Good idea! May I call vm_stop() in a tcg helper? Like in the following
example:
void helper_vm_stop(uint32_t msg_id)
{
if (qemu_log_enabled()) {
qemu_log("VM stopped: %s", err_msg_str[msg_id]);
} else {
fprintf(stderr, "VM stopped: %s", err_msg_str[msg_id]);
}
#ifndef CONFIG_USER_ONLY
vm_stop(0);
#endif
env->exception_index = EXCP_HALTED;
cpu_loop_exit();
}
If not, what is the proper way to stop/pause the VM from within the executed
code?
