Backports commit be7773268d98176489483a315d3e2323cb0615b9 from qemu
Two or more threads might race while invalidating the same TB. We currently
do not check for this at all despite taking tb_lock, which means we would
wrongly invalidate the same TB more than once. This bug has actually been
hit by users: I recently saw a report on IRC, although I have yet to see
the corresponding test case.
Fix this by using qht_remove as the synchronization point; if it fails,
that means the TB has already been invalidated, and therefore there
is nothing left to do in tb_phys_invalidate.
Note that this solution works now that we still have tb_lock, and will
continue working once we remove tb_lock.
Backports commit cc689485ee3e9dca05765326ee8fd619a6ec48f0 from qemu
This is identical for each target. So, move the initialization to
common code. Move the variable itself out of tcg_ctx and name it
cpu_env to minimize changes within targets.
This also means we can remove tcg_global_reg_new_{ptr,i32,i64},
since there are no longer global-register temps created by targets.
Backports commit 1c2adb958fc07e5b3e81ed21b801c04a15f41f4f from qemu
This enables parallel TCG code generation. However, we do not take
advantage of it yet since tb_lock is still held during tb_gen_code.
In user-mode we use a single TCG context; see the documentation
added to tcg_region_init for the rationale.
Note that targets do not need any conversion: targets initialize a
TCGContext (e.g. defining TCG globals), and after this initialization
has finished, the context is cloned by the vCPU threads, each of
them keeping a separate copy.
TCG threads claim one entry in tcg_ctxs[] by atomically increasing
n_tcg_ctxs. Do not be too annoyed by the subsequent atomic_read's
of that variable and tcg_ctxs; they are there just to play nice with
analysis tools such as thread sanitizer.
Note that we do not allocate an array of contexts (we allocate
an array of pointers instead) because when tcg_context_init
is called, we do not know yet how many contexts we'll use since
the bool behind qemu_tcg_mttcg_enabled() isn't set yet.
Previous patches folded some TCG globals into TCGContext. The non-const
globals remaining are only set at init time, i.e. before the TCG
threads are spawned. Here is a list of these set-at-init-time globals

Backports commit 3468b59e18b179bc63c7ce934de912dfa9596122 from qemu
This is groundwork for supporting multiple TCG contexts.
The naive solution here is to split code_gen_buffer statically
among the TCG threads; this however results in poor utilization
if translation needs are different across TCG threads.
What we do here is to add an extra layer of indirection, assigning
regions that act just like pages do in virtual memory allocation.
(BTW if you are wondering about the chosen naming, I did not want
to use blocks or pages because those are already heavily used in QEMU).
We use a global lock to serialize allocations as well as statistics
reporting (we now export the size of the used code_gen_buffer with
tcg_code_size()). Note that for the allocator we could just use
a counter and atomic_inc; however, that would complicate the gathering
of tcg_code_size()-like stats. So given that the region operations are
not a fast path, a lock seems the most reasonable choice.
The effectiveness of this approach is clear after seeing some numbers.
I used the bootup+shutdown of debian-arm with '-tb-size 80' as a benchmark.
Note that I'm evaluating this after enabling per-thread TCG (which
is done by a subsequent commit).

Note that having n_tcg_ctxs is unnecessary. However, it is
convenient to have it, since it will simplify iterating over the

or having to check with ifdef's for usermode/softmmu.

Backports commit b1311c4acf503dc9c1a310cc40b64f05b08833dc from qemu
Since commit 6e3b2bfd6 ("tcg: allocate TB structs before the
corresponding translated code") we are not fully utilizing
code_gen_buffer for translated code, and therefore are
incorrectly reporting the amount of translated code as well as
the average host TB size. Address this by:
- Making the conscious choice of misreporting the total translated code;
doing otherwise would mislead users into thinking "-tb-size" is not
honoured.
- Expanding tb_tree_stats to accurately count the bytes of translated code on
the host, and using this for reporting the average tb host size,
as well as the expansion ratio.
In the future we might want to consider reporting the accurate numbers for
the total translated code, together with a "bookkeeping/overhead" field to
account for the TB structs.
Backports commit f19c6cc6fc356dab7a766b471ec5eb3058f0afc1 from qemu
We don't really free anything in this function anymore; we just remove
the TB from the binary search tree.
Backports commit be1e01171b556807198c84feac7cf4bca0d904c2 from qemu
This is a prerequisite for supporting multiple TCG contexts, since
we will have threads generating code in separate regions of
code_gen_buffer.
For this we need a new field (.size) in struct tb_tc to keep
track of the size of the translated code. This field uses a size_t
to avoid adding a hole to the struct, although really an unsigned
int would have been enough.
The comparison function we use is optimized for the common case:
insertions. Profiling shows that upon booting debian-arm, 98%
of comparisons are between existing tb's (i.e. a->size and b->size
are both !0), which happens during insertions (and removals, but
those are rare). The remaining cases are lookups. From reading the glib
sources we see that the first key is always the lookup key. However,
the code does not assume this to always be the case because this
behaviour is not guaranteed in the glib docs. However, we embed
this knowledge in the code as a branch hint for the compiler.
Note that tb_free does not free space in the code_gen_buffer anymore,
since we cannot easily know whether the tb is the last one inserted
in code_gen_buffer. The next patch in this series renames tb_free
to tb_remove to reflect this.
Performance-wise, lookups in tb_find_pc are the same as before:
O(log n). However, insertions are O(log n) instead of O(1), which
results in a small slowdown when booting debian-arm:

Convert all existing readers of tb->cflags to tb_cflags, so that we
use atomic_read and therefore avoid undefined behaviour in C11.
Note that the remaining setters/getters of the field are protected
by tb_lock, and therefore do not need conversion.
Luckily all readers access the field via 'tb->cflags' (so no foo.cflags,
bar->cflags in the code base), which makes the conversion easily
scriptable:
FILES=$(git grep 'tb->cflags' target include/exec/gen-icount.h \
accel/tcg/translator.c | cut -f1 -d':' | sort | uniq)
perl -pi -e 's/([^.>])tb->cflags/$1tb_cflags(tb)/g' $FILES
perl -pi -e 's/([a-z->.]*)(->|\.)tb->cflags/tb_cflags($1$2tb)/g' $FILES
Then manually fixed the few errors that checkpatch reported.
Compile-tested for all targets.
