[Qemu-devel] Translation block identification.

[Rafael Kioji <rafaelkioji@gmail.com>]

Dear all,

During translation how can I identify what is the basic block of the 
guest code? I wanted to know whether the block being translated is the 
beginning of a function and get its name.

My current approach involves looking up the symbol associated with the 
first PC of the translation block. But no symbol is ever found. What I 
did was to add the following code in the function "translator_loop" at 
"accel/tcg/translator.c":

     printf("sym: %lu %s\n", tb->pc, lookup_symbol(tb->pc));

The function lookup_symbol is defined in the file "./disas.c". I am 
compiling my application with symbols (-g). My target arch is ARM.

Thanks!


Kind regards,
Rafael
