They're encountering issues when trying to read memory via `/proc/self/mem`, which isn't working as expected when the program runs under QEMU user-mode emulation. + +First, let's break down what they're seeing. When they run their reproducer (a statically-linked ARM binary) using `qemu-arm ./repro`, it seems that the addresses where certain data is stored don't match between the emulated environment and the host system. In the first case, the program tries to read from 0x6377c, which according to the emulated maps is in a specific segment of the binary. However, on the host, this address is mapped differently. + +In another instance, they tried using `qemu-arm-static` with `binfmt_misc`, and found that the address wasn't even mapped at all on the host. This led to an error when trying to read from `/proc/self/mem`. + +The user provided a lot of details about how the memory maps look different between their own process (the reproducer) and the child process (QEMU). It seems like QEMU is remapping the binary's segments, which messes up the expectations of where certain data should be located in memory. + +They also mentioned that this issue doesn't occur with an aarch64 guest but does happen with i386 guests as well. This suggests it's a problem specific to 32-bit architectures when using QEMU's user-mode emulation. + +So, now I need to classify whether this is a 'user-mode' or 'system-mode' bug in QEMU. User-mode emulation typically deals with executing guest binaries directly on the host without full system virtualization, handling things like instruction translation and memory management for individual processes. System-mode would involve emulating an entire operating system with higher privileges, peripherals, etc. + +In this case, since the issue is occurring when running a single executable under QEMU's user-mode (using `qemu-arm` or `qemu-arm-static`), it seems to be related to how QEMU maps and manages memory for the guest process within the host environment. The problem arises because the expected memory addresses don't align between the emulated environment and the host, causing issues when trying to access `/proc/self/mem`. + +This doesn't seem to involve full system virtualization or device emulation but rather how user processes are handled. Therefore, it's likely a user-mode related issue. +</think> + +user \ No newline at end of file |
