The global is only ever read for one insn; we can just as well
use a load from env instead and generate the same code. This
also allows us to indicate the the associated helpers do not
touch TCG globals.
Backports commit e86ceb0d652baa5738e05a59ee0e7989dafbeaa1 from qemu
Some architectures (e.g. ARMv8) need the address which is aligned
to a size more than the size of the memory access.
To support such check it's enough the current costless alignment
check implementation in QEMU, but we need to support
an alignment size specifying.
Backports commit 1f00b27f17518a1bcb4cedca49eaec96a4d560bd from qemu
Information is tracked inside the TCGContext structure, and later used
by tracing events with the 'tcg' and 'vcpu' properties.
The 'cpu' field is used to check tracing of translation-time
events ("*_trans"). The 'tcg_env' field is used to pass it to
execution-time events ("*_exec").
Backports commit 7c2550432abe62f53e6df878ceba6ceaf71f0e7e from qemu
TCG backends do not need most of exec-all.h; extract what they actually
need to a separate file or move it directly to tcg.h. The next patch
will stop including exec-all.h from everywhere.
Backports commit 00f6da6a1a5d1ce085334eccbb50ec899ceed513 from qemu
The value returned from tcg_qemu_tb_exec() is the value passed to the
corresponding tcg_gen_exit_tb() at translation time of the last TB
attempted to execute. It is a little confusing to store it in a variable
named 'next_tb'. In fact, it is a combination of 4-byte aligned pointer
and additional information in its two least significant bits. Break it
down right away into two variables named 'last_tb' and 'tb_exit' which
are a pointer to the last TB attempted to execute and the TB exit
reason, correspondingly. This simplifies the code and improves its
readability.
Correct a misleading documentation comment for tcg_qemu_tb_exec() and
fix logging in cpu_tb_exec(). Also rename a misleading 'next_tb' in
another couple of places.
Backports commit 819af24b9c1e95e6576f1cefd32f4d6bf56dfa56 from qemu
Briefly describe in a comment how direct block chaining is done. It
should help in understanding of the following data fields.
Rename some fields in TranslationBlock and TCGContext structures to
better reflect their purpose (dropping excessive 'tb_' prefix in
TranslationBlock but keeping it in TCGContext):
tb_next_offset => jmp_reset_offset
tb_jmp_offset => jmp_insn_offset
tb_next => jmp_target_addr
jmp_next => jmp_list_next
jmp_first => jmp_list_first
Avoid using a magic constant as an invalid offset which is used to
indicate that there's no n-th jump generated.
Backports commit f309101c26b59641fc1aa8fb2a98a5441cdaea03 from qemu
Add tcg_set_insn_param as a mechanism to modify an insn
parameter after emiting the insn. This is useful for icount
and also for embedding fault information for a specific insn.
Backports commit 1d41478fd428e01f057d3248292e4cdcdb048523 from qemu
My later debugging patches need access to the origin PC which is held in
the TranslationBlock structure. Pass down the whole structure as it also
holds the information about the code start point.
Backports commit 5bd2ec3d7b47b2252745882795d79aef36380fb7 from qemu
The target-dependant type TCGv must be defined in "tcg/tcg.h" before
including the tracing helper wrappers in "tcg/tcg-op.h".
It also makes more sense to define it here, where other TCG types are
defined too.
Backports commit 5d4e1a1081d3f1ec2908ff0eaebe312389971ab4 from qemu
Adds the 'TCGv_env' type for pointers to 'CPUArchState' objects. The
tracing infrastructure later needs to differentiate between regular
pointers and pointers to vCPUs.
Also changes all targets to use the new 'TCGv_env' type instead of the
generic 'TCGv_ptr'. As of now, the change is merely cosmetic ('TCGv_env'
translates into 'TCGv_ptr'), but that could change in the future to
enforce the difference.
Note that a 'TCGv_env' type (for 'CPUState') is not added, since all
helpers currently receive the architecture-specific
pointer ('CPUArchState').
Backports commit 1bcea73e13b2b059d0cb3301aeaca43e5656ef57 from qemu
Rename the per-architecture tcg-target.c files to tcg-target.inc.c.
This makes it clearer that they are not intended to be standalone
C files, but are instead #included into another source file.
Backports commit ce151109813e2770fd3cee2f37bfa2cdd01a12b9 from qemu
Since we've not got liveness analysis for indirect bases,
placing them at the end of the call-saved registers makes
it more likely that it'll stay live.

That is, global_mem registers whose base is another global_mem
register, rather than a fixed register.
Backports commit b3915dbbdcdb2e04753f3d34a1b0865eea005069 from qemu
All references to cpu_T are done with a constant index. It aids
readability to decompose the array into two scalar variables.
Backports commit 1d1cc4d0f481b2939c7e9f6606e571b2fc81971a from qemu
Having segs[].base as a register significantly improves code
generation for real and protected modes, particularly for TBs
that have multiple memory references where the segment base
can be held in a hard register through the TB.
