This is very cool. On the topic of assembly, does anyone know of a language that is higher level than assembly, but retains the property that the output doesn't depend on the compiler or its flags?

I want it for low level CPU benchmarks and tests. Using C or assembly for those both suck.

I don't really know exactly how this would look (is the register allocator part of the spec?) but has anyone tried something like this?

That's not an inherent property of assemblers, and not the case in practice either.

Yes I know there are some minor caveats with pseudo-instructions and relocations but in general it is basically true. You can't wildly change the output without changing the source like you can with C.
