We ask TCG to disassemble the guest binary where the trace beginning with _again_ to get a set of TCG blocks, then sent them to the LLVM translator. > > the moment (make the situation simpler), I think we still don't have to > > check > > the blocks' hflags and segment descriptors in the trace to see if they > > match. > > Yeah.

Sync'ed with the invalidation means tb_flush, cpu_unlink and tb_phys_invalidate?
