… r=Amanieu Stabilize passing 128-bit integers via vector registers with `asm!` on x86 tracking issue: rust-lang#133416 reference PR: rust-lang/reference#2313 # Stabilization report ## Summary Stabilize passing 128-bit integers via vector registers with `asm!` on x86 and x86_64: ```rust // Use 128-bit integers with vector registers. let mut v = 0u128; asm!("/* {:x} */", in(xmm_reg) v); asm!("/* {:x} */", out(xmm_reg) v); asm!("/* {:y} */", in(ymm_reg) v); asm!("/* {:y} */", out(ymm_reg) v); asm!("/* {:z} */", in(zmm_reg) v); asm!("/* {:z} */", out(zmm_reg) v); ``` 32-bit and 64-bit integer types can already be passed via vector registers. LLVM has supported 128-bit integers since 2019, see llvm/llvm-project#42502, so `rustc` not supporting them seems like an oversight. This feature is part of [`asm_experimental_reg`](rust-lang#133416). We're not stabilizing that feature as a whole, but only pull out part of it. ## History - rust-lang#151059 ## Open questions None. r? Amanieu
