[avr-gcc-list] 16Bit arg in assembl. macro

Hi,


i wanted to write an assembler macro, wich takes an uint16_t sized Argument (two bytes) and returns two bytes (again an uint16_t) which are computed by the macro.

i defined the macro like this:

#define randLCG(_seed_) ({              \
        uint16_t __t;                                   \
        __asm__ __volatile__ (                  \
                        "; some assembler code"               \
                : "=r" (__t)  /* out */                       \
                : "r" ((uint16_t)(_seed_)) /* in */   \
                :  /* clobber */                                \
                );                                                      \
                __t;                                                    \
                                                        })

where __t is the return value and the 16 bit _seed_ should go into 2 registers (selected by the compiler).

My question is now, is it possible to assign an 2 byte var like i have done it to the register(s) and how do i reference them (%1 and %2 for low/higbyte doesnt work)? Or do i have to break it into two one byte vars manually ?

And than a second question. If i use code in my assembler macros which clobbers registers r0 and r1 (multiplications), is it save if i only add the two registers to the clobber-list or is there extra work to do?
