-<pre>

i32 (i32) asm "bswap $0", "=r,r"
</pre>
-</div>
<p>Inline assembler expressions may <b>only</b> be used as the callee operand of

<p>Inline asms with side effects not visible in the constraint list must be

-<div class="doc_code">
-<pre>
+<pre class="doc_code">
call void asm sideeffect "eieio", ""()

<p>In some cases inline asms will contain code that will not work unless the
