  35 // PURPOSE: This module contains the inner loop of the execution
  36 // mechanism, which is: find next basic block, execute it, repeat until
  37 // the next bb isn't found in the fast-cache; or if the current bb
  38 // exited with a request for some special action before continuing; or
  39 // if the current thread has used up its scheduling quantum.

  45 /* Run translations, with the given guest state, and starting by
  46    running the host code at 'host_addr'.  It is almost always the case
  47    that host_addr is the translation for guest_state.guest_IP, that
  48    is, host_addr is what it would be if we looked up the address of
  49    the translation corresponding to guest_state.guest_IP.
  50
  51    The only case where this isn't true is where we're running a
  52    no-redir translation.  In this case host_addr is the address of the
  53    alternative (non-redirected) translation for guest_state.guest_IP.
  54
  55    The return value must indicate why it returned back to the scheduler.
  56    It can also be exited if the executing code throws a non-resumable
  57    signal, for example SIGSEGV, in which case control longjmp()s back past
  58    here.
  59
  60    two_words holds the return values (two words).  First is
  61    a TRC value.  Second is generally unused, except in the case
  62    where we have to return a chain-me request.
