Each target uses the #define macro (in target-xxx/cpu.h) to rename
cpu_exec (cpu-exec.c) to cpu_xxx_exec, then defines its own cpu_loop
which calls cpu_xxx_exec. So basically, cpu-exec.c is not only the i386
emulator main execution loop. This patch corrects the comment of this
file and does indentation cleanup.

In the current emulation of the load-and-reserve (lwarx) and
store-conditional (stwcx.) instructions, the internal reservation
mechanism is taken into account, however each CPU has its own
reservation information and this information is not synchronized between
CPUs to perform proper synchronization.
The following test case with 2 CPUs shows that the semantics of the
"lwarx" and "stwcx." instructions are not preserved by the emulation.
The test case does the following :
- CPU0: reserve a memory location
- CPU1: reserve the same memory location
- CPU0: perform stwcx. on the location
The last store-conditional operation succeeds while it is supposed to
fail since the reservation was supposed to be lost at the second reserve
operation.
This (one line) patch fixes this problem in a very simple manner by
removing the reservation of a CPU every time it is scheduled (in
cpu_exec()). While this is a harsh workaround, it does not affect the
guest code much because reservations are usually held for a very short
time, that is an lwarx is almost always followed by an stwcx. a few
instructions below. Therefore, in most cases, the reservation will be
taken and consumed before a CPU switch occurs. However in the rare case
where a CPU switch does occur between the lwarx and its corresponding
stwcx. this patch solves a potential erroneous behavior of the
synchronization instructions.

kqemu introduces a number of restrictions on the i386 target. The worst is that
it prevents large memory from working in the default build.
Furthermore, kqemu is fundamentally flawed in a number of ways. It relies on
the TSC as a time source which will not be reliable on a multiple processor
system in userspace. Since most modern processors are multicore, this severely
limits the utility of kqemu.
kvm is a viable alternative for people looking to accelerate qemu and has the
benefit of being supported by the upstream Linux kernel. If someone can
implement work arounds to remove the restrictions introduced by kqemu, I'm
happy to avoid and/or revert this patch.

SVM specifies that the V_IRQ mask is only to be removed, if the
interrupt that is to be delivered actually is delivered.
As of the SVM rewrite, this mask is always unmasked when the main cpu

the current implementation tells the VMM the interrupt is taken, even

Commit #5620 revealed an issue of the SSTEP_NOIRQ masking that was
applied on all interrupt sources (including internal ones) when single
stepping through the guest. Due to that commit, we now ended up in an
infinite loop when CPU_INTERRUPT_EXIT was pending on SSTEP resume. That
was due to #5620 eating all TBs while CPU_INTERRUPT_EXIT is pending, but
SSTEP_NOIRQ preventing CPU_INTERRUPT_EXIT to be processed.
What SSTEP_NOIRQ should actually do is to block the delivery of all

This patch adds very basic KVM support. KVM is a kernel module for Linux that
allows userspace programs to make use of hardware virtualization support. It
current supports x86 hardware virtualization using Intel VT-x or AMD-V. It
also supports IA64 VT-i, PPC 440, and S390.
This patch only implements the bare minimum support to get a guest booting. It
has very little impact the rest of QEMU and attempts to integrate nicely with
the rest of QEMU.
Even though this implementation is basic, it is significantly faster than TCG.
Booting and shutting down a Linux guest:
w/TCG: 1:32.36 elapsed 84% CPU
w/KVM: 0:31.14 elapsed 59% CPU

* First shot at S flag single-stepping.
* Make it easier to use the local disasm.

This patch adds check for all SH4 instructions which are
executed only in privileged mode.

* Dont flush the entire qemu tlb when the $pid changes. Instead we go through
the guests TLB and choose entries that need to be flushed.
* Add env->dslot and handle delayslots at pageboundaries.
* Remove some unused code.

This patch allows the qemu backend debugger to single step an
instruction without running the hardware interrupts.

* Support both the I and D MMUs and improve the accuracy of the MMU model.
* Handle the automatic user/kernel stack pointer switching when leaving or entering user mode.
* Move the CCS evaluation into helper funcs.
* Make sure user-mode cannot change flags only writeable in kernel mode.
* More conversion of the translator into TCG.
* Handle exceptions while in a delayslot.

* Clean up the interrupt handling a bit.
* Connect some NOR flash to the test board.

allowing support of more than 2 mmu access modes.
Add backward compatibility is_user variable in targets code when needed.
Implement per target cpu_mmu_index function, avoiding duplicated code
and #ifdef TARGET_xxx in softmmu core functions.
Implement per target mmu modes definitions. As an example, add PowerPC
hypervisor mode definition and Alpha executive and kernel modes definitions.
Optimize PowerPC case, precomputing mmu_idx when MSR register changes
and using the same definition in code translation code.

move all PowerPC specific code into target-ppc/helper.c to avoid polluting
the common code in cpu-exec.c. This makes implementation of new features
(ie embedded PowerPC timers, critical interrupts, ...) easier.
This also avoid hardcoding the IRQ callback in the OpenPIC controller,
making it more easily reusable and allowing cascading.
