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.

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
The TCG code is quite performance sensitive, but at the same time can
also be quite tricky. That is why asserts that can be enabled with the
--enable-debug-tcg configure option.
This used to work the following way:
| #include "config.h"
|
| ...
|
| #if !defined(CONFIG_DEBUG_TCG) && !defined(NDEBUG)
| /* define it to suppress various consistency checks (faster) */
| #define NDEBUG
| #endif
|
| ...
|
| #include <assert.h>
Since commit 757e725b (tcg: Clean up includes) "config.h" as been
replaced by "qemu/osdep.h" which itself includes <assert.h>. As a
consequence the assertions are always enabled, even when using
--disable-debug-tcg, causing a performance regression, especially on
targets with many registers. For instance on qemu-system-ppc the
speed difference is about 15%.
tcg_debug_assert is controlled directly by CONFIG_DEBUG_TCG and already
uses in some places. This patch replaces all the calls to assert into
calss to tcg_debug_assert.

The MIPS TCG backend is the only one to have
tcg_target_reg_alloc_order[] elements of type TCGReg rather than int.
This resulted in commit 91478cefaaf2 ("tcg: Allocate indirect_base
temporaries in a different order") breaking the build on MIPS since the
type differed from indirect_reg_alloc_order[]:
tcg/tcg.c:1725:44: error: pointer type mismatch in conditional expression [-Werror]
order = rev ? indirect_reg_alloc_order : tcg_target_reg_alloc_order;
^
Make it an array of ints to fix the build and match other architectures.

qemu-log: dfilter-ise exec, out_asm, op and opt_op
This ensures the code generation debug code will honour -dfilter if set.
For the "exec" tracing I've added a new inline macro for efficiency's
sake.

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.

Move inline functions out of qemu-common.h and into new files (e.g.
include/qemu/bcd.h)

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
Commit 757e725b58c57d added a number of #include "qemu/osdep.h"
files to the tcg-target.c files (as they were named at the time).
These are unnecessary because these files are not standalone C
files, and the tcg/tcg.c file which includes them will have
already included osdep.h on their behalf. Remove the unneeded
include directives.
Backports commit c3b7f66800fbf9f47fddbcf2e2cd30ea932e0aae 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.

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.
