The same register may be used for both an input and an output, even when they are not explicitly aliased. If an op expands to multiple target instructions then care must be taken to avoid clobbering input values. -GCC style "early clobber" outputs are not currently supported. +GCC style "early clobber" outputs are supported, with '&'. A target can define specific register or constant constraints. If an operation uses a constant input constraint which does not allow all constants, it must also accept registers in order to have a fallback. +The constraint 'i' is defined generically to accept any constant. +The constraint 'r' is not defined generically, but is consistently +used by each backend to indicate all registers. The movi_i32 and movi_i64 operations must accept any constants.
