Thanks Chip I shall do so. Here is what I would do please tell me if this will
work. Andrew really speaking I don't care what the assembly program does all I
need is that I transition from executing from a regular C code to pure assembly
and back. Please don't ask me why I want to do that ... :)
Thanks
Ananda
File 1:
Junk.c:
EFI_STATUS

UefiMain (

Bunk.asm
LEAF_ENTRY RunAsmCode, _TEXT$00

Inline assembly is not supported for 64-bit code.
You would need to put your assembly code in a separate file.
