[Qemu-devel] qemu-arm fails on test-mmap - take #2

[Jan-Simon Möller]

Hi !

This is a follow-up to my tests about test-mmap failing inside an arm chroot 
when using qemu-arm in user-mode.

Here are 2 snippets running   "qemu-arm ./test-mmap"  outside and inside the 
ARM chroot env.

I turned DEBUG_MMAP on in linux-user/mmap.c .

legolas:/var/tmp/build-root # ./usr/bin/qemu-arm test-mmap

Note the last 2 lines !!

Now same procedure inside the chroot ...
legolas:/> chroot /var/tmp/build-root
legolas:/> ./test-mmap

The lines with 60000000-60166000 are gone ... 
Thus as soon as those pages will get allocated  it will segfault.

This is reproducible on different machines:
1)
openSUSE 11.1 64bit on Core 2 Duo  with 2GB Ram, qemu git head
The ARM chroot uses gcc4.4 and glibc 2.10.1 .

2)
openSUSE 11.0 32bit  Athlon XP 2GB RAM, same qemu, same chroot


Now my question is: how is the data of the already blocked pages 
processed/aquired ? It seems to me that the pages get "lost" somewhere.


Best,
