Commit 1f5c00cfdb8114c ("qom/cpu: move tlb_flush to cpu_common_reset")
moved the call to tlb_flush() from the target-specific reset handlers
into the common code qom/cpu.c file, and protected the call with
"#ifdef CONFIG_SOFTMMU" to avoid that it is called for linux-user
only targets. But since qom/cpu.c is common code, CONFIG_SOFTMMU is
*never* defined here, so the tlb_flush() was simply never executed
anymore. Fix it by introducing a wrapper for tlb_flush() in a file
that is re-compiled for each target, i.e. in translate-all.c.

Allocating an arbitrarily-sized array of tbs results in either
(a) a lot of memory wasted or (b) unnecessary flushes of the code
cache when we run out of TB structs in the array.
An obvious solution would be to just malloc a TB struct when needed,
and keep the TB array as an array of pointers (recall that tb_find_pc()
needs the TB array to run in O(log n)).
Perhaps a better solution, which is implemented in this patch, is to
allocate TB's right before the translated code they describe. This
results in some memory waste due to padding to have code and TBs in
separate cache lines--for instance, I measured 4.7% of padding in the
used portion of code_gen_buffer when booting aarch64 Linux on a
host with 64-byte cache lines. However, it can allow for optimizations
in some host architectures, since TCG backends could safely assume that
the TB and the corresponding translated code are very close to each
other in memory. See this message by rth for a detailed explanation:

Backports commit 6e3b2bfd6af488a896f7936e99ef160f8f37e6f2 from qemu
Instead of exporting goto_ptr directly to TCG frontends, export
tcg_gen_lookup_and_goto_ptr(), which calls goto_ptr with the pointer
returned by the lookup_tb_ptr() helper. This is the only use case
we have for goto_ptr and lookup_tb_ptr, so having this function is
very convenient. Furthermore, it trivially allows us to avoid calling
the lookup helper if goto_ptr is not implemented by the backend.

We know there will be cases where MTTCG won't work until additional work
is done in the front/back ends to support. It will however be useful to
be able to turn it on.
As a result MTTCG will default to off unless the combination is
supported. However the user can turn it on for the sake of testing.

In BE32 mode, sub-word size watchpoints can fail to trigger because the
address of the access is adjusted in the opcode helpers before being
compared with the watchpoint registers. This patch reverses the address
adjustment before performing the comparison with the help of a new CPUClass
hook.
This version of the patch augments and tidies up comments a little.

Device models often have to perform multiple access to a single
memory region that is known in advance, but would to use "DMA-style"
functions instead of address_space_map/unmap. This can happen
for example when the data has to undergo endianness conversion.
Introduce a new data structure to cache the result of
address_space_translate without forcing usage of a host address
like address_space_map does.

Several helpers call helper_raise_exception directly, which requires
in turn that their callers have performed save_state. The new function
allows a TCG return address to be passed in so that we can restore
PC + NPC + flags data from that.
This fixes a bug in the usage of helper_check_align, whose callers had
not been calling save_state. It fixes another bug in which the divide
helpers used GETPC at a level other than the direct callee from TCG.
This allows the translator to avoid save_state prior to SAVE, RESTORE,
and FLUSHW instructions.

Allow qemu to build on 32-bit hosts without 64-bit atomic ops.
Even if we only allow 32-bit hosts to multi-thread emulate 32-bit
guests, we still need some way to handle the 32-bit guest using a
64-bit atomic operation. Do so by dropping back to single-step.

Force the use of cmpxchg16b on x86_64.
Wikipedia suggests that only very old AMD64 (circa 2004) did not have

If we truely care about these, then we could check this at startup time
and then avoid executing paths that use it.

Probe for whether the specified guest write access is permitted.

Otherwise the function will return, and there will be a valid

Support target CPUs having a page size which isn't knownn
at compile time. To use this, the CPU implementation should:
* define TARGET_PAGE_BITS_VARY
* not define TARGET_PAGE_BITS
* define TARGET_PAGE_BITS_MIN to the smallest value it
might possibly want for TARGET_PAGE_BITS
* call set_preferred_target_page_bits() in its realize
function to indicate the actual preferred target page
size for the CPU (and report any error from it)
In CONFIG_USER_ONLY, the CPU implementation should continue
to define TARGET_PAGE_BITS appropriately for the guest
OS page size.
Machines which want to take advantage of having the page
size something larger than TARGET_PAGE_BITS_MIN must
set the MachineClass minimum_page_bits field to a value
which they guarantee will be no greater than the preferred
page size for any CPU they create.
Note that changing the target page size by setting
minimum_page_bits is a migration compatibility break
for that machine.
For debugging purposes, attempts to use TARGET_PAGE_SIZE
before it has been finally confirmed will assert.
Backports commit 20bccb82ff3ea09bcb7c4ee226d3160cab15f7da from qemu

Removing dependency can help to make TARGET_PAGE_BITS

Setting skip_dump on a MemoryRegion allows us to modify one specific
code path, but the restriction we're trying to address encompasses
more than that. If we have a RAM MemoryRegion backed by a physical
device, it not only restricts our ability to dump that region, but
also affects how we should manipulate it. Here we recognize that
MemoryRegions do not change to sometimes allow dumps and other times
not, so we replace setting the skip_dump flag with a new initializer
so that we know exactly the type of region to which we're applying
this behavior.

Rather than rely on recursion during the middle of register allocation,
lower indirect registers to loads and stores off the indirect base into
plain temps.
For an x86_64 host, with sufficient registers, this results in identical
code, modulo the actual register assignments.
For an i686 host, with insufficient registers, this means that temps can
be (temporarily) spilled to the stack in order to satisfy an allocation.
This as opposed to the possibility of not being able to spill, to allocate
a register for the indirect base, in order to perform a spill.

This patch replaces get_ticks_per_sec() calls with the macro
NANOSECONDS_PER_SECOND. Also, as there are no callers, get_ticks_per_sec()
is then removed. This replacement improves the readability and

For example,
timer_mod(fdctrl->result_timer,
qemu_clock_get_ns(QEMU_CLOCK_VIRTUAL) + (get_ticks_per_sec() / 50));
NANOSECONDS_PER_SECOND makes it obvious that qemu_clock_get_ns
matches the unit of the expression on the right side of the plus.
