Briefly describe in a comment how direct block chaining is done. It
should help in understanding of the following data fields.
Rename some fields in TranslationBlock and TCGContext structures to
better reflect their purpose (dropping excessive 'tb_' prefix in
TranslationBlock but keeping it in TCGContext):
tb_next_offset => jmp_reset_offset
tb_jmp_offset => jmp_insn_offset
tb_next => jmp_target_addr
jmp_next => jmp_list_next
jmp_first => jmp_list_first
Avoid using a magic constant as an invalid offset which is used to
indicate that there's no n-th jump generated.

The TCG code is quite performance sensitive, but at the same time can
also be quite tricky. That is why asserts that can be enabled with the
--enable-debug-tcg configure option.
This used to work the following way:
| #include "config.h"
|
| ...
|
| #if !defined(CONFIG_DEBUG_TCG) && !defined(NDEBUG)
| /* define it to suppress various consistency checks (faster) */
| #define NDEBUG
| #endif
|
| ...
|
| #include <assert.h>
Since commit 757e725b (tcg: Clean up includes) "config.h" as been
replaced by "qemu/osdep.h" which itself includes <assert.h>. As a
consequence the assertions are always enabled, even when using
--disable-debug-tcg, causing a performance regression, especially on
targets with many registers. For instance on qemu-system-ppc the
speed difference is about 15%.
tcg_debug_assert is controlled directly by CONFIG_DEBUG_TCG and already
uses in some places. This patch replaces all the calls to assert into
calss to tcg_debug_assert.

Commit 757e725b58c57d added a number of #include "qemu/osdep.h"
files to the tcg-target.c files (as they were named at the time).
These are unnecessary because these files are not standalone C
files, and the tcg/tcg.c file which includes them will have
already included osdep.h on their behalf. Remove the unneeded
include directives.
Backports commit c3b7f66800fbf9f47fddbcf2e2cd30ea932e0aae from qemu
Rename the per-architecture tcg-target.c files to tcg-target.inc.c.
This makes it clearer that they are not intended to be standalone
C files, but are instead #included into another source file.
Backports commit ce151109813e2770fd3cee2f37bfa2cdd01a12b9 from qemu
Clean up includes so that osdep.h is included first and headers
which it implies are not included manually.
This commit was created with scripts/clean-includes.
Backports commit 757e725b58c57d3ebb66a31fd2210df977a12154 from qemu
Restrict the size of code_gen_buffer to 2GB on ppc64, which
lets us assert that everything is reachable with addis+addi
from tb_ret_addr. This lets us use a max of 4 insns for goto_tb
instead of 7.
Emit the indirect branch portion of goto_tb up front, which
means we only have to update two insns to update any link.
With a 64-bit store, we can update the link atomically, which
may be required in future.
Backports commit 5bfd75a35c11dd3aa61c73d0d2cd88137c31519c from qemu
Changing the prologue to the beginning of the code_gen_buffer
changes the direction of the "return" branch. Need to change
the logic to match.

This will be used to size the TLB when more than 8 MMU modes are
used by the target. Limitations come from the limited size of
the immediate fields (which sometimes, as in the case of Aarch64,
extend to instructions that shift the immediate).
Backports commit 006f8638c62bca2b0caf609485f47fa5e14d8a3c from qemu
Rather than allow arbitrary shift+trunc, only concern ourselves
with low and high parts. This is all that was being used anyway.
Backports commit 609ad70562793937257c89d07bf7c1370b9fc9aa from qemu
Implement real ext_i32_i64 and extu_i32_i64 ops. They ensure that a
32-bit value is always converted to a 64-bit value and not propagated
through the register allocator or the optimizer.
Backports commit 4f2331e5b67af8172419eb1c8db510b497b30a7b from qemu
The op is sometimes named trunc_shr_i32 and sometimes trunc_shr_i64_i32,
and the name in the README doesn't match the name offered to the
frontends.
Always use the long name to make it clear it is a size changing op.

The addition of MO_AMASK means that places that used inverted masks
need to be changed to use positive masks, and places that failed to
mask the intended bits need updating.

The extra information is not yet used but it is now available.
This requires minor changes through all of the tcg backends.
Backports commit 3972ef6f830d65e9bacbd31257abedc055fd6dc8 from qemu
At the tcg opcode level, not at the tcg-op.h generator level.
This requires minor changes through all of the tcg backends,
but none of the cpu translators.
Backports commit 59227d5d45bb3c31dc2118011691c35b3c00879c from qemu
This is less about improved type checking than enabling a
subsequent change to the representation of labels.
