[PATCH v7 0/6] plugins: access values during a memory read/write

[Pierrick Bouvier]

This series allows plugins to know which value is read/written during a memory
access.

For every memory access, we know copy this value before calling mem callbacks,
and those can query it using new API function:
- qemu_plugin_mem_get_value

Mem plugin was extended to print accesses, and a new test was added to check
functionality work as expected. A bug was found where callbacks were not
called as expected.

This will open new use cases for plugins, such as tracking specific values in
memory.

Needs review:
Patch 7: tests/tcg/multiarch: add test for plugin memory access

v7
- renamed variable for adding plugins tests in Makefile
- do not run any command when plugin output should not be checked (thanks Alex)
- add LICENSE + summary for tests/tcg/multiarch/test-plugin-mem-access.c
- test for mem access is now multiarch (tested on aarch64, x86_64, i386)

v6
- fix big endian offset for plugin_gen_mem_callbacks_i32

v5
- fixed width output for mem values in mem plugin
- move plugin_mem_value to CPUNegativeOffset
- tcg/tcg-op-ldst.c: only store word size mem access (do not set upper bits)

v4
- fix prototype for stubs qemu_plugin_vcpu_mem_cb (inverted low/high parameters
  names)
- link gitlab bugs resolved (thanks @Anton Kochkov for reporting)
  https://gitlab.com/qemu-project/qemu/-/issues/1719
  https://gitlab.com/qemu-project/qemu/-/issues/2152

v3
- simplify API: return an algebraic data type for value accessed
  this can be easily extended when QEMU will support wider accesses
- fix Makefile test (use quiet-command instead of manually run the command)
- rename upper/lower to high/low
- reorder functions parameters and code to low/high instead of high/low, to
  follow current convention in QEMU codebase

v2
- fix compilation on aarch64 (missing undef in accel/tcg/atomic_template.h)

v3
- add info when printing memory accesses (insn_vaddr,mem_vaddr,mem_hwaddr)

Pierrick Bouvier (6):
  plugins: save value during memory accesses
  plugins: extend API to get latest memory value accessed
  tests/tcg: add mechanism to run specific tests with plugins
  tests/tcg: allow to check output of plugins
  tests/plugin/mem: add option to print memory accesses
  tests/tcg/multiarch: add test for plugin memory access
