Subject: [Qemu-devel] [6100] When -icount is used and a TB is recompiled due to an IO access
Date: Fri, 19 Dec 2008 12:49:13 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <E1LDen3-0000aL-Hf@cvs.savannah.gnu.org> (raw)

Revision: 6100
          http://svn.sv.gnu.org/viewvc/?view=rev&root=qemu&revision=6100
Author:   pbrook
Date:     2008-12-19 12:49:13 +0000 (Fri, 19 Dec 2008)

Log Message:
-----------
When -icount is used and a TB is recompiled due to an IO access 
shortly after an IRQ has been raised, env->exception_index will still be set 
to EXCP_IRQ when cpu_io_recompile calls cpu_resume_from_signal.
This causes qemu to repeat the IRQ trap, with disasterous consequences.

I suspect this "works" most of the time because linux tends to drop back to
svc mode before doing actual IRQ processing, and be fairly
tolerant of spurious IRQ traps.
