compiler assert on @naked function with inline assembly and pointer

[Book-reader]

fn void main()
{
	char[8] foo = {255, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0};
	io::printn(to_ulong(&foo));
}

fn ulong to_ulong(char[8]* buf) @naked @noinline
{
	asm
	{
		movq $rax, [buf];
		ret;
	}
	unreachable();
}

⚠️ The compiler encountered an unexpected error: "Violated assert: decl->var.kind == VARDECL_GLOBAL || decl->var.kind == VARDECL_CONST".

Only asm("....") was intended to be available for these sections. If we should make more available or not is an open question, so I'm going to put this a little on hold.

as in asm{} blocks weren't intended to be allowed in @naked functions?

[Book-reader]

oh, do you mean that @naked functions were intended to only be used with asm blocks and not regular code (even the unreachable() would be disallowed)?

[lerno]

Yes

Even more, only asm("...") with strings would be allowed.
