Opcodes are added for scalar and vector shifts, but considering the
varied semantics of these do not expose them to the front ends. Do
go ahead and provide them in case they are needed for backend expansion.
Backports commit d0ec97967f940bbc11dced83422b39c224127f1e from qemu
It is unlikely that we will ever want to call this helper passing
an argument other than the current PC. So just remove the argument,
and use the pc we already get from cpu_get_tb_cpu_state.
This change paves the way to having a common "tb_lookup" function.
Backports commit 7f11636dbee89b0e4d03e9e2b96e14649a7db778 from qemu
Instead of exporting goto_ptr directly to TCG frontends, export
tcg_gen_lookup_and_goto_ptr(), which calls goto_ptr with the pointer
returned by the lookup_tb_ptr() helper. This is the only use case
we have for goto_ptr and lookup_tb_ptr, so having this function is
very convenient. Furthermore, it trivially allows us to avoid calling
the lookup helper if goto_ptr is not implemented by the backend.
Backports commit cedbcb01529cb6cf9a2289cdbebbc63f6149fc18 from qemu
The number of actual invocations of ctpop itself does not warrent
an opcode, but it is very helpful for POWER7 to use in generating
an expansion for ctz.
Backports commit a768e4e99247911f00c5c0267c12d4e207d5f6cc from qemu
The number of actual invocations does not warrent an opcode,
and the backends generating it. But at least we can eliminate
redundant helpers.
Backports commit 086920c2c8008f125fd38781072fa25c3ad158ea from qemu
Allow qemu to build on 32-bit hosts without 64-bit atomic ops.
Even if we only allow 32-bit hosts to multi-thread emulate 32-bit
guests, we still need some way to handle the 32-bit guest using a
64-bit atomic operation. Do so by dropping back to single-step.
Backports commit df79b996a7b21c6ea7847f7927a2e1a294b86c72 from qemu
Add all of cmpxchg, op_fetch, fetch_op, and xchg.
Handle both endian-ness, and sizes up to 8.
Handle expanding non-atomically, when emulating in serial.
