[qemu-x86-64-linux-user 1.6.1] qemu: uncaught target signal 11 (Segmentation fault) - core dumped

Rjsupplicant is an authentication client of Campus Network in most universities in China. Its Linux version has only x86 and amd64 version.

On linux:

./qemu-x86_64 is compiled from latest qemu 1.6.1, with ./configure options: --enable-debug --target-list=x86_64-linux-user . Compiler is gcc version 4.7.3 (Debian 4.7.3-4) 

$ sudo ./qemu-x86_64  ./rjsupplicant -n eth0 -u USER -p PASS -d 1 -s internet

$ file rjsupplicant 
rjsupplicant: ELF 64-bit LSB  executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.6.9, not stripped

$ uname -r

And it can be run on Linux amd64 successfully.

Though I don't have the source code of rjsupplicant, so I don't have further information.

`qemu-x86_64 -strace ./rjsupplicant -n eth0 -u USER -p PASS -d 1 -s internet` is attached as strace_qemu.log


The binary is available to download at http://ge.tt/6pgG1tw/v/0



and, `strace ./rjsuuplicant -n eth0 -u USER -p PASS -d 1 -s internet` is attached as strace_native.log

I'm not sure x86*-linux-user targets are being tested at all.  Last time I checked, x86-64 variant crashed left and right to the point of being completely unusable...

The backtrace indicates that this is a multithreaded application. These won't work reliably under qemu-user : they tend to crash, as you have found. 

Triaging old bug tickets... can you still reproduce this issue with the latest version of QEMU? Or could we close this ticket nowadays?
