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.
Backports commit 5abf9495ca9ff41160260ac274115825c10545cc from qemu
Synchronize the remaining pair of accesses in cpu_signal. These should
be necessary on Windows as well, at least in theory. Probably
SuspendProcess and ResumeProcess introduce some implicit memory
barrier.
Backports relevant parts of commit aed807c8e2bf009b2c6a35490d4fd4383887221d from qemu
TCG has not been reading cpu->current_tb from signal handlers for years.
The code that synchronized cpu_exec with the signal handler is not
needed anymore.
Backports commit b0a46fa796504c7334202877a68c857e49f7c96c from qemu
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.
Backports commit 9373e63297c43752f9cf085feb7f5aed57d959f8 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
Remove un-needed usages of ENV_GET_CPU() by converting the APIs to use
CPUState pointers and retrieving the env_ptr as minimally needed.
Scripted conversion for target-* change:
for I in target-*/cpu.h; do
sed -i \
's/\(^int cpu_[^_]*_exec(\)[^ ][^ ]* \*s);$/\1CPUState *cpu);/' \
$I;
done
Backports commit ea3e9847408131abc840240bd61e892d28459452 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
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.
