Hi,

Could somebody explain a bit on how TCG works? Is it true that now we
translate the target CPU insns to TCG, then TCG to host insns in the
final step?

TCG is a backend of C compiler (gcc?), so how C compiler employs it?

Sorry it is tough for someone with no background on compiler to
understand how the whole work.

Many thanks,
Jun

Start reading http://cvs.savannah.gnu.org/viewvc/qemu/tcg/README?revision=1.4&root=qemu&view=markup

by in general, you're right IMHO. TCG itself is the compiler...

Mulyadi.
