We already handle this in the backends, and the lifetime datum
for the TCGOp is already large enough.
Backports commit 1df3caa946e08b387511dfba3a37d78910e51796 from qemu
The x86 vector instruction set is extremely irregular. With newer
editions, Intel has filled in some of the blanks. However, we don't
get many 64-bit operations until SSE4.2, introduced in 2009.
The subsequent edition was for AVX1, introduced in 2011, which added
three-operand addressing, and adjusts how all instructions should be
encoded.
Given the relatively narrow 2 year window between possible to support
and desirable to support, and to vastly simplify code maintainence,
I am only planning to support AVX1 and later cpus.

Opcodes are added for scalar and vector shifts, but considering the
varied semantics of these do not expose them to the front ends. Do
go ahead and provide them in case they are needed for backend expansion.

We had two fields specific to INDEX_op_call. Rename these and

With no fixed array allocation, we can't overflow a buffer.
This will be important as optimizations related to host vectors
may expand the number of ops used.
Use QTAILQ to link the ops together.

Using the offset of a temporary, relative to TCGContext, rather than
its index means that we don't use 0. That leaves offset 0 free for
a NULL representation without having to leave index 0 unused.

When we used structures for TCGv_*, we needed a macro in order to
perform a comparison. Now that we use pointers, this is just clutter
Backports commit 11f4e8f8bfaa2caaab24bef6bbbb8a0205015119 from qemu
The GET and MAKE functions weren't really specific enough.
We now have a full complement of functions that convert exactly
between temporaries, arguments, tcgv pointers, and indices.
The target/sparc change is also a bug fix, which would have affected
a host that defines TCG_TARGET_HAS_extr[lh]_i64_i32, i.e. MIPS64.

Transform TCGv_* to an "argument" or a temporary.
For now, an argument is simply the temporary index.

While we're touching many of the lines anyway, adjust the naming

should be used.

Rather than have a separate buffer of 10*max_ops entries,
give each opcode 10 entries. The result is actually a bit
smaller and should have slightly more cache locality.

It's not even clear what the interface REG and VAL32 were supposed to mean.
All uses had REG = 0 and VAL32 was the bitset assigned to the destination.

A new shared header tcg-pool.inc.c adds new_pool_label,
for registering a tcg_target_ulong to be emitted after
the generated code, plus relocation data to install a
pointer to the data.
A new pointer is added to the TCGContext, so that we
dump the constant pool as data, not code.

Dispense with TCGBackendData, as it has never been used for more than
holding a single pointer. Use a define in the cpu/tcg-target.h to
signal requirement for TCGLabelQemuLdst, so that we can drop the no-op
tcg-be-null.h stubs. Rename tcg-be-ldst.h to tcg-ldst.inc.c.

boolean test. Replace the tb_set_jmp_target1 ifdef with an unconditional
function tb_target_set_jmp_target.
While we're touching all backends, add a parameter for tb->tc_ptr;
we're going to need it shortly for some backends.
Move tb_set_jmp_target and tb_add_jump from exec-all.h to cpu-exec.c.

For a 64-bit ILP32 host, aligning to sizeof(long) is not enough.
Guess the minimum for any host is 8, as that covers uint64_t.
Qemu doesn't use a host long double or host vectors, except in
extremely limited circumstances.
Fixes a bus error for a sparc v8plus host.

Coldfire uses float64, but 680x0 use floatx80.
This patch introduces the use of floatx80 internally
and enables 680x0 80bits FPU.
Backports commit f83311e4764f1f25a8abdec2b32c64483be1759b from qemu
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.

We'll be using the memory ordering definitions to define values for

dependencies just move these types into their own minimal header.

The typedefs we use for the TCGv_i32, TCGv_i64 and TCGv_ptr
types are somewhat confusing, because we define them as
pointers to structs, but the structs themselves are never
defined. Explain in the comments a bit more clearly why
this is OK and what is going on under the hood.
Backports commit a40d4701bc9f6e6a3bbfb7b4fbe756a5b72b5df1 from qemu
softmmu requires more functions to be thread-safe, because translation
blocks can be invalidated from e.g. notdirty callbacks. Probably the
same holds for user-mode emulation, it's just that no one has ever
tried to produce a coherent locking there.
This patch will guide the introduction of more tb_lock and tb_unlock
calls for system emulation.
Note that after this patch some (most) of the mentioned functions are
still called outside tb_lock/tb_unlock. The next one will rectify this.

Force the use of cmpxchg16b on x86_64.
Wikipedia suggests that only very old AMD64 (circa 2004) did not have
this instruction. Further, it's required by Windows 8 so no new cpus
will ever omit it.
If we truely care about these, then we could check this at startup time
and then avoid executing paths that use it.
