Wow! Thanks, thats look good.  Meanwhile i write own version which is
look like:

    inline int _lrotl
        (
        int iValue,
        int iRotate
        )
    {
        asm
        (
        "rol %%cl, %0 \n"
        : "=r" (iValue)
        : "c" (iRotate), "0" (iValue)
        );

        return  iValue;
    }

So my questions is:

>   asm("roll %b2, %0"
a) That is  %b2  mean?

>       : "0" (n), "ci" (c));
b)  That is  "ci"  mean?
