[Qemu-devel] [Bug 1763536] [NEW] go build fails under qemu-ppc64le-static (qemu-user)

[David Wilder]

Public bug reported:

I am using qemu-user (built static) in a docker container environment.
When running multi-threaded go commands in the container (go build for
example) the process may hang, report segfaults or other errors.  I
built qemu-ppc64le from the upstream git (master).

I see the problem running on a multi core system with Intel i7 processors.
# cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep "model name"
model name      : Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-2760QM CPU @ 2.40GHz
model name      : Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-2760QM CPU @ 2.40GHz
model name      : Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-2760QM CPU @ 2.40GHz
model name      : Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-2760QM CPU @ 2.40GHz
model name      : Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-2760QM CPU @ 2.40GHz
model name      : Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-2760QM CPU @ 2.40GHz
model name      : Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-2760QM CPU @ 2.40GHz
model name      : Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-2760QM CPU @ 2.40GHz

Steps to reproduce:
1) Build qemu-ppc64le as static and copy into docker build directory named it 
qemu-ppc64le-static.

2) Add hello.go to docker build dir.

package main
import "fmt"
func main() {
        fmt.Println("hello world")
}

3) Create the Dockerfile from below:

FROM ppc64le/golang:1.10.1-alpine3.
COPY qemu-ppc64le-static /usr/bin/
COPY hello.go /go

4) Build container
$ docker build -t qemutest -f Dockerfile ./go 

5) Run test
$ docker run -it qemutest

Note the results may differ between attempts,  hangs and other faults sometimes 
happen.

If I run "go: single threaded I don't see the problem, for example:

/go # GOMAXPROCS=1 go build -p 1 hello.go 
/go # ./hello
hello world

I see the same issue with arm64.  I don't think this is a go issue, but
don't have a real evidence to prove that.  This problem looks similar to
other problem I have seen reported against qemu running multi-threaded
applications.
