Paths through the softmmu code during code generation now need to be audited
to check for double locking of tb_lock. In particular, VMEXIT can take tb_lock
through cpu_vmexit -> cpu_x86_update_cr4 -> tlb_flush.
To avoid this, split VMEXIT delivery in two parts, similar to what is done with
exceptions. cpu_vmexit only records the VMEXIT exit code and information, and
cc->do_interrupt can then deliver it when it is safe to take the lock.
Backports commit 10cde894b63146139f981857e4eedf756fa53dcb from qemu
This suppresses the incorrect warning when forcing MTTCG for x86
guests on x86 hosts. A future patch will still warn when
TARGET_SUPPORT_MTTCG hasn't been defined for the guest (which is still
pending for x86).
Backports commit 72c1701f62e8d44eb24a0583a958edc280105455 from qemu
CPU runnability checks and CPU model expansion have slightly
different requirements. Document the steps involved in loading a
CPU model and realizing a CPU, so their requirements and purpose
are clearly defined.
This patch doesn't change any implementation. It just add
comments, rename the x86_cpu_load_features() function for clarity
(so it won't be confused with x86_cpu_load_def()), and move
x86_cpu_filter_features() closer to it.
Backports commit b8d834a00fa3ed4dad7d371e1a00938a126a54a0 from qemu
This makes qemu_strtosz(), qemu_strtosz_mebi() and
qemu_strtosz_metric() similar to qemu_strtoi64(), except negative
values are rejected.
Backports commit f17fd4fdf0df3d2f3444399d04c38d22b9a3e1b7 from qemu
Change the qemu_strtosz() & friends to return -EINVAL when @endptr is
null and the conversion doesn't consume the string completely.
Matches how qemu_strtol() & friends work.
Only test_qemu_strtosz_simple() passes a null @endptr. No functional
change there, because its conversion consumes the string.
Simplify callers that use @endptr only to fail when it doesn't point
to '\0' to pass a null @endptr instead.
Backports commit 4fcdf65ae2c00ae69f7625f26ed41f37d77b403c from qemu
To parse numbers with metric suffixes, we use
qemu_strtosz_suffix_unit(nptr, &eptr, QEMU_STRTOSZ_DEFSUFFIX_B, 1000)
Capture this in a new function for legibility:
qemu_strtosz_metric(nptr, &eptr)
Replace test_qemu_strtosz_suffix_unit() by test_qemu_strtosz_metric().
Rename qemu_strtosz_suffix_unit() to do_strtosz() and give it internal
linkage.
Backports commit d2734d2629266006b0413433778474d5801c60be from qemu
When CPU vendor is set to AMD, the AMD feature alias bits on
CPUID[0x80000001].EDX are already automatically copied from CPUID[1].EDX
on x86_cpu_realizefn(). When CPU vendor is Intel, those bits are
reserved and should be zero. On either case, those bits shouldn't be set
in the CPU model table.
Commit 726a8ff68677d8d5fba17eb0ffb85076bfb598dc removed those
bits from most CPU models, but the Opteron_* entries still have
them. Remove the alias bits from Opteron_* too.
Add an assert() to x86_register_cpudef_type() to ensure we don't
make the same mistake again.

Backports commit f77543772dcd38fa438470d9b80bafbd3a3ebbd7 from qemu
We've currently got 18 architectures in QEMU, and thus 18 target-xxx
folders in the root folder of the QEMU source tree. More architectures
(e.g. RISC-V, AVR) are likely to be included soon, too, so the main
folder of the QEMU sources slowly gets quite overcrowded with the
target-xxx folders.
To disburden the main folder a little bit, let's move the target-xxx
folders into a dedicated target/ folder, so that target-xxx/ simply
becomes target/xxx/ instead.
