+# Inline Assembly Safety Directive
+
+## Overview
+
+The `.inline_asm_mode` directive provides enhanced safety for inline assembly blocks by warning about potentially unsafe label usage. This directive helps prevent common errors where programmers create non-numeric labels in inline assembly that could be inadvertently jumped to from external code.
+
+## Syntax
+
+```assembly
+.inline_asm_mode strict   # Enable strict mode - warn on non-numeric labels
+.inline_asm_mode relaxed  # Disable strict mode (default)
+```
+
+## Description
+
+When `.inline_asm_mode strict` is active, the assembler will emit warnings for labels that are considered potentially unsafe for inline assembly:
+
+- **Safe labels** (no warnings):
+  - Numeric labels (e.g., `1:`, `42:`, `999:`)
+
+- **Unsafe labels** (warnings emitted):
+  - All non-numeric labels including:
+    - Global labels (e.g., `my_function:`, `loop:`)
+    - Local labels (e.g., `.L_loop`, `.L_end`)
+    - Special prefixed labels (e.g., `$symbol`, `__symbol`)
+    - Any label that doesn't start with a digit
+
+## Use Cases
+
+### Frontend Integration
+
+Compiler frontends can use this directive when generating inline assembly:
+
+```c++
+// Emitted by the compiler: .inline_asm_mode strict
+// C++ inline assembly example
+asm(
+    "1:\n"                    // Safe - numeric label
+    "  add %0, %1\n"
+    "  jne 1b\n"              // Safe - numeric jump
+    "exit:\n"                 // Warning - non-numeric label
+    : "=r"(result) : "r"(input));
+```
+// Emitted by the compiler: .inline_asm_mode relaxed
+
+### Assembly Development
+
+Assembly programmers can use this directive for safer inline assembly blocks:
+
+```assembly
+.inline_asm_mode strict
+
+# Safe labels - no warnings (numeric only)
+1:  # Loop start
+    inc %eax
+    dec %ebx
+    jnz 1b      # Jump back to label 1
+
+2:  # Alternative path
+    nop
+    jmp 3f      # Jump forward to label 3
+
+3:  # End label
+    ret
+
+# Unsafe labels - will generate warnings
+# unsafe_global:    # Warning: non-numeric label
+# .L_local:         # Warning: non-numeric label
+# $special:         # Warning: non-numeric label
+
+.inline_asm_mode relaxed
+```
+
+## Rationale
+
+Inline assembly blocks are often embedded within larger functions or modules. Non-numeric labels in these blocks can create several problems:
+
+1. **Naming conflicts**: Named labels may conflict with other symbols in the compilation unit
+2. **Unintended control flow**: External code might accidentally jump to named labels intended for internal use
+3. **Maintenance issues**: Named labels make inline assembly less self-contained
+4. **Assembly convention**: Numeric labels are the standard convention for temporary, local labels in assembly
+
+The strict mode helps identify these potential issues during compilation, encouraging developers to use safer numeric labels instead.
+
+## Error Handling
+
+Invalid directive usage will produce parse errors:
+
+```assembly
+.inline_asm_mode invalid_mode
+# Error: expected 'strict' or 'relaxed'
+
+.inline_asm_mode
+# Error: expected 'strict' or 'relaxed' after '.inline_asm_mode'
+```
+
+## Implementation Details
+
+- The directive affects only subsequent label definitions until changed
+- Default mode is `relaxed` (no additional warnings)
+- The directive state is maintained in the MC streamer
+- Warnings are emitted through the standard LLVM diagnostic system
+
+## Examples
+
+### Complete Example
+
+```assembly
+.text
+.globl example_function
+example_function:
+    # Regular function labels (outside inline asm) - no warnings
+
+    # Simulate inline assembly block with safety
+    .inline_asm_mode strict
+
+    # Only numeric labels are safe
+    1:  # Safe - numeric label
+        mov $1, %eax
+        test %eax, %eax
+        jz 2f
+
+    3:  # Safe - numeric label
+        inc %eax
+        cmp $10, %eax
+        jl 3b
+
+    2:  # Safe - numeric label
+        # End of safe inline block
+
+    # These would generate warnings
+    # .L_inline_start:      # Warning - non-numeric
+    # global_inline_label:  # Warning - non-numeric
+
+    .inline_asm_mode relaxed
+
+    # Back to normal mode
+    ret
+```
+
+## Integration with Build Systems
+
+Build systems can use standard LLVM warning controls to manage these diagnostics:
+
+```bash
+# Treat inline assembly warnings as errors
+llvm-mc -Werror=inline-asm-unsafe-label input.s
+
+# Suppress inline assembly warnings
+llvm-mc -Wno-inline-asm-unsafe-label input.s
+```
+
+Note: The specific warning flag names are implementation-dependent and may vary.
