632          placed in the host's standard return register (x86: %eax,

634          state pointer register (on host x86: %ebp; amd64: %rbp;

636          special action required before the next block is run.
637 
638          Control is then passed back to the dispatcher (beyond Vex's
639          control; caller supplies this) in the following way:
640 
641          - On host archs which lack a link register (x86, amd64), by a
642            jump to the host address specified in
643            'dispatcher_assisted', if the guest state pointer has been
644            changed so as to request some action before the next block
645            is run, or 'dispatcher_unassisted' (the fast path), in
646            which it is assumed that the guest state pointer is
647            unchanged and we wish to continue directly with the next
648            translation.  Both of these must be non-NULL.
649 
650          - On host archs which have a link register (ppc32, ppc64), by
651            a branch to the link register (which is guaranteed to be
652            unchanged from whatever it was at entry to the
653            translation).  'dispatch_assisted' and
654            'dispatch_unassisted' must be NULL.
655 
656          The aim is to get back and forth between translations and the
657          dispatcher without creating memory traffic to store return
658          addresses.

772    CRITICAL ISSUES in x86 code generation.  The only known critical
773    issue is that the host FPU and SSE state is not properly saved
774    across calls to helper functions.  If any helper references any
775    such state, it is likely (1) to misbehave itself, since the FP
776    stack tags will not be as expected, and (2) after returning to
777    generated code, the generated code is likely to go wrong.  This
778    really should be fixed.

780    amd64
781    ~~~~~
782    Analogous to x86.
783 
784    ppc32
785    ~~~~~
786    On entry, guest state pointer is r31.  .dispatch must be NULL.
787    Control is returned with a branch to the link register.  Generated
788    code will not change lr.  At return, r3 holds the next guest addr
789    (or r3:r4 ?).  r31 may be may be changed to a VEX_TRC_ value,
790    otherwise it should be as it was at entry.
791 
792    ppc64
793    ~~~~~
794    Same as ppc32.
795 
796    ALL GUEST ARCHITECTURES
797    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
798    The guest state must contain two pseudo-registers, guest_TISTART
799    and guest_TILEN.  These are used to pass the address of areas of
800    guest code, translations of which are to be invalidated, back to
801    the despatcher.  Both pseudo-regs must have size equal to the guest
802    word size.
803 
804    The architecture must a third pseudo-register, guest_NRADDR, also
805    guest-word-sized.  This is used to record the unredirected guest
806    address at the start of a translation whose start has been
807    redirected.  By reading this pseudo-register shortly afterwards,
808    the translation can find out what the corresponding no-redirection
809    address was.  Note, this is only set for wrap-style redirects, not
810    for replace-style ones.
