From: KONRAD Frederic fred.kon...@greensocs.com
This flag indicates the state of the VCPU thread:
* 0 if the VCPU is allowed to execute code.
* 1 if the VCPU is currently executing code.
* -1 if the VCPU is not allowed to execute code.
This allows to atomically check and run safe work or check and continue the TCG
execution.
Signed-off-by: KONRAD Frederic fred.kon...@greensocs.com
Changes V2 - V3:
* introduce a third state which allow or not the execution.
* atomically check and set the flag when starting or blocking the code
execution.
Changes V1 - V2:
* do both tcg_executing = 0 or 1 in cpu_exec().
