Use of prefetching in bufferiszero.c is quite questionable:
- prefetches are issued just a few CPU cycles before the corresponding
line would be hit by demand loads;
- they are done for simple access patterns, i.e. where hardware
prefetchers can perform better;
- they compete for load ports in loops that should be limited by load
port throughput rather than ALU throughput.

Thanks to early checks in the inline buffer_is_zero wrapper, the SIMD
routines are invoked much more rarely in normal use when most buffers
are non-zero. This makes use of AVX512 unprofitable, as it incurs extra
frequency and voltage transition periods during which the CPU operates
at reduced performance, as described in

The SSE4.1 variant is virtually identical to the SSE2 variant, except
for using 'PTEST+JNZ' in place of 'PCMPEQB+PMOVMSKB+CMP+JNE' for testing
if an SSE register is all zeroes. The PTEST instruction decodes to two
uops, so it can be handled only by the complex decoder, and since
CMP+JNE are macro-fused, both sequences decode to three uops. The uops
comprising the PTEST instruction dispatch to p0 and p5 on Intel CPUs, so
PCMPEQB+PMOVMSKB is comparatively more flexible from dispatch
standpoint.
Hence, the use of PTEST brings no benefit from throughput standpoint.
Its latency is not important, since it feeds only a conditional jump,
which terminates the dependency chain.
I never observed PTEST variants to be faster on real hardware.

The DMA descriptor structures for this device have
a set of "address extension" fields which extend the 32
bit source addresses with an extra 16 bits to give a
48 bit address:
https://docs.amd.com/r/en-US/ug1085-zynq-ultrascale-trm/ADDR_EXT-Field
However, we misimplemented this address extension in several ways:
* we only extracted 12 bits of the extension fields, not 16
* we didn't shift the extension field up far enough
* we accidentally did the shift as 32-bit arithmetic, which
meant that we would have an overflow instead of setting
bits [47:32] of the resulting 64-bit address
Add a type cast and use extract64() instead of extract32()
to avoid integer overflow on addition. Fix bit fields
extraction according to documentation.

In previous versions of the Arm architecture, the frequency of the
generic timers as reported in CNTFRQ_EL0 could be any IMPDEF value,
and for QEMU we picked 62.5MHz, giving a timer tick period of 16ns.
In Armv8.6, the architecture standardized this frequency to 1GHz.
Because there is no ID register feature field that indicates whether
a CPU is v8.6 or that it ought to have this counter frequency, we
implement this by changing our default CNTFRQ value for all CPUs,
with exceptions for backwards compatibility:
* CPU types which we already implement will retain the old
default value. None of these are v8.6 CPUs, so this is
architecturally OK.
* CPUs used in versioned machine types with a version of 9.0
or earlier will retain the old default value.
The upshot is that the only CPU type that changes is 'max'; but any
new type we add in future (whether v8.6 or not) will also get the new
1GHz default.
It remains the case that the machine model can override the default
value via the 'cntfrq' QOM property (regardless of the CPU type).

Currently the sbsa_gdwt watchdog device hardcodes its frequency at
62.5MHz. In real hardware, this watchdog is supposed to be driven
from the system counter, which also drives the CPU generic timers.
Newer CPU types (in particular from Armv8.6) should have a CPU
generic timer frequency of 1GHz, so we can't leave the watchdog
on the old QEMU default of 62.5GHz.
Make the frequency a QOM property so it can be set by the board,
and have our only board that uses this device set that frequency
to the same value it sets the CPU frequency.

Currently QEMU CPUs always run with a generic timer counter frequency
of 62.5MHz, but ARMv8.6 CPUs will run at 1GHz. For older versions of
the TF-A firmware that sbsa-ref runs, the frequency of the generic
timer is hardcoded into the firmware, and so if the CPU actually has
a different frequency then timers in the guest will be set
incorrectly.
The default frequency used by the 'max' CPU is about to change, so
make the sbsa-ref board force the CPU frequency to the value which
the firmware expects.
Newer versions of TF-A will read the frequency from the CPU's
CNTFRQ_EL0 register:
4c77fac98d
so in the longer term we could make this board use the 1GHz
frequency. We will need to make sure we update the binaries used
by our avocado test
Aarch64SbsarefMachine.test_sbsaref_alpine_linux_max_pauth_impdef
before we can do that.
