Is it possible to embed LLVM IR directly into C++ source when using clang?

In Clang, is there a way to embed LLVM IR directly into C++? For example, can a GNU-style asm statement contain LLVM IR instead of machine code?

More specifically, I'm adding some experimental intrinsics to LLVM, and would like to generate calls to them from C++. Do I have to modify Clang to do this, or is there a shortcut?

Thanks. I'll add a `__builtin_` function that expands to my intrinsic. – Arch D. Robison Apr 22 '15 at 23:02
