For the general DEBUG_HEX messages, I think the trace infrastructure isn't
quite what I'm looking for.
Here's a sample of what it prints
Start packet: pc = 0x4002f0
Packet committed: pc = 0x4002f0
Regs written
r18 = -69420 (0xfffef0d4)
r19 = -69412 (0xfffef0dc)
Stores
memd[0xfffef0b0] = 0 (0x0000000000000000)
Next PC = 0x4002f8
Exec counters: pkt = 17, insn = 24, hvx = 0
For performance, I'd like a way to disable them completely when --enable-debug
isn't passed to configure. It looks like #ifdef CONFIG_DEBUG_TCG will work for
this. Then, I'd like a command-line option to turn them on. The "-d exec"
seems like a reasonable place. So, the code will look like this
#ifdef CONFIG_DEBUG_TCG
if (qemu_loglevel_maks(CPU_LOG_EXEC)) {
qemu_log(...);
}
#endif
Please let me know if I'm on the right track here.
Thanks,
Taylor

You can have a look to the trace infrastructure (docs/devel/tracing.txt). We
have also some qemu_log() macros for low level debugging.

You should add target/hexagon first, and it should not be build as we don't
have any target (hexagon-linux-user or hexagon-softmmu), then you can add
linux-user part that will be built and use the target/hexagone CPU. I think the
configure part should go to the linux-user part as it enables the build.
I asked to split the patch for review purpose, but this should not break
anything (to allow bisect).
