OK, thanks.

When I run WeChat.exe with i386 wine with qemu-i386 under sw_64 arch.

 - The related command:

   "./i386-linux-user/qemu-i386 -strace -L /upstream/i386_wine 
/upstream/i386_wine/usr/local/bin/wine "C:\\Program 
Files\\Tencent\\WeChat\\WeChat.exe" > ana/try/info-strace.log 2>&1"

 - The related output (no any munmap, 135168 = 128KB + 4KB):

   4600 
mmap2(0x00340000,135168,PROT_READ,MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS|MAP_FIXED,-1,0) = 
0x00340000
   4600 mmap2(0x00340000,135168,PROT_READ,MAP_SHARED|MAP_FIXED,8,0) = 0x00340000
   4600 rt_sigprocmask(SIG_SETMASK,0x0033f574,NULL) = 0
   4600 rt_sigprocmask(SIG_BLOCK,0x7bced7e0,0x0033f5d0) = 0
   4600 write(3,0x33f6cc,64) = 64
   4600 read(4,0x33f6cc,64) = 1
   4600 rt_sigprocmask(SIG_SETMASK,0x0033f5d0,NULL) = 0
   4600 close(8) = 0
   4600 rt_sigprocmask(SIG_BLOCK,0x7bced7e0,0x0033f674) = 0
   4600 mprotect(0x00160000,65536,PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE) = 0
   4600 rt_sigprocmask(SIG_SETMASK,0x0033f674,NULL) = 0
   4600 rt_sigprocmask(SIG_BLOCK,0x7bced7e0,0x0033f990) = 0
   4600 
mmap2(0x00340000,135168,PROT_NONE,MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS|MAP_FIXED|MAP_NORESERVE,-1,0)
 = 0x00340000

wine often does like above, map the same position multiple times.

Also yes to me.

Also yes to me.

For the case I provide above, it can call mmap_frag() twice for the same
host page.

By the way, after have a full test again, all related issues are OK, it
seems we need not this patch to fix current issues, it is really very
strange to me!(maybe it is fixed by my other patches? I don't know)

At present, our sw_64 qemu-i386 status:

 - Can run notepad.exe correctly, can run acdsee5.0.exe setup program
   successfully.

 - The performance is acceptable, after optimize the wine code (simply
   use 32 split times instead of 2 for reserve_area recursion), the
   initialization speed is really quick enough. :-)

 - When run WeChat.exe, it can popup connection GUI box, but will quit
   under sw_64. But for x86_64 qemu-i386, it can run WeChat.exe
   correctly (although after enter main gui, it is not stable enough).


Thanks.
