I think it was a > bad idea. Why not write a .s file which does what you want? Well, from the discussions I read (for instance in bug #25967) before posting this, I was more or less expecting this remark. I agree that some arguments there are not valid. In a nutshell, I wrote quite a lot of tricky testing code (dealing manually with functions prologues/epilogues, etc..) for the ARM target (Ramana : please pardon the misused 'legacy' adjective) using this feature, and I would like to have a similar installment for ARM64. I am also generally simply bothered at the idea of putting decoration at the beginning of an assembly file, and starting from .c enables me to have the appropriate tags automatically emitted when I switch from target to target. --C
