Some registers cannot be used for input or output operands:

| Architecture | Unsupported register | Reason |
| ------------ | -------------------- | ------ |
| All | `sp` | The stack pointer must be restored to its original value at the end of an asm code block. |
| All | `bp` (x86), `x29` (AArch64), `x8` (RISC-V) | The frame pointer cannot be used as an input or output. |
| All | `bp` (x86), `x29` (AArch64), `x8` (RISC-V), `$fp` (LoongArch) | The frame pointer cannot be used as an input or output. |
| ARM | `r7` or `r11` | On ARM the frame pointer can be either `r7` or `r11` depending on the target. The frame pointer cannot be used as an input or output. |
| All | `si` (x86-32), `bx` (x86-64), `r6` (ARM), `x19` (AArch64), `x9` (RISC-V) | This is used internally by LLVM as a "base pointer" for functions with complex stack frames. |
| All | `si` (x86-32), `bx` (x86-64), `r6` (ARM), `x19` (AArch64), `x9` (RISC-V), `$s8` (LoongArch) | This is used internally by LLVM as a "base pointer" for functions with complex stack frames. |
| x86 | `ip` | This is the program counter, not a real register. |
| AArch64 | `xzr` | This is a constant zero register which can't be modified. |
| AArch64 | `x18` | This is an OS-reserved register on some AArch64 targets. |
| ARM | `pc` | This is the program counter, not a real register. |
| ARM | `r9` | This is an OS-reserved register on some ARM targets. |
| RISC-V | `x0` | This is a constant zero register which can't be modified. |
| RISC-V | `gp`, `tp` | These registers are reserved and cannot be used as inputs or outputs. |
| LoongArch | `$r0` or `$zero` | This is a constant zero register which can't be modified. |
| LoongArch | `$r2` or `$tp` | This is reserved for TLS. |
| LoongArch | `$r21` | This is reserved by the ABI. |

The frame pointer and base pointer registers are reserved for internal use by LLVM. While `asm!` statements cannot explicitly specify the use of reserved registers, in some cases LLVM will allocate one of these reserved registers for `reg` operands. Assembly code making use of reserved registers should be careful since `reg` operands may use the same registers.
