[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v3 25/25] tcg: Check for overflow via highwater mark


From: Richard Henderson
Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH v3 25/25] tcg: Check for overflow via highwater mark
Date: Tue, 22 Sep 2015 13:25:07 -0700

We currently pre-compute an worst case code size for any TB, which
works out to be 122kB.  Since the average TB size is near 1kB, this
wastes quite a lot of storage.

Instead, check for overflow in between generating code for each opcode.
The overhead of the check isn't measurable and wastage is minimized.
