Subject: [PATCH v2 3/4] accel/tcg: only USE_STATIC_CODE_GEN_BUFFER on 32 bit hosts
Date: Fri, 28 Feb 2020 19:24:14 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200228192415.19867-4-alex.bennee@linaro.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200228192415.19867-1-alex.bennee@linaro.org>

There is no particular reason to use a static codegen buffer on 64 bit
hosts as we have address space to burn. Allow the common CONFIG_USER
case to use the mmap'ed buffers like SoftMMU.
