This is a prerequisite for supporting multiple TCG contexts, since we will have threads generating code in separate regions of code_gen_buffer. For this we need a new field (.size) in struct tb_tc to keep track of the size of the translated code. This field uses a size_t to avoid adding a hole to the struct, although really an unsigned int would have been enough. The comparison function we use is optimized for the common case: insertions. Profiling shows that upon booting debian-arm, 98% of comparisons are between existing tb's (i.e. a->size and b->size are both !0), which happens during insertions (and removals, but those are rare). The remaining cases are lookups. From reading the glib sources we see that the first key is always the lookup key. However, the code does not assume this to always be the case because this behaviour is not guaranteed in the glib docs. However, we embed this knowledge in the code as a branch hint for the compiler. Note that tb_free does not free space in the code_gen_buffer anymore, since we cannot easily know whether the tb is the last one inserted in code_gen_buffer. The next patch in this series renames tb_free to tb_remove to reflect this. Performance-wise, lookups in tb_find_pc are the same as before: O(log n). However, insertions are O(log n) instead of O(1), which results in a small slowdown when booting debian-arm: Performance counter stats for 'build/arm-softmmu/qemu-system-arm \ -machine type=virt -nographic -smp 1 -m 4096 \ -netdev user,id=unet,hostfwd=tcp::2222-:22 \ -device virtio-net-device,netdev=unet \ -drive file=img/arm/jessie-arm32.qcow2,id=myblock,index=0,if=none \ -device virtio-blk-device,drive=myblock \ -kernel img/arm/aarch32-current-linux-kernel-only.img \ -append console=ttyAMA0 root=/dev/vda1 \ -name arm,debug-threads=on -smp 1' (10 runs): - Before: 8048.598422 task-clock (msec) # 0.931 CPUs utilized ( +- 0.28% ) 16,974 context-switches # 0.002 M/sec ( +- 0.12% ) 0 cpu-migrations # 0.000 K/sec 10,125 page-faults # 0.001 M/sec ( +- 1.23% ) 35,144,901,879 cycles # 4.367 GHz ( +- 0.14% ) <not supported> stalled-cycles-frontend <not supported> stalled-cycles-backend 65,758,252,643 instructions # 1.87 insns per cycle ( +- 0.33% ) 10,871,298,668 branches # 1350.707 M/sec ( +- 0.41% ) 192,322,212 branch-misses # 1.77% of all branches ( +- 0.32% ) 8.640869419 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.57% ) - After: 8146.242027 task-clock (msec) # 0.923 CPUs utilized ( +- 1.23% ) 17,016 context-switches # 0.002 M/sec ( +- 0.40% ) 0 cpu-migrations # 0.000 K/sec 18,769 page-faults # 0.002 M/sec ( +- 0.45% ) 35,660,956,120 cycles # 4.378 GHz ( +- 1.22% ) <not supported> stalled-cycles-frontend <not supported> stalled-cycles-backend 65,095,366,607 instructions # 1.83 insns per cycle ( +- 1.73% ) 10,803,480,261 branches # 1326.192 M/sec ( +- 1.95% ) 195,601,289 branch-misses # 1.81% of all branches ( +- 0.39% ) 8.828660235 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.38% ) Reviewed-by: Richard Henderson <rth@twiddle.net> Signed-off-by: Emilio G.

QEMU README
===========
QEMU is a generic and open source machine & userspace emulator and
virtualizer.
QEMU is capable of emulating a complete machine in software without any
need for hardware virtualization support. By using dynamic translation,
it achieves very good performance. QEMU can also integrate with the Xen
and KVM hypervisors to provide emulated hardware while allowing the
hypervisor to manage the CPU. With hypervisor support, QEMU can achieve
near native performance for CPUs. When QEMU emulates CPUs directly it is
capable of running operating systems made for one machine (e.g. an ARMv7
board) on a different machine (e.g. an x86_64 PC board).
QEMU is also capable of providing userspace API virtualization for Linux
and BSD kernel interfaces. This allows binaries compiled against one
architecture ABI (e.g. the Linux PPC64 ABI) to be run on a host using a
different architecture ABI (e.g. the Linux x86_64 ABI). This does not
involve any hardware emulation, simply CPU and syscall emulation.
QEMU aims to fit into a variety of use cases. It can be invoked directly
by users wishing to have full control over its behaviour and settings.
It also aims to facilitate integration into higher level management
layers, by providing a stable command line interface and monitor API.
It is commonly invoked indirectly via the libvirt library when using
open source applications such as oVirt, OpenStack and virt-manager.
QEMU as a whole is released under the GNU General Public License,
version 2. For full licensing details, consult the LICENSE file.
Building
========
QEMU is multi-platform software intended to be buildable on all modern
Linux platforms, OS-X, Win32 (via the Mingw64 toolchain) and a variety
of other UNIX targets. The simple steps to build QEMU are:
mkdir build
cd build
../configure
make
Additional information can also be found online via the QEMU website:
http://qemu-project.org/Hosts/Linux
http://qemu-project.org/Hosts/Mac
http://qemu-project.org/Hosts/W32
Submitting patches
==================
The QEMU source code is maintained under the GIT version control system.
git clone git://git.qemu-project.org/qemu.git
When submitting patches, the preferred approach is to use 'git
format-patch' and/or 'git send-email' to format & send the mail to the
qemu-devel@nongnu.org mailing list. All patches submitted must contain
a 'Signed-off-by' line from the author. Patches should follow the
guidelines set out in the HACKING and CODING_STYLE files.
Additional information on submitting patches can be found online via
the QEMU website
http://qemu-project.org/Contribute/SubmitAPatch
http://qemu-project.org/Contribute/TrivialPatches
Bug reporting
=============
The QEMU project uses Launchpad as its primary upstream bug tracker. Bugs
found when running code built from QEMU git or upstream released sources
should be reported via:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/qemu/
If using QEMU via an operating system vendor pre-built binary package, it
is preferable to report bugs to the vendor's own bug tracker first. If
the bug is also known to affect latest upstream code, it can also be
reported via launchpad.
For additional information on bug reporting consult:
http://qemu-project.org/Contribute/ReportABug
Contact
=======
The QEMU community can be contacted in a number of ways, with the two
main methods being email and IRC
- qemu-devel@nongnu.org
http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/qemu-devel
- #qemu on irc.oftc.net
Information on additional methods of contacting the community can be
