See v1 for context:
 https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2016-04/msg00587.html

All patches in v2 are checkpatch-clean, except 05 (checkpatch should
be ignored for this one) and 06, which I took unmodified (later patches
fix those warnings while doing other things, anyway).

Note that patch 01 has already been picked up by Paolo; I left it
here for completeness.

Another patch that is related to this series is the transition of
tb->flags to uint32_t; this has been sent as a separate patch since
it touches all targets. It shouldn't conflict with this patchset.

Changes from v1:
- Drop QEMU_CACHELINE, define QEMU_ALIGNED()
  + Remove excessive caution about Windows: it supports it.
  + define QHT_BUCKET_ALIGN as 64
- Add some reviewed-by tags from Alex.
- Drop POSIX spinlock wrapper; use the one pointed out by Paolo
  + Add a couple of fixes over this spinlock implementation:
    * define cpu_relax() for some architectures
    * Optimize spin_lock() for uncontended cases
- Add tb_hash_func5, a version of xxhash32 customized for tb-hash, so
  that the input values do not have to be contiguous in memory.
  + Drop xxhash.h, add only the customized version at exec/tb-hash-xx.h
- qht
  + use size_t for counts in qht
    * Drop some 2**32 size checks in there; it's not really a problem
      in practice.
  + s/__func/func__locked/
  + Test program: hash with tb_hash_func5

Thanks,

		Emilio

This option is unused; besides, it bloats the struct when not needed.
Let's just let writers define their own locks elsewhere.

It is a more appropriate name, now that the mutex embedded
in the seqlock is gone.

This way we can acquire the lock with xchg+test, instead of test+xchg+test.
Most spinlocks should be uncontended so this should result in a ne
performance gain.

Before:

  4ad960:       f3 90                   pause
  4ad962:       8b 03                   mov    (%rbx),%eax
  4ad964:       85 c0                   test   %eax,%eax
  4ad966:       75 f8                   jne    4ad960 <qht_insert+0x30>

  4ad96c:       85 c0                   test   %eax,%eax
  4ad96e:       75 f2                   jne    4ad962 <qht_insert+0x32>

This will be used by upcoming changes for hashing the tb hash.

Add this into a separate file to include the copyright notice from
xxhash.

For some workloads such as arm bootup, tb_phys_hash is performance-critical.
The is due to the high frequency of accesses to the hash table, originated
by (frequent) TLB flushes that wipe out the cpu-private tb_jmp_cache's.
More info:
  https://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2016-03/msg05098.html

To dig further into this I modified an arm image booting debian jessie to
immediately shut down after boot. Analysis revealed that quite a bit of time
is unnecessarily spent in tb_phys_hash: the cause is poor hashing that
results in very uneven loading of chains in the hash table's buckets;
the longest observed chain had ~550 elements.

The appended addresses this with two changes:

1) Use xxhash as the hash table's hash function. xxhash is a fast,
   high-quality hashing function.

2) Feed the hashing function with not just tb_phys, but also pc and flags.

This improves performance over using just tb_phys for hashing, since that
resulted in some hash buckets having many TB's, while others getting very few;
with these changes, the longest observed chain on a single hash bucket is
brought down from ~550 to ~40.

Tests show that the other element checked for in tb_find_physical,
cs_base, is always a match when tb_phys+pc+flags are a match,
so hashing cs_base is wasteful. It could be that this is an ARM-only
thing, though.

BTW, after this change the hash table should not be called "tb_hash_phys"
anymore; this is addressed later in this series.

This change gives consistent bootup time improvements. I tested two
host machines:
- Intel Xeon E5-2690: 11.6% less time
- Intel i7-4790K: 19.2% less time

Increasing the number of hash buckets yields further improvements. However,
using a larger, fixed number of buckets can degrade performance for other
workloads that do not translate as many blocks (600K+ for debian-jessie arm
bootup). This is dealt with later in this series.

pick up my review on v3. I have been benchmarking though and I like what

If we are throwing true and false around as the only two values can we
use bool here and be consistent when setting/clearing.

Not that it matters much, but for the record there's an ICC inspired builtin in
<xmmintrin.h> for this: _mm_pause().  But so long as we're always using gcc or
clang, that's probably just an extra dependency to worry about.

I really really don't like ; snuggled up behind loop conditions.
Isn't this where you want to use pause, anyway?

Except that quite a lot of hosts can only (efficiently) do atomic operations on
a minimum of 4 byte quantities.  I'd rather continue to use int here.

And merge this one as well, please.  It's a good improvement, but there's

I suspect bool == unsigned int underneath. But having true/false and 0/1 mixed up
gets confusing even if they are equivalent.

Sometimes sizeof(bool) == 1.

sizeof(bool) == 1 everywhere except MacOSX, where it's 4.

Hm, that's too strange:

$ gcc a.c
a.c: In function ‘main’:
a.c:6:5: warning: format ‘%d’ expects argument of type ‘int’, but
argument 2 has type ‘long unsigned int’ [-Wformat=]
     printf("%d\n", sizeof(bool));
     ^
$ ./a.out
1


Kind regards,
Sergey
