'tb_invalidated_flag' was meant to catch two events:
* some TB has been invalidated by tb_phys_invalidate();
* the whole translation buffer has been flushed by tb_flush().
Then it was checked:
* in cpu_exec() to ensure that the last executed TB can be safely
linked to directly call the next one;
* in cpu_exec_nocache() to decide if the original TB should be provided
for further possible invalidation along with the temporarily
generated TB.
It is always safe to patch an invalidated TB since it is not going to be
used anyway. It is also safe to call tb_phys_invalidate() for an already
invalidated TB. Thus, setting this flag in tb_phys_invalidate() is
simply unnecessary. Moreover, it can prevent from pretty proper linking
of TBs, if any arbitrary TB has been invalidated. So just don't touch it
in tb_phys_invalidate().
If this flag is only used to catch whether tb_flush() has been called
then rename it to 'tb_flushed'. Declare it as 'bool' and stick to using
only 'true' and 'false' to set its value. Also, instead of setting it in
tb_gen_code(), just after tb_flush() has been called, do it right inside
of tb_flush().
In cpu_exec(), this flag is used to track if tb_flush() has been called
and have made 'next_tb' (a reference to the last executed TB) invalid
for linking it to directly call the next TB. tb_flush() can be called
during the CPU execution loop from tb_gen_code(), during TB execution or
by another thread while 'tb_lock' is released. Catch for translation
buffer flush reliably by resetting this flag once before first TB lookup
and each time we find it set before trying to add a direct jump. Don't
touch in in tb_find_physical().
Each vCPU has its own execution loop in multithreaded mode and thus
should have its own copy of the flag to be able to reset it with its own
'next_tb' and don't affect any other vCPU execution thread. So make this
flag per-vCPU and move it to CPUState.
In cpu_exec_nocache(), we only need to check if tb_flush() has been
called from tb_gen_code() called by cpu_exec_nocache() itself. To do
this reliably, preserve the old value of the flag, reset it before
calling tb_gen_code(), check afterwards, and combine the saved value
back to the flag.
This patch is based on the patch "tcg: move tb_invalidated_flag to
CPUState" from Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>.
Backports commit 6f789be56d3f38e9214dafcfab3bf9be7191f370 from qemu
The value returned from tcg_qemu_tb_exec() is the value passed to the
corresponding tcg_gen_exit_tb() at translation time of the last TB
attempted to execute. It is a little confusing to store it in a variable
named 'next_tb'. In fact, it is a combination of 4-byte aligned pointer
and additional information in its two least significant bits. Break it
down right away into two variables named 'last_tb' and 'tb_exit' which
are a pointer to the last TB attempted to execute and the TB exit
reason, correspondingly. This simplifies the code and improves its
readability.
Correct a misleading documentation comment for tcg_qemu_tb_exec() and
fix logging in cpu_tb_exec(). Also rename a misleading 'next_tb' in
another couple of places.
Backports commit 819af24b9c1e95e6576f1cefd32f4d6bf56dfa56 from qemu
We don't take care of direct jumps when address mapping changes. Thus we
must be sure to generate direct jumps so that they always keep valid
even if address mapping changes. Luckily, we can only allow to execute a
TB if it was generated from the pages which match with current mapping.
Document tcg_gen_goto_tb() declaration and note the reason for
destination PC limitations.
Some targets with variable length instructions allow TB to straddle a
page boundary. However, we make sure that both of TB pages match the
current address mapping when looking up TBs. So it is safe to do direct
jumps into the both pages. Correct the checks for some of those targets.
Given that, we can safely patch a TB which spans two pages. Remove the
unnecessary check in cpu_exec() and allow such TBs to be patched.
Backports commit 5b053a4a28278bca606eeff7d1c0730df1b047e9 from qemu
We are inconsistent with the type of tb->flags: usage varies loosely
between int and uint64_t. Settle to uint32_t everywhere, which is
superior to both: at least one target (aarch64) uses the most significant
bit in the u32, and uint64_t is wasteful.
Compile-tested for all targets.

Improve the TB execution logging so that it is easier to identify
what is happening from trace logs:
* move the "Trace" logging of executed TBs into cpu_tb_exec()
so that it is emitted if and only if we actually execute a TB,
and for consistency for the CPU state logging
* log when we link two TBs together via tb_add_jump()
* log when cpu_tb_exec() returns early from a chain of TBs
The new style logging looks like this:

Backports commit 7b31bbc2e68605ab2f10dc609dd54cf4c7b5f49a from qemu
Reloading of local variables after sigsetjmp is only needed for some
buggy compilers.
The code which should reload these variables causes compiler warnings
with gcc 4.7 when compiler optimizations are enabled:
cpu-exec.c:204:15: error:
variable ‘cpu’ might be clobbered by ‘longjmp’ or ‘vfork’ [-Werror=clobbered]
cpu-exec.c:207:15: error:
variable ‘cc’ might be clobbered by ‘longjmp’ or ‘vfork’ [-Werror=clobbered]
cpu-exec.c:202:28: error:
argument ‘env’ might be clobbered by ‘longjmp’ or ‘vfork’ [-Werror=clobbered]
Now this code is only used for compilers which need it
(and gcc 4.5.x, x > 0 which does not need it but won't give warnings).
There were bug reports for clang and gcc 4.5.0, while gcc 4.5.1
was reported to work fine without the reload code. For clang it
is not clear which versions are affected, so simply keep the status quo
for all clang compilations. This can be improved later.
Backports commit 0448f5f8b816923b198ab6c32286fd1f3b2f3e45 from qemu
The goal is to split the functions such that cpu-exec is CPU specific
content, while cpus-exec-common.c is generic code only. The function
interface to cpu-exec needs to be virtualised to prepare support for
multi-arch and moving these definitions out saves bloating the QOM
interface. So move these definitions out of cpu-exec to a new module,
cpu-exec-common.

This is already useful on Windows in order to remove tls.h, because
accesses to current_cpu are done from a different thread on that
platform. It will be used on POSIX platforms as soon TCG stops using
signals to interrupt the execution of translated code.

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.

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.

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.

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.
