The instruction "ucvtf v0.4h, v04h, #2", with input 0x8000u,
overflows the intermediate float16 to infinity before we have a
chance to scale the output. Use float64 as the intermediate type
so that no input argument (uint32_t in this case) can overflow
or round before scaling. Given the declared argument, the signed
int32_t function has the same problem.
When converting from float16 to integer, using u/int32_t instead
of u/int16_t means that the bounding is incorrect.

The MDCR_EL2.TDE bit allows the exception level targeted by debug
exceptions to be set to EL2 for code executing at EL0. We handle
this in the arm_debug_target_el() function, but this is only used for
hardware breakpoint and watchpoint exceptions, not for the exception
generated when the guest executes an AArch32 BKPT or AArch64 BRK
instruction. We don't have enough information for a translate-time
equivalent of arm_debug_target_el(), so instead make BKPT and BRK
call a special purpose helper which can do the routing, rather than
the generic exception_with_syndrome helper.
Backports commit c900a2e62dd6dde11c8f5249b638caad05bb15be from qemu
Currently CPUState::cpu_index is monotonically increasing and a newly
created CPU always gets the next higher index. The next available
index is calculated by counting the existing number of CPUs. This is
fine as long as we only add CPUs, but there are architectures which
are starting to support CPU removal, too. For an architecture like PowerPC
which derives its CPU identifier (device tree ID) from cpu_index, the
existing logic of generating cpu_index values causes problems.
With the currently proposed method of handling vCPU removal by parking
the vCPU fd in QEMU
(Ref: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2015-02/msg02604.html),
generating cpu_index this way will not work for PowerPC.
This patch changes the way cpu_index is handed out by maintaining
a bit map of the CPUs that tracks both addition and removal of CPUs.
The CPU bitmap allocation logic is part of cpu_exec_init(), which is
called by instance_init routines of various CPU targets. Newly added
cpu_exec_exit() API handles the deallocation part and this routine is
called from generic CPU instance_finalize.
Note: This new CPU enumeration is for !CONFIG_USER_ONLY only.
CONFIG_USER_ONLY continues to have the old enumeration logic.

With all targets defining CPU_RESOLVING_TYPE, refactor
cpu_parse_cpu_model(type, cpu_model) to parse_cpu_model(cpu_model)
so that callers won't have to know internal resolving cpu
type. Place it in exec.c so it could be called from both
target independed vl.c and *-user/main.c.
That allows us to stop abusing cpu type from
MachineClass::default_cpu_type
as resolver class in vl.c which were confusing part of
cpu_parse_cpu_model().
Also with new parse_cpu_model(), the last users of cpu_init()
in null-machine.c and bsd/linux-user targets could be switched
to cpu_create() API and cpu_init() API will be removed by
follow up patch.
With no longer users left remove MachineState::cpu_model field,
new code should use MachineState::cpu_type instead and
leave cpu_model parsing to generic code in vl.c.

Backports commit bcebf102ccc3c6db327f341adc379fdf0673ca6b from qemu
This shares an cached empty FlatView among address spaces. The empty
FV is used every time when a root MR renders into a FV without memory
sections which happens when MR or its children are not enabled or
zero-sized. The empty_view is not NULL to keep the rest of memory
API intact; it also has a dispatch tree for the same reason.
On POWER8 with 255 CPUs, 255 virtio-net, 40 PCI bridges guest this halves
the amount of FlatView's in use (557 -> 260) and dispatch tables
(~800000 -> ~370000). In an unrelated experiment with 112 non-virtio
devices on x86 ("-M pc"), only 4 FlatViews are alive, and about ~2000
are created at startup.

As we are going to share FlatView's between AddressSpace's,
and AddressSpaceDispatch is a structure to perform quick lookup
in FlatView, this moves ASD to FlatView.
After previosly open coded ASD rendering, we can also remove
as->next_dispatch as the new FlatView pointer is stored
on a stack and set to an AS atomically.
flatview_destroy() is executed under RCU instead of
address_space_dispatch_free() now.
This makes mem_begin/mem_commit to work with ASD and mem_add with FV
as later on mem_add will be taking FV as an argument anyway.
This should cause no behavioural change.

In the v7M architecture, there is an invariant that if the CPU is
in Handler mode then the CONTROL.SPSEL bit cannot be nonzero.
This in turn means that the current stack pointer is always
indicated by CONTROL.SPSEL, even though Handler mode always uses
the Main stack pointer.
In v8M, this invariant is removed, and CONTROL.SPSEL may now
be nonzero in Handler mode (though Handler mode still always
uses the Main stack pointer). In preparation for this change,
change how we handle this bit: rename switch_v7m_sp() to
the now more accurate write_v7m_control_spsel(), and make it
check both the handler mode state and the SPSEL bit.
Note that this implicitly changes the point at which we switch
active SP on exception exit from before we pop the exception
frame to after it.

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.

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:

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.

Add all of cmpxchg, op_fetch, fetch_op, and xchg.
Handle both endian-ness, and sizes up to 8.
Handle expanding non-atomically, when emulating in serial.

Probe for whether the specified guest write access is permitted.
If it is not permitted then an exception will be taken in the same
way as if this were a real write access (and we will not return).
Otherwise the function will return, and there will be a valid
entry in the TLB for this access.

When we cannot emulate an atomic operation within a parallel
context, this exception allows us to stop the world and try
again in a serial context.

The QmpOutputVisitor has no direct dependency on QMP. It is
valid to use it anywhere that one wants a QObject. Rename it
to better reflect its functionality as a generic QAPI
to QObject converter.
The commit before previous renamed the files, this one renames C
identifiers.

Support target CPUs having a page size which isn't knownn
at compile time. To use this, the CPU implementation should:
* define TARGET_PAGE_BITS_VARY
* not define TARGET_PAGE_BITS
* define TARGET_PAGE_BITS_MIN to the smallest value it
might possibly want for TARGET_PAGE_BITS
* call set_preferred_target_page_bits() in its realize
function to indicate the actual preferred target page
size for the CPU (and report any error from it)
In CONFIG_USER_ONLY, the CPU implementation should continue
to define TARGET_PAGE_BITS appropriately for the guest
OS page size.
Machines which want to take advantage of having the page
size something larger than TARGET_PAGE_BITS_MIN must
set the MachineClass minimum_page_bits field to a value
which they guarantee will be no greater than the preferred
page size for any CPU they create.
Note that changing the target page size by setting
minimum_page_bits is a migration compatibility break
for that machine.
For debugging purposes, attempts to use TARGET_PAGE_SIZE
before it has been finally confirmed will assert.
Backports commit 20bccb82ff3ea09bcb7c4ee226d3160cab15f7da from qemu
Remove L1 page mapping table properties computing
statically using macros which is dependent on
TARGET_PAGE_BITS. Drop macros V_L1_SIZE, V_L1_SHIFT,
V_L1_BITS macros and replace with variables which are
computed at early stage of VM boot.
Removing dependency can help to make TARGET_PAGE_BITS
dynamic.

This commit introduces the TCGOpcode for memory barrier instruction.
This opcode takes an argument which is the type of memory barrier
which should be generated.

Setting skip_dump on a MemoryRegion allows us to modify one specific
code path, but the restriction we're trying to address encompasses
more than that. If we have a RAM MemoryRegion backed by a physical
device, it not only restricts our ability to dump that region, but
also affects how we should manipulate it. Here we recognize that
MemoryRegions do not change to sometimes allow dumps and other times
not, so we replace setting the skip_dump flag with a new initializer
so that we know exactly the type of region to which we're applying
this behavior.

Rather than rely on recursion during the middle of register allocation,
lower indirect registers to loads and stores off the indirect base into
plain temps.
For an x86_64 host, with sufficient registers, this results in identical
code, modulo the actual register assignments.
For an i686 host, with insufficient registers, this means that temps can
be (temporarily) spilled to the stack in order to satisfy an allocation.
This as opposed to the possibility of not being able to spill, to allocate
a register for the indirect base, in order to perform a spill.
Backports commit 5a18407f55ade924aa6397c9a043a9ffd59645fe from qemu
Provide a new helper function memory_region_init_rom() for memory
regions which are read-only (and unlike those created by
memory_region_init_rom_device() don't have special behaviour
for writes). This has the same behaviour as calling
memory_region_init_ram() and then memory_region_set_readonly()
(which is what we do today in boards with pure ROMs) but is a
more easily discoverable API for the purpose.
