Restrict the size of code_gen_buffer to 2GB on ppc64, which
lets us assert that everything is reachable with addis+addi
from tb_ret_addr. This lets us use a max of 4 insns for goto_tb
instead of 7.
Emit the indirect branch portion of goto_tb up front, which
means we only have to update two insns to update any link.
With a 64-bit store, we can update the link atomically, which
may be required in future.
Backports commit 5bfd75a35c11dd3aa61c73d0d2cd88137c31519c from qemu
Changing the prologue to the beginning of the code_gen_buffer
changes the direction of the "return" branch. Need to change
the logic to match.
Backports commit 70f897bdc4ce4101ec008317d43090f532bfb07d from qemu
Implement real ext_i32_i64 and extu_i32_i64 ops. They ensure that a
32-bit value is always converted to a 64-bit value and not propagated
through the register allocator or the optimizer.
Backports commit 4f2331e5b67af8172419eb1c8db510b497b30a7b from qemu
The addition of MO_AMASK means that places that used inverted masks
need to be changed to use positive masks, and places that failed to
mask the intended bits need updating.
Backports commit 2b7ec66f025263a5331f37d5ad78a625496fd7bd from qemu
The extra information is not yet used but it is now available.
This requires minor changes through all of the tcg backends.
Backports commit 3972ef6f830d65e9bacbd31257abedc055fd6dc8 from qemu
At the tcg opcode level, not at the tcg-op.h generator level.
This requires minor changes through all of the tcg backends,
but none of the cpu translators.
Backports commit 59227d5d45bb3c31dc2118011691c35b3c00879c from qemu
This is less about improved type checking than enabling a
subsequent change to the representation of labels.
