    "content": "This patchset gets rid of a couple of uses of HELPER_H to pull in the\nTCG helper function prototypes in files that aren't in\ntarget/arm/tcg:\n\n - debug_helper.c has a lot of TCG only code that can\n   happily live in a new tcg/debug.c file instead, and only\n   the CONFIG_TCG code was using the helper prototypes\n - helper.c was calling exactly one TCG helper function\n   directly, and can be made to call a different function\n   instead for the same effect\n\nPierrick: these might be helpful for you with getting the target/arm\nsingle-binary series to compile when TCG is disabled.  I think it\nmight be best to avoid having a single helper.h that gives both the\nhelper_foo and the gen_helper_foo prototypes, though: even if it\ndoesn't cause compilation failures, only translate*.c need all the\ninline definitions of gen_helper_foo. If you take that approach\nthen it would fix the compile errors without needing these patches.\n\n(I did wonder if we could move target/arm/helper.h into the\ntcg/ subdirectory, since it really is TCG-specific, but it looks\nlike the machinery in include/exec/helper* assumes that the target\nhas a helper.h in its top level directory.)\n\nthanks\n-- PMM\n\nPeter Maydell (2):\n  target/arm: Move TCG-specific code out of debug_helper.c\n  target/arm: Don't require helper prototypes in helper.c\n\n target/arm/debug_helper.c                  | 769 ---------------------\n target/arm/helper.c                        |   5 +-\n target/arm/{debug_helper.c => tcg/debug.c} | 542 +--------------\n target/arm/tcg/meson.build                 |   2 +\n 4 files changed, 4 insertions(+), 1314 deletions(-)\n copy target/arm/{debug_helper.c => tcg/debug.c} (53%)"
