With the new plugin register API we can now track changes to register
values. Currently the implementation is fairly dumb which will slow
down if a large number of register values are being tracked. This
could be improved by only instrumenting instructions which mention
registers we are interested in tracking.
Example usage:
./qemu-aarch64 -D plugin.log -d plugin \
-cpu max,sve256=on \
-plugin contrib/plugins/libexeclog.so,reg=sp,reg=z\* \
./tests/tcg/aarch64-linux-user/sha512-sve
will display in the execlog any changes to the stack pointer (sp) and
the SVE Z registers.
As testing registers every instruction will be quite a heavy operation
there is an additional flag which attempts to optimise the register
tracking by only instrumenting instructions which are likely to change
its value. This relies on the QEMU disassembler showing up the register
names in disassembly so is an explicit opt-in.
