I'm working on an HPUX system using GCC. I'm trying to compile some
code that includes a header that uses the _asm function. The linker
(ld) fails to resolve the function. If I compile a test file with cc,
it is able to compile the _asm function; gcc leaves it in the .s file
as an import symbol which ld isn't resolving. Is there a library I'm
not including for the gcc compile or is this an issue gcc can't
handle?

This is for an HP-UX 10.20 PA_RISK system and the module has to be
built in the kernel so it all started with the ld symbol check when
the kernel was being rebuilt.

TIA!
