Considering that features are converted to global properties and
global properties are automatically applied to every new instance
of created CPU (at object_new() time), there is no point in
parsing cpu_model string every time a CPU created. So move
parsing outside CPU creation loop and do it only once.
Parsing also should be done before any CPU is created so that
features would affect the first CPU a well.

Currently CPUClass->parse_features() is used to parse -cpu
features string and set properties on created CPU instances.
But considering that features specified by -cpu apply to every
created CPU instance, it doesn't make sense to parse the same
features string for every CPU created. It also makes every target
that cares about parsing features string explicitly call
CPUClass->parse_features() parser, which gets in a way if we
consider using generic device_add for CPU hotplug as device_add
has not a clue about CPU specific hooks.
Turns out we can use global properties mechanism to set
properties on every created CPU instance for a given type. That
way it's possible to convert CPU features into a set of global
properties for CPU type specified by -cpu cpu_model and common
Device.device_post_init() will apply them to CPU of given type
automatically regardless whether it's manually created CPU or CPU
created with help of device_add.

Define a new MachineClass field ignore_memory_transaction_failures.
If this is flag is true then the CPU will ignore memory transaction
failures which should cause the CPU to take an exception due to an
access to an unassigned physical address; the transaction will
instead return zero (for a read) or be ignored (for a write). This
should be set only by legacy board models which rely on the old
RAZ/WI behaviour for handling devices that QEMU does not yet model.
New board models should instead use "unimplemented-device" for all
memory ranges where the guest will attempt to probe for a device that
QEMU doesn't implement and a stub device is required.
We need this for ARM boards, where we're about to implement support for
generating external aborts on memory transaction failures. Too many
of our legacy board models rely on the RAZ/WI behaviour and we
would break currently working guests when their "probe for device"
code provoked an external abort rather than a RAZ.

When emulating various SSE4.1 instructions such as pinsrd, the address
of a memory operand is computed without allowing for the 8-bit
immediate operand located after the memory operand, meaning that the
memory operand uses the wrong address in the case where it is
rip-relative. This patch adds the required rip_offset setting for
those instructions, so fixing some GCC test failures (13 in the gcc
testsuite in my GCC 6-based testing) when testing with a default CPU
setting enabling those instructions.

Commit 1f5c00cfdb8114c ("qom/cpu: move tlb_flush to cpu_common_reset")
moved the call to tlb_flush() from the target-specific reset handlers
into the common code qom/cpu.c file, and protected the call with
"#ifdef CONFIG_SOFTMMU" to avoid that it is called for linux-user
only targets. But since qom/cpu.c is common code, CONFIG_SOFTMMU is
*never* defined here, so the tlb_flush() was simply never executed
anymore. Fix it by introducing a wrapper for tlb_flush() in a file
that is re-compiled for each target, i.e. in translate-all.c.
Backports commit 2cd53943115be5118b5b2d4b80ee0a39c94c4f73 from qemu
Some code paths can lead to atomic accesses racing with memset()
on cpu->tb_jmp_cache, which can result in torn reads/writes
and is undefined behaviour in C11.
These torn accesses are unlikely to show up as bugs, but from code
inspection they seem possible. For example, tb_phys_invalidate does:
/* remove the TB from the hash list */
h = tb_jmp_cache_hash_func(tb->pc);
CPU_FOREACH(cpu) {
if (atomic_read(&cpu->tb_jmp_cache[h]) == tb) {
atomic_set(&cpu->tb_jmp_cache[h], NULL);
}
}
Here atomic_set might race with a concurrent memset (such as the
ones scheduled via "unsafe" async work, e.g. tlb_flush_page) and
therefore we might end up with a torn pointer (or who knows what,
because we are under undefined behaviour).
This patch converts parallel accesses to cpu->tb_jmp_cache to use
atomic primitives, thereby bringing these accesses back to defined
behaviour. The price to pay is to potentially execute more instructions
when clearing cpu->tb_jmp_cache, but given how infrequently they happen
and the small size of the cache, the performance impact I have measured
is within noise range when booting debian-arm.
Note that under "safe async" work (e.g. do_tb_flush) we could use memset
because no other vcpus are running. However I'm keeping these accesses
atomic as well to keep things simple and to avoid confusing analysis
tools such as ThreadSanitizer.

In BE32 mode, sub-word size watchpoints can fail to trigger because the
address of the access is adjusted in the opcode helpers before being
compared with the watchpoint registers. This patch reverses the address
adjustment before performing the comparison with the help of a new CPUClass
hook.
This version of the patch augments and tidies up comments a little.

We have never has the concept of global TLB entries which would avoid
the flush so we never actually use this flag. Drop it and make clear
that tlb_flush is the sledge-hammer it has always been.

Both the cpu->tb_jmp_cache and SoftMMU TLB structures are only used
when running TCG code so we might as well skip them for anything else.
Backports commit ba7d3d1858c257e39b47f7f12fa2016ffd960b11 from qemu
It is a common thing amongst the various cpu reset functions want to
flush the SoftMMU's TLB entries. This is done either by calling
tlb_flush directly or by way of a general memset of the CPU
structure (sometimes both).
This moves the tlb_flush call to the common reset function and
additionally ensures it is only done for the CONFIG_SOFTMMU case and
when tcg is enabled.
In some target cases we add an empty end_of_reset_fields structure to the
target vCPU structure so have a clear end point for any memset which
is resetting value in the structure before CPU_COMMON (where the TLB
structures are).
While this is a nice clean-up in general it is also a precursor for
changes coming to cputlb for MTTCG where the clearing of entries
can't be done arbitrarily across vCPUs. Currently the cpu_reset
function is usually called from the context of another vCPU as the
architectural power up sequence is run. By using the cputlb API
functions we can ensure the right behaviour in the future.

ThreadSanitizer picks up potential races although we already use
barriers to ensure things are in the correct order when processing exit
requests. For true C11 defined behaviour across threads we need to use
relaxed atomic_set/atomic_read semantics to reassure tsan.

Commit 57cb38b included qapi/error.h into qemu/osdep.h to get the
Error typedef. Since then, we've moved to include qemu/osdep.h
everywhere. Its file comment explains: "To avoid getting into
possible circular include dependencies, this file should not include
any other QEMU headers, with the exceptions of config-host.h,
compiler.h, os-posix.h and os-win32.h, all of which are doing a
similar job to this file and are under similar constraints."
qapi/error.h doesn't do a similar job, and it doesn't adhere to
similar constraints: it includes qapi-types.h. That's in excess of
100KiB of crap most .c files don't actually need.
Add the typedef to qemu/typedefs.h, and include that instead of
qapi/error.h. Include qapi/error.h in .c files that need it and don't
get it now. Include qapi-types.h in qom/object.h for uint16List.
Update scripts/clean-includes accordingly. Update it further to match
reality: replace config.h by config-target.h, add sysemu/os-posix.h,
sysemu/os-win32.h. Update the list of includes in the qemu/osdep.h
comment quoted above similarly.
This reduces the number of objects depending on qapi/error.h from "all
of them" to less than a third. Unfortunately, the number depending on
qapi-types.h shrinks only a little. More work is needed for that one.

When QEMU watchpoint matches, that is not definitely an architectural

is hardly possible to ignore it after throwing a TCG exception.
A special callback is introduced to check for architectural watchpoint
match before raising a TCG exception.
