At present, the "average" guestimate of TB size is way too small, leading
to many unused entries in the pre-allocated TB array. For a guest with 1GB
ram, we're currently allocating 256MB for the array.
Survey arm, alpha, aarch64, ppc, sparc, i686, x86_64 guests running on
x86_64 and ppc64 hosts and select a new average. The size of the array
drops to 81MB with no more flushing than before.
Backports commit 126d89e8cdfa3be15d51f76906eaccbcd0023f98 from qemu
We currently pre-compute an worst case code size for any TB, which
works out to be 122kB. Since the average TB size is near 1kB, this
wastes quite a lot of storage.
Instead, check for overflow in between generating code for each opcode.
The overhead of the check isn't measurable and wastage is minimized.

It is no longer used, so tidy up everything reached by it.
This includes the gen_opc_* arrays, the search_pc parameter
and the inline gen_intermediate_code_internal functions.

In this case, QEMU might longjmp out of cpu-exec.c and miss the final
cleanup in cpu_exec_nocache. Do this manually through a new compile
flag.
Backports commit d8a499f17ee5f05407874f29f69f0e3e3198a853 from qemu
The gen_opc_* arrays are already redundant with the data stored in
the insn_start arguments. Transition restore_state_to_opc to use
data from the latter.
Backports commit bad729e272387de7dbfa3ec4319036552fc6c107 from qemu
There is some iffy lock hierarchy going on in translate-all.c. To
fix it, we need to take the mmap_lock in cpu-exec.c. Make the
functions globally available.
Backports commit 8fd19e6cfd5b6cdf028c6ac2ff4157ed831ea3a6 from qemu
This patch introduces loop exit function, which also
restores guest CPU state according to the value of host
program counter.
Backports commit 1c3c8af1fb40a481c07749e0448644d9b7700415 from qemu
Guest CPU TLB maintenance operations may be sufficiently
specialized to only need to flush TLB entries corresponding
to a particular MMU index. Implement cputlb functions for
this, to avoid the inefficiency of flushing TLB entries
which we don't need to.
Backports commit d7a74a9d4a68e27b3a8ceda17bb95cb0a23d8e4d from qemu
The callers (most of them in target-foo/cpu.c) to this function all
have the cpu pointer handy. Just pass it to avoid an ENV_GET_CPU() from
core code (in exec.c).
Backports commit 4bad9e392e788a218967167a38ce2ae7a32a6231 from qemu
All of the core-code usages of this API have the cpu pointer handy so
pass it in. There are only 3 architecture specific usages (2 of which
are commented out) which can just use ENV_GET_CPU() locally to get the
cpu pointer. The reduces core code usage of the CPU env, which brings
us closer to common-obj'ing these core files.
Backports commit bbd77c180d7ff1b04a7661bb878939b2e1d23798 from qemu
This is one of very few things in exec-all with a genuine CPU
architecture dependency. Move these hashing helpers to a new
header to trim exec-all.h down to a near architecture-agnostic
header.
The defs are only used by cpu-exec and translate-all which are both
arch-obj's so the new tb-hash.h has no core code usage.
Backports commit e1b89321bafea9fb33d87852fc91fee579d17dfe from qemu
Remove them from the sundry exec-all.h header, since they are only used by
the TCG runtime in exec.c and user-exec.c.
Backports commit 1652b974766401743879d78f796f44b8929b0787 from qemu
Add a MemTxAttrs field to the IOTLB, and allow target-specific
code to set it via a new tlb_set_page_with_attrs() function;
pass the attributes through to the device when making IO accesses.
Backports commit fadc1cbe85c6b032d5842ec0d19d209f50fcb375 from qemu
Rather than retaining io_mem_read/write as simple wrappers around
the memory_region_dispatch_read/write functions, make the latter
public and change all the callers to use them, since we need to
touch all the callsites anyway to add MemTxAttrs and MemTxResult
support. Delete io_mem_read and io_mem_write entirely.
(All the callers currently pass MEMTXATTRS_UNSPECIFIED
and convert the return value back to bool or ignore it.)
Backports commit 3b6434953934e6d4a776ed426d8c6d6badee176f from qemu
After the previous patch, TLBs will be flushed on every change to
the memory mapping. This patch augments that with synchronization
of the MemoryRegionSections referred to in the iotlb array.
With this change, it is guaranteed that iotlb_to_region will access
the correct memory map, even once the TLB will be accessed outside
the BQL.
Backports commit 9d82b5a792236db31a75b9db5c93af69ac07c7c5 from qemu
This for now is a simple TLB flush. This can change later for two
reasons:
1) an AddressSpaceDispatch will be cached in the CPUState object
2) it will not be possible to do tlb_flush once the TCG-generated code
runs outside the BQL.
