We use raw memory primitives along the !parallel_cpus paths in order to
simplify the endianness handling. Because of that, we did not benefit
from the generic changes to cpu_ldst_user_only_template.h.
The simplest fix is to manipulate helper_retaddr here.

When we handle a signal from a fault within a user-only memory helper,
we cannot cpu_restore_state with the PC found within the signal frame.
Use a TLS variable, helper_retaddr, to record the unwind start point
to find the faulting guest insn.

Add helpers to gather cache info from the host at init-time.
For now, only export the host's I/D cache line sizes, which we
will use to improve cache locality to avoid false sharing.

There are now only two uses of the global exit_request left.
The first ensures we exit the run_loop when we first start to process
pending work and in the kick handler. This is just as easily done by
setting the first_cpu->exit_request flag.
The second use is in the round robin kick routine. The global
exit_request ensured every vCPU would set its local exit_request and
cause a full exit of the loop. Now the iothread isn't being held while
running we can just rely on the kick handler to push us out as intended.
We lightly re-factor the main vCPU thread to ensure cpu->exit_requests
cause us to exit the main loop and process any IO requests that might
come along. As an cpu->exit_request may legitimately get squashed
while processing the EXCP_INTERRUPT exception we also check
cpu->queued_work_first to ensure queued work is expedited as soon as
possible.

..and make the definition local to cpus. In preparation for MTTCG the
concept of a global tcg_current_cpu will no longer make sense. However
we still need to keep track of it in the single-threaded case to be able
to exit quickly when required.
qemu_cpu_kick_no_halt() moves and becomes qemu_cpu_kick_rr_cpu() to
emphasise its use-case. qemu_cpu_kick now kicks the relevant cpu as
well as qemu_kick_rr_cpu() which will become a no-op in MTTCG.
For the time being the setting of the global exit_request remains.

Also atomically sets the unicorn equivalents
We know there will be cases where MTTCG won't work until additional work
is done in the front/back ends to support. It will however be useful to
be able to turn it on.
As a result MTTCG will default to off unless the combination is
supported. However the user can turn it on for the sake of testing.

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 is the first step in reducing the brk heap fragmentation
created by the map->nodes memory allocation. Since the introduction
of RCU the freeing of the PhysPageMaps is delayed so that sometimes
several hundred are allocated at the same time.
Even worse the memory for map->nodes is allocated and shortly
afterwards reallocated. Since the number of nodes it grows
to in the end is the same for all PhysPageMaps remember this value
and at least avoid the reallocation.
The large number of simultaneous allocations (about 450 x 70kB in
my configuration) has to be addressed later.

Postcopy sends RAMBlock names and offsets over the wire (since it can't
rely on the order of ramaddr being the same), and it starts out with
HVA fault addresses from the kernel.
qemu_ram_block_from_host translates a HVA into a RAMBlock, an offset
in the RAMBlock and the global ram_addr_t value.
Rewrite qemu_ram_addr_from_host to use qemu_ram_block_from_host.
Provide qemu_ram_get_idstr since its the actual name text sent on the
wire.

platform. It will be used on POSIX platforms as soon TCG stops using

UC_HOOK_MEM_READ fires before handlers for invalid memory reads, so UC_HOOK_MEM_VALID would technically also be receiving invalid memory reads. Switching to UC_HOOK_MEM_READ_AFTER ensures that only actually valid reads are hooked

Writing / reading to model specific registers should be as easy as
calling a function, it's a bit stupid to write shell code and run them
just to write/read to a MSR, and even worse, you need more than just a
shellcode to read...
So, add a special register ID called UC_X86_REG_MSR, which should be
passed to uc_reg_write()/uc_reg_read() as the register ID, and then a
data structure which is uc_x86_msr (12 bytes), as the value (always), where:
Byte Value Size
0 MSR ID 4
4 MSR val 8
