What are some machine language instructions that cannot be directly implemented with high-level programming languages such as C, C++, and Java?

Machine instructions like interrupt handling, privileged mode operations, and direct memory access (DMA) are often inaccessible in high-level languages. How do compilers and OS kernels bridge this gap?
