Mutex initialization assertion failure due to incompatibility with macOS setrlimit() syscall Description of problem: Running the command with with any set of arguments instantly crashes with the following error message: ``` Assertion failed: (mutex->initialized), function qemu_mutex_lock_impl, file ../util/qemu-thread-posix.c, line 92. zsh: abort ./qemu-system-x86_64 ``` Steps to reproduce: As per instructions for building from scratch: 1. `mkdir build && cd build` 2. `../configure --prefix=$PWD/.. --audio-drv-list=sdl --disable-cocoa --enable-sdl --enable-sdl-image` 3. `make && make install` 4. `cd ../bin` 5. `./qemu-system-x86_64` Additional information: The issue is coming from the `os_setup_limits()` function in `os-posix.c`. As it turns out, the `setrlimit()` syscall behaves subtly different on macOS than on Linux systems, and the macOS man pages explicitly forbade the code on line 273. Line 273 from `os-posix.c`: ``` nofile.rlim_cur = nofile.rlim_max; ``` macOS `setrlimit()` man page: ``` COMPATIBILITY setrlimit() now returns with errno set to EINVAL in places that historically succeeded. It no longer accepts "rlim_cur = RLIM_INFINITY" for RLIM_NOFILE. Use "rlim_cur = min(OPEN_MAX, rlim_max)". ``` The man page thankfully gives us the [patch](/uploads/e7c8c6e3b5620c3b1ee34e89661097f3/qemu.patch)
