target-m68k: move fmove CR to a function

qapi: update the qobject visitor to use QNUM_U64
Switch to use QNum/uint where appropriate to remove i64 limitation.

The input visitor will cast i64 input to u64 for compatibility
reasons (existing json QMP client already use negative i64 for large
u64, and expect an implicit cast in qemu).

Note: before the patch, uint64_t values above INT64_MAX are sent over
json QMP as negative values, e.g. UINT64_MAX is sent as -1. After the
patch, they are sent unmodified. Clearly a bug fix, but we have to
consider compatibility issues anyway. libvirt should cope fine,
because its parsing of unsigned integers accepts negative values
modulo 2^64. There's hope that other clients will, too.

qnum: add uint type
In order to store integer values between INT64_MAX and UINT64_MAX, add
a uint64_t internal representation.

qapi: Remove visit_start_alternate() parameter promote_int
Before the previous commit, parameter promote_int = true made
visit_start_alternate() with an input visitor avoid QTYPE_QINT
variants and create QTYPE_QFLOAT variants instead. This was used
where QTYPE_QINT variants were invalid.

The previous commit fused QTYPE_QINT with QTYPE_QFLOAT, rendering
promote_int useless and unused.

qapi: merge QInt and QFloat in QNum
We would like to use a same QObject type to represent numbers, whether
they are int, uint, or floats. Getters will allow some compatibility
between the various types if the number fits other representations.

Add a few more tests while at it.

qobject: Add helper macros for common scalar insertions
Rather than making lots of callers wrap a scalar in a QInt, QString,
or QBool, provide helper macros that do the wrapping automatically.

Update the Coccinelle script to make mass conversions easy, although
the conversion itself will be done as a separate patches to ease
review and backport efforts.

qapi: Fix string input visitor regression for empty lists
Visiting a list when input is the empty string should result in an
empty list, not an error. Noticed when commit 3d089ce belatedly added
tests, but simply accepted as weird then. It's actually a regression:
broken in commit 74f24cb, v2.7.0. Fix it, and throw in another test
case for empty string.

tcg: Increase hit rate of lookup_tb_ptr
We can call tb_htable_lookup even when the tb_jmp_cache is completely
empty. Therefore, un-nest most of the code dependent on tb != NULL
from the read from the cache.

This improves the hit rate of lookup_tb_ptr; for instance, when booting
and immediately shutting down debian-arm, the hit rate improves from
93.2% to 99.4%.

translate-all: consolidate tb init in tb_gen_code
We are partially initializing tb in tb_alloc. Instead, fully
initialize it in tb_gen_code, which is tb_alloc's only caller.

This saves an unnecessary write to tb->cflags.

tcg: allocate TB structs before the corresponding translated code
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:

target/m68k: fix V flag for CC_OP_SUBx
V flag for subtraction is:

v = (res ^ src1) & (src1 ^ src2)

(see COMPUTE_CCR() in target/m68k/helper.c)

But gen_flush_flags() uses:

v = (res ^ src2) & (src1 ^ src2)

The problem has been found with the following program:

.global _start
_start:
move.l #-2147483648,%d0
subq.l #1,%d0
jvc 1f
move.l #1,%d1
move.l #1,%d0
trap #0
1:
move.l #0,%d1
move.l #1,%d0
trap #0

It works fine (exit(1)) on real hardware, and with "-singlestep".

"-singlestep" uses gen_helper_flush_flags(), whereas
without "-singlestep", V flag is computed directly in
gen_flush_flags().

This patch updates gen_flush_flags() to have the same result
as with gen_helper_flush_flags().

i386: fix read/write cr with icount option
Running Windows with icount causes a crash in instruction of write cr.
This patch fixes it.

Reading and writing cr cause an icount read because there are called
cpu_get_apic_tpr and cpu_set_apic_tpr functions. So, there is need
gen_io_start()/gen_io_end() calls.

complaint. Possibly we should simply require an armv6 host.

Backports commit b19f0c2e7d344d4d62daf554951acdb6c94a34b0 from qemu

tb-hash: improve tb_jmp_cache hash function in user mode
Optimizations to cross-page chaining and indirect branches make
performance more sensitive to the hit rate of tb_jmp_cache.
The constraint of reserving some bits for the page number
lowers the achievable quality of the hashing function.

However, user-mode does not have this requirement. Thus,
with this change we use for user-mode a hashing function that
is both faster and of better quality than the previous one.

Measurements:

Note: baseline (i.e. speedup == 1x) is QEMU v2.9.0.

Here I also tried the hash function suggested by Paolo ("multhash"):

return ((uint64_t) (pc * 2654435761) >> 32) & (TB_JMP_CACHE_SIZE - 1);

As you can see it is just as good as the other new function ("hash"),
which is what I ended up going with.
