The user provided a detailed description of the issue they're facing when running an Alpine Linux AArch64 rootfs with gcc in QEMU. The problem seems related to how QEMU maps the ELF interpreter at address 0, which is causing issues for the Musl dynamic linker and leading to segfaults. + +First, I'll read through the bug report again to understand it better. It mentions that under certain conditions, QEMU's user-mode emulation maps the ELF interpreter at guest address 0. This is problematic because Linux doesn't allow anything to be mapped at the first page of the virtual address space, which starts at 0. Musl interprets a NULL base address as being invoked directly, leading it to compute its base incorrectly. + +The issue arises in `load_elf_image()`, where `load_addr` is set to 0 for the interpreter. This value is passed to `target_mmap()`. The user isn't sure if `target_mmap()` should treat an addr of 0 as a request to let the implementation choose, or if it's meant to map at 0. + +In QEMU's user-mode, the guest address is translated to host using `g2h_untagged()`, which for start=0 would translate to 0 in host space. This causes the kernel to place the mapping at 0, violating the policy and causing issues with libraries like Musl. + +The user suggests several possible fixes: modifying `load_elf_image()` to prevent NULL load_addr, changing how NULLs are passed to target_mmap(), adjusting translation functions to treat NULL as such, or reserving guest VA space's first page when `guest_base` is nonzero. + +Looking at the patch provided, it seems they modified the mmap functions to pass 0 instead of a translated address when start is 0. This likely prevents the host kernel from mapping at 0, avoiding the issue. + +Now, classifying this bug: The problem occurs during user-mode emulation in QEMU, which involves translating guest addresses to host addresses. Specifically, it's about how the interpreter's load address is handled. Since it's related to how instructions or data are mapped from the source architecture (guest) to the target (host), it seems like a mistranslation issue. + +Wait, but another possibility is 'assembly' since it's about mapping and loading of the binary into memory. But 'mistranslation' might be more accurate because it's about incorrect semantic handling during address translation. + +Alternatively, maybe it's under 'other' if none of the specific categories fit better. However, considering that the issue involves mapping addresses incorrectly from guest to host space, which is part of the emulation process, 'mistranslation' seems appropriate. +</think> + +The bug report discusses an issue where QEMU maps the ELF interpreter at guest address 0, causing problems with certain libraries like Musl. This relates to how addresses are translated between the guest and host environments during user-mode emulation. The problem is in the mapping process (load_addr) and how it's handled in mmap functions. Therefore, the category is: + +mistranslation \ No newline at end of file |
