Basic @code{asm} provides no
mechanism to provide different assembler strings for different dialects.
-Here is an example of basic @code{asm} for i386:
+Basic @code{asm} statements do not perform an implicit "memory" clobber
+(@pxref{Clobbers}). Also, there is no implicit clobbering of @emph{any}
+registers, so (other than in @code{naked} functions which follow the ABI
+rules) changed registers must be restored to their original value before
+exiting the @code{asm}. While this behavior has not always been
+documented, GCC has worked this way since at least v2.95.3.
+@strong{Warning:} This "clobber nothing" behavior may be different than how
+other compilers treat basic @code{asm}, since the C standards for the
+@code{asm} statement provide no guidance regarding these semantics. As a
+result, @code{asm} statements that work correctly on other compilers may not
+work correctly with GCC (and vice versa), even though they both compile
+without error.
+
+Future versions of GCC may change basic @code{asm} to clobber memory and
+perhaps some (or all) registers. This change may fix subtle problems with
+existing @code{asm} statements. However it may break or slow down ones
+that were working correctly. To ``future-proof'' your asm against possible
+changes to basic @code{asm}'s semantics, use extended @code{asm}.
+
+You can use @option{-Wbasic-asm} to locate basic @code{asm}
+statements that may need changes, and refer to
+@uref{https://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/ConvertBasicAsmToExtended, How to convert
+from basic asm to extended asm} for information about how to perform the
+conversion.
+
+Here is an example of top-level basic @code{asm} for i386 that defines an
+asm macro. That macro is then invoked from within a function using
+extended @code{asm}:
+
@example
-/* Note that this code will not compile with -masm=intel */
-#define DebugBreak() asm("int $3")
+/* Define macro at file scope with basic asm. */
+/* Add macro parameter p to eax. */
+asm (".macro test p\n\t"
+ "addl $\\p, %eax\n\t"
+ ".endm");

+/* Use macro in function using extended asm. It needs
+ the "cc" clobber since the flags are changed and uses
+ the "a" constraint since it modifies eax. */

+When used inside of functions, basic @code{asm} can result in unexpected and
