options(nostack) could be used here.

This doesn't seem to make any difference in the generated code.
Along the same lines, I could use option(readonly) in the syscall example, but I don't think doing so adds any value. These are supposed to be very simple examples, and people will have the full RFC available for reference.

I'd like to hold the blog post back a bit while we sort out the various ICEs with the new inline asm (#72570, #72484). At least until we get fixes for those into nightly. |

@Amanieu Seems reasonable to me. And thanks for the feedback; I've updated the post. |
|
@nikomatsakis Thanks for reviewing and approving. @Amanieu Please post here as soon as you're ready for this to be posted. |
|
Please ping me before merging this PR, thanks, =) |

@Amanieu It looks like both of the issues you referenced have been fixed. Are there any other things you want to wait for before this gets posted? |
|
I think it should be fine to post now. There are a few pending issues but they are only related to diagnostics (rust-lang/rust#72825 and rust-lang/rust#40555) and won't affect usability. |
|
@nikomatsakis Any reservations about posting? |
|
Nope, let's post. |
