would not be the result. Therefore chase_into_ok should disallow
following into #2. That will force the caller to eventually

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
x86
~~~
Generated code should be entered using a CALL instruction. On
entry, %ebp should point to the guest state, and %esp should be a
valid stack pointer. The generated code may change %eax, %ebx,
%ecx, %edx, %esi, %edi, all the FP registers and control state, and
all the XMM registers.
On entry, the FPU control word should be set to 0x027F, and the SSE
control word (%mxcsr) should be set to 0x1F80. On exit, they
should still have those values (after masking off the lowest 6 bits
of %mxcsr). If they don't, there is a bug in VEX-generated code.
Generated code returns to the scheduler using a RET instruction.
%eax (or %eax:%edx, if simulating a 64-bit target) will contain the
guest address of the next block to execute.
CRITICAL ISSUES in x86 code generation. The only known critical
issue is that the host FPU and SSE state is not properly saved
across calls to helper functions. If any helper references any
such state, it is likely (1) to misbehave itself, since the FP
stack tags will not be as expected, and (2) after returning to
generated code, the generated code is likely to go wrong. This
really should be fixed.
ALL GUEST ARCHITECTURES
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The architecture must contain two pseudo-registers, guest_TISTART
and guest_TILEN. These are used to pass the address of areas of
guest code, translations of which are to be invalidated, back to
the despatcher. Both pseudo-regs must have size equal to the guest
word size.
