Got it, but the real problem is for addr_regl instead of guest_base.


Using your code for reference, I'll use TCG_TMP0 for addr_regl instead 


of modifying it, and then send patch of new version later.

I'll write a test demo to produce crash in tcg_out_qemu_st flow, and send

another patch for that.

It uses base(TCG_REG_A0) for temperary use for guest_base in this case.




Thanks a lot.
