            Bug ID: 23042
           Summary: ARM inline assembly branch cannot reach "static"
                    functions
           Product: clang
           Version: 3.6
          Hardware: PC
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P

A brnach in ARM inline assembly cannot reach "static" functions. 

---------------------------------------------
static void foo(void) { .... }

void bar(void) 
{ 
   __asm ("b foo"); 
}
---------------------------------------------

linking this with arm-none-eabi-ld fail with: "undefined reference to 'foo'.
However, when using this, everythign works fine:

---------------------------------------------
void bar(void) 
{ 
   __asm ("b %0"::"i"(foo));
}
---------------------------------------------

Given that the inline assembler seems well integrated into the compiler, is
there a reason why this is different. Is it possible that __asm ("b foo") could
simply be considered a  shortcut form of __asm ("b %0"::"i"(foo)) ?
