tcg_op_defs (and the _max) are both needed by the TCI disassembler. For
multi-arch, tcg.c will be multiple-compiled (arch-obj) with its symbols
hidden from common code. So split the definition off to new file,
tcg-common.c which will remain a regular obj-y for use by both the TCI
disas as well as the multiple tcg.c's.
Backports commit 7d8f787d9d261d6880b69e35ed682241e3f9242f from qemu
Move this function to common code. It has no arch specific
dependencies. Prepares support for multi-arch where the translate-all
interface needs to be virtualised. One less thing to virtualise.
Backports commit 9b68a7754a892d8deb7696cfe609fe2ec3c6034a from qemu
The goal is to split the functions such that cpu-exec is CPU specific
content, while cpus-exec-common.c is generic code only. The function
interface to cpu-exec needs to be virtualised to prepare support for
multi-arch and moving these definitions out saves bloating the QOM
interface. So move these definitions out of cpu-exec to a new module,
cpu-exec-common.
Backports commit 5abf9495ca9ff41160260ac274115825c10545cc from qemu
Future patches will be adding more crypto related APIs which
rely on QOM infrastructure. This creates a problem, because
QOM relies on library constructors to register objects. When
you have a file in a static .a library though which is only
referenced by a constructor the linker is dumb and will drop
that file when linking to the final executable :-( The only
workaround for this is to link the .a library to the executable
using the -Wl,--whole-archive flag, but this creates its own
set of problems because QEMU is relying on lazy linking for
libqemuutil.a. Using --whole-archive majorly increases the
size of final executables as they now contain a bunch of
object code they don't actually use.
The least bad option is to thus not include the crypto objects
in libqemuutil.la, and instead define a crypto-obj-y variable
that is referenced directly by all the executables that need
this code (tools + softmmu, but not qemu-ga). We avoid pulling
entire of crypto-obj-y into the userspace emulators as that
would force them to link to gnutls too, which is not required.
Backports commit fb37726db77b21f3731b90693d2c93ade1777528 from qemu
Some of these functions are really quite large. We have a number of
things that ought to be circularly dependent, but we duplicated code
to break that chain for the inlines.
This saved 25% of the code size of one of the translators I examined.
