_asm!` macros require their operands to appear
strictly in the following order:
- Template strings
- Positional operands
- Named operands
- Explicit register operands
- `clobber_abi`
- `options`
This is overly strict and can be inconvienent when building complex
`asm!` statements with macros. This PR relaxes the ordering requirements
as follows:
- Template strings must still come before all other operands.
- Positional operands must still come before named and explicit register
operands.
- Named and explicit register operands can be freely mixed.
- `options` and `clobber_abi` can appear in any position.
