                     32: - fix all remaining thread lock issues (must put TBs in a specific invalid
                     33:   state, find a solution for tb_flush()).
                     34: - fix arm fpu rounding (at least for float->integer conversions)
                     35: 
                     36: ppc specific:

                     38: - TLB invalidate not needed if msr_pr changes
                     39: - SPR_ENCODE() not useful

                     41: 
1.1.1.2 ! root       42: linux-user specific:
        !            43: -------------------
1.1       root       44: - add IPC syscalls
                     45: - handle rare page fault cases (in particular if page fault in helpers or
                     46:   in syscall emulation code).
                     47: - more syscalls (in particular all 64 bit ones, IPCs, fix 64 bit
                     48:   issues, fix 16 bit uid issues)
                     49: - use page_unprotect_range in every suitable syscall to handle all
                     50:   cases of self modifying code.
1.1.1.2 ! root       51: - fix thread stack freeing (use kernel 2.5.x CLONE_CHILD_CLEARTID)
        !            52: - use kernel traps for unaligned accesses on ARM ?
        !            53: 
        !            54: 
        !            55: lower priority:
        !            56: --------------
        !            57: - int15 ah=86: use better timing
        !            58: - suppress shift_mem ops
        !            59: - fix some 16 bit sp push/pop overflow (pusha/popa, lcall lret)
        !            60: - optimize FPU operations (evaluate x87 stack pointer statically)
        !            61: - use -msoft-float on ARM
