But the problem with ROR/ROL is that any real use over shr/shl uses a hard
to model carry flag?
Ugh, I don't understand well, but the talk is about rotating bits, no low level
features like CF are requested (it doesn't mean very much if you rotate by
several bits).
Who talked about CF? I
Well, if we're going in that direction anyway:
Why not include all possible assembler instructions then ?
Because some of them are not designed for calculations. But ror/rol are.
Let's be serious. You must draw the line somewhere.
I think these instructions are so exotic, they are pollution

Is there high level operator/(inline)function for rotating bits?
No.
Am I supposed to implement rotating bits (like ror/rol in i386 asm)
by inline assembler or some ugly workarounds (shifts and or-s)?
Yes. I think there's already a
