Microsoft Specific
The presence of an __asm
block in a function affects optimization in several ways. First, the compiler doesn't try to optimize the __asm
block itself. What you write in assembly language is exactly what you get. Second, the presence of an __asm
block affects register variable storage. The compiler avoids enregistering variables across an __asm
block if the register's contents would be changed by the __asm
block. Finally, some other function-wide optimizations will be affected by the inclusion of assembly language in a function.
