Unable to mark ARM32's r14 register as clobbered in asm!

[jrvanwhy]

I attempted to compile a crate containing the following expression:

unsafe { asm!("svc 0", lateout("r14") _); }

I expected it to compile successfully.

Instead, I received this error:

error: couldn't allocate output register for constraint '{r14}'

RUST_BACKTRACE=1 omitted, it did not produce anything else.

@Amanieu diagnosed the cause and offered a solution here.

While I try to spin up a rustc development environment, can someone point me to the tests for this code? I don't see any tests in the crate.

I think I have a working rustc development environment now. I'll try to fix this -- thank you @Amanieu for making this easy for me!
