I'm porting qemu to an new architecture. I come across some difficulty that I can't define the timing that enable qemu's main-thread to be interrupt and check external interrupt .
I understand the way that mips used to check external interrupt . in qemu-system-mips , during do translation , if there is an instruction that access CP0's Status register and Cause register, the "target-mips/translate.c" will add a calling to function " helper_interrupt_restart" in the end of the translation_block. But in my architecture which use "load/st" instruction to access the contr register in interrupt controller . Because I can't distinguish the access for normal memory and access for interrupt controller's register , I can't add "interrupt_restart" function calling in the end of translation block. How can I do to enable qemu have chance to check external interrupt ?
