** Description changed:
I've found a regression in qemu-user-static. I'm using binfmt to run
riscv64 application on an x86-64.
Steps to reproduce (using golang for ease of cross-compiling):
--
$ cat rv.go
package main
import (
- "fmt"
- "os"
+ "fmt"
+ "os"
)
func main() {
- fmt.Println("Args are");
- for i, a := range os.Args {
- fmt.Println(i, a);
- }
+ fmt.Println("Args are");
+ for i, a := range os.Args {
+ fmt.Println(i, a);
+ }
}
$ go build ./rv.go
$ ./rv one two three
Args are
0 ./rv
1 one
2 two
3 three
$ export GOARCH=riscv64
$ go build ./rv.go
$ file ./rv
./rv: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, UCB RISC-V, version 1 (SYSV),
statically linked, Go
BuildID=9kA-_aeKgZkwtyYVUb7o/F43JNW5XxPX9ScBQrfs8/l6EzXXq8x8pfor-ByIh4/_zELq4T9-VKcpBXoempb,
not stripped
$ ./rv
Args are
0 ./rv
$ ./rv one
Args are
0 ./rv
$ ./rv one two three four
Args are
0 ./rv
1 two
2 three
3 four
$

As you can see, in the last run, the "one" argument is skipped.
There is a debian patch, linux-user-binfmt-P.diff (found in
qemu_6.0+dfsg-2expubuntu1.debian.tar.xz), that I think is the issue.
When we execute the binfmt-interpreter directly:
$ /usr/libexec/qemu-binfmt/riscv64-binfmt-P /path/to/rv /path/to/rv one two
Args are
0 /path/to/rv
1 one
2 two
Things work, however via the kernels binfmt-misc:
$ /path/to/rv one two
Args are
0 /path/to/rv
1 two
It doesn't.
-
- $ cat /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc/qemu-riscv64
+
+ $ cat /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc/qemu-riscv64
enabled
interpreter /usr/libexec/qemu-binfmt/riscv64-binfmt-P
flags: POCF
offset 0
magic 7f454c460201010000000000000000000200f300
mask ffffffffffffff00fffffffffffffffffeffffff
Note that the 'P' flag is set.
From the qemu code (linux-user/main.c):
- /*
- * get binfmt_misc flags
- */
- preserve_argv0 = !!(qemu_getauxval(AT_FLAGS) & AT_FLAGS_PRESERVE_ARGV0);
+ /*
+ * get binfmt_misc flags
+ */
+ preserve_argv0 = !!(qemu_getauxval(AT_FLAGS) & AT_FLAGS_PRESERVE_ARGV0);
- /*
- * Manage binfmt-misc preserve-arg[0] flag
- * argv[optind] full path to the binary
- * argv[optind + 1] original argv[0]
- */
- if (optind + 1 < argc && preserve_argv0) {
- optind++;
- }
+ /*
+ * Manage binfmt-misc preserve-arg[0] flag
+ * argv[optind] full path to the binary
+ * argv[optind + 1] original argv[0]
+ */
+ if (optind + 1 < argc && preserve_argv0) {
+ optind++;
+ }
Here, having P enabled will skip the argument.
I believe the debian patch needs to be reworked
(https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2021-02/msg04639.html).
+
+ This breaks the ability to run debootstrap/mmdebstap for foreign archs.
