Public bug reported:

QEMU Version: 5.0.0
./configure --target-list=x86_64-linux-user --enable-user --prefix=/opt/qemu --static

Testing using node_exporter from pmm-client-1.17.4-1.el8.x86_64.rpm

aarch64 system is running CentOS 8 with a mainline 5.4.52 kernel built
for 4KB memory pages.

On aarch64 machine, invoke:

./qemu-x86_64-static /usr/local/percona/pmm-client/node_exporter.x86_64
-web.listen-address=192.168.0.10:42000 -web.auth-file=/usr/local/percona
/pmm-client/pmm.yml -web.ssl-key-file=/usr/local/percona/pmm-
client/server.key -web.ssl-cert-file=/usr/local/percona/pmm-
client/server.crt
-collectors.enabled=diskstats,filefd,filesystem,loadavg,meminfo,netdev,netstat,stat,time,uname,vmstat,meminfo_numa,textfile

Most of the time it will outright segfault within a few seconds,
seemingly when the prometheus server polls for data.

But, about once every 10 times, it will not sefault and will continue
working just fine forever.

The dynamically linked version of qemu (built without --static) always
works without segfaulting, but it just doesn't work, the prometheus
server gets no data from it. Again, once in a while it will work, but
even when it doesn't work it won't segfault.

This vaguely feels like a memory alignment issue somewhere, but my
debug-fu is not quite strong enough to attack the problem.
