Im trying to convert something in C
int div
div = div/2;
into inline ATT x86 assembly using right shift (SAR)
asm("sar %0" : "=r"(div));
but I couldn't get it to work. Any insights would be greatly appreciated
By using =r, you are telling the compiler that the existing value in div is overwritten by the asm. To tell it you are both reading and writing the value of div in the asm, use +r (see https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Modifiers.html):
asm("sar %0" : "+r"(div));
