As pointed out by @Freax13 in #1350 (comment), we already allow
asm!
blocks withoptions(nomem)
oroptions(readonly)
to read from or write to private memory, which I believe refers to memory that is allocated from within theasm!
block and not accessible from the outside (and please correct me if I'm wrong on this):reference/src/inline-assembly.md
Lines 577 to 582 in c118ff6
Since we already allow this, this PR also documents it on the
nomem
andreadonly
options directly, in addition to the documentation that can be found lower on the same page. No functional changes intended.closes #1350
