Something odd is going on here... Excerpts from the strace: readlink("roc/self/f", 0x81abf80, 4095) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("/0):/usr/libalo/eNG=Sn_UF.UT!\304\27\10P\254\32\10\267\304\27\10\20/LC_IDENTIFICATION", O_RDONLY|O_LARGEFILE) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("/0):/usr/libalo/eNG=Sn_UF.ut/LC_IDENTIFICATION", O_RDONLY|O_LARGEFILE) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("/0):/usr/libalo/eNG=Sn_UF/LC_IDENTIFICATION", O_RDONLY|O_LARGEFILE) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("/0):/usr/libalo/eNG=Sn.UT!\304\27\10P\254\32\10\267\304\27\10\20/LC_IDENTIFICATION", O_RDONLY|O_LARGEFILE) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("/0):/usr/libalo/eNG=Sn.ut/LC_IDENTIFICATION", O_RDONLY|O_LARGEFILE) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("/0):/usr/libalo/eNG=Sn/LC_IDENTIFICATION", O_RDONLY|O_LARGEFILE) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) write(2, "/bin/bash: /bin/: %snnca eotcuxe"..., 47) = 47 That's clearly an attempt to open something in /proc/self, something in /usr/lib/locale/, and to print a "cannot execute" message, but everything's got rather twisted. Swap every two pairs of bytes (or equivalently, rotate sets of four characters by two) in this: : %snnca eotcuxe ...and as if by magic, something comprehensible appears: %s: cannot execu Now, running x86 binaries on an ARM host does work for me, but I've only tested on a Cortex-A8 (ARMv7) host. I think that what's happening here is that qemu is doing unaligned accesses. On ARMv7 unaligned accesses "work", ie you get the word you asked for. On ARMv5 the effect is that the unaligned address is rounded down to a multiple of four, we load 32 bits and then rotate them -- so you get the effects you see above. Short answer: looks like QEMU doesn't currently work on ARMv5 hosts (although ARMv7 are fine). I'll look into this if I can manage to scare up some suitable hardware. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of qemu- devel-ml, which is subscribed to QEMU. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/739785 Title: qemu-i386 user mode on ARMv5 host fails (bash: fork: Invalid argument) Status in QEMU: New Bug description: Good time of day everybody, I have been trying to make usermode qemu on ARM with plugapps (archlinux) with archlinux i386 chroot to work. 1. I installed arch linux in a virtuabox and created a chroot for it with mkarchroot. Transferred it to my pogo plug into /i386/ 2. I comiled qemu-i386 static and put it into /i386/usr/bin/ ./configure --static --disable-blobs --disable-system --target-list=i386-linux-user make 3. I also compiled linux kernel 2.6.38 with CONFIG_BINFMT_MISC=y and installed it. uname -a Linux Plugbox 2.6.38 #4 PREEMPT Fri Mar 18 22:19:10 CDT 2011 armv5tel Feroceon 88FR131 rev 1 (v5l) Marvell SheevaPlug Reference Board GNU/Linux 4.
