Dear All,

I am facing some random crashes in my applications on using the neon(inline)
assembly code. However with pure C code the application works fine. I had
following questions regarding neon inline assembly usage.


Q1> In Inline neon assembly does only d8-d15 registers are required to be added
in clobber list even if inline assembly uses d0-d7,d16-d31 registers?

Q2> Correct way to put the register in clobber list: s(32 bit) , d(64 bit) or
q(128bit) registers.

Thanks in Advanced.
