I really didn't want to duplicate it, but it's very hard to find a
performant alternative. Is there any way we could accept duplication
only in the cases where an 'i' parameter is used? I don't have the
choice of using a Rust helper for 'i' parameters.
Perhaps one option could be to put the Rust code inside jump_label.h
and have the header file evaluate to either C or Rust depending on the
value of some #ifdefs?
#ifndef RUST_ASM
/* existing C code goes here */
#endif
#ifdef RUST_ASM
// rust code goes here
#endif
That way the duplication is all in a single file. It would also avoid
the need for duplicating the nop5 string, as the Rust case is still
going through the C preprocessor and can use the existing #define.
I'm also open to other alternatives. But I don't have infinite
resources to drive major language changes.
