Since OpenBSD 6.0 [1], W^X is enforced by default [2]. TCG requires WX access, and QEMU binaries are now built with the WX flag to disable the protection. However, WX allowed binaries need to be run on a WX allowed partition. To be able to run the QEMU test suite on the VM, mount the partition where QEMU is built/tested as WX allowed.
