Public bug reported:
Emacs (gtk3) exited with bus error and core dumped with -vga qxl. If I
use the builtin modesetting xorg driver, emacs could survive for a short
while sometimes. If I use xf86-video-qxl (git r587.8babd05), it dies
right away with the same error. It seems to corrupt xorg at some point
as well, because sometimes I cannot exit i3 properly and gnome-terminal
can go crazy afterwards (all letters become empty retangles).
It doesn't seem to happen with other -vga driver.
Error message is attached. Can also provide the core dumped but it's of
47M.
I started the vm as root (sudo) with the following command: qemu-system-
x86_64 -enable-kvm -m 4G -virtfs
local,mount_tag=qemu,security_model=passthrough,path=/mnt/qemu/ -kernel
/mnt/qemu/boot/vmlinuz-linux -initrd /mnt/qemu/boot/initramfs-linux-
fallback.img -append 'rw root=qemu fstype=9p' -usbdevice tablet -vga qxl
-spice port=12345,disable-ticketing
