Public bug reported:
When launching qemu-system-i386 or qemu-system-x86_64 with 1 MB of RAM
allocated to the guest (-m 1) and no guest image specified, QEMU will
crash while trying to "execute code outside of RAM or ROM" after
approximately 10 minutes. I discovered this while using QEMU 2.5.0, but
I verified that it also occurs with 2.5.1.1 and the latest source
available in git (2.6.50, commit
d6550e9ed2e1a60d889dfb721de00d9a4e3bafbe). I built all of these
different versions of QEMU on the same 64-bit Ubuntu 14.04.3 host using
the distro's default GCC 4.8.4.
Two observations:
1. This only occurs when allocating 1 MB of RAM to the guest. When I
allocate 2 MB, this does not happen. I tried running both i386/x86_64
QEMUs for hours with 2 MB and didn't observe this crash.
2. This may be a SeaBIOS bug, as there is no guest code to execute.
After enabling the SeaBIOS debug at the ISA 0x402 port and redirecting
it to stdio, the last SeaBIOS state transition reported ("Booting from
ROM... Booting from c980:0361") occurs immediately at QEMU startup with
no further logging messages seen prior to the crash ten minutes later.
My captured SeaBIOS debug output is here: http://pastebin.com/GXm2L44E
To reproduce, use the following command lines:
./i386-softmmu/qemu-system-i386 -display none -m 1 -monitor stdio
./x86_64-softmmu/qemu-system-x86_64 -display none -m 1 -monitor stdio
For both 32/64-bit QEMUs, the output is the same. After running for
about 10 minutes (I've seen it take between 7m 15s (v2.5.1.1) to 10m 25s
(v2.6.50) of runtime to occur by using the "time" command), the
following output is shown:

qemu-system-i386/x86_64 crash with 1 MB guest RAM
