[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 0/4] target-arm: get IT bits right at exceptions |

This patchset (when combined with my previous patchset "Translate
based on TB flags, not CPUState") is a fix for
https://bugs.launchpad.net/qemu/+bug/581335
where we were not getting the IT (conditional execution) bits in
the CPSR right when we took an unexpected exception in Thumb mode.
The linux-user patch fixes an issue exposed by fixing this, where we
weren't clearing the IT bits before entering the signal handler, so
that if we took the signal inside an IT block the first part of the
signal handler wouldn't be executed.
The first two patches in the series and the long comment in patch 4
are aimed at making it a bit clearer how we handle the IT bits; it
took me quite a long time to figure out exactly what the existing
code was doing...
Peter Maydell (4):
target-arm: Remove redundant setting of IT bits before Thumb SWI
target-arm: Refactor translation of exception generating instructions
linux-user: ARM: clear the IT bits when invoking a signal handler
target-arm: Restore IT bits when resuming after an exception
