If we access a register via the QEMU memory inspection commands (e.g.
"xp") rather than from guest code, we won't have a CPU context.
Gracefully fail to access the register in that case, rather than
crashing.

Can't we set cpu_single_env in the debug memory access case? I'm not sure this is the only device with that problem, and by always having cpu_single_env available we would completely get rid of the whole bug category.

Which CPU would you pick?

The boot CPU.

So, how would we go about doing this?  cpu_single_env is declared as  
thread-local storage.  Even if there's some way to deliberately inspect  
a different thread's local storage, I don't see how you'd get it to  
work automatically without changing all those drivers (and are there  
really that many that care about the CPU?) -- and we might break other  
places that already check whether cpu_single_env is NULL.

FWIW, hw/pc.c does pretty much the same thing as this patch in  
cpu_get_current_apic().

Ok, convinced :). Patch applied to ppc-next. Thanks ;)

The long term fix for both openpic and LAPIC is to introduce a CPU
specific address space and then instantiate a device for each CPU. The
memory inspection commands probably need to specify the CPU.
