Applications run under qemu-aarch64 are misbehaving for me. For example,
minimal (console only) Qt application are crashing on startup, and also the
BusyBox's "df" (disk usage) is printing out silly numbers. While I'm not
positive I suspect these are bugs in qemu.
I build the guest os using buildroot 2018.08.2,
qemu_aarch64_virt_defconfig, and running it as instructed (minus network,
don't need it):
qemu-system-aarch64 -M virt -cpu cortex-a57 -nographic -smp 1 -kernel
output/images/Image -append "root=/dev/vda console=ttyAMA0" -drive
file=output/images/rootfs.ext4,if=none,format=raw,id=hd0 -device
virtio-blk-device,drive=hd0
(Host os is Ubuntu 18.04, QEMU emulator version 2.11.1(Debian
1:2.11+dfsg-1ubuntu7.7))
Can someone confirm this? Any hints would be much appreciated.
While at it, another side question: Is there a reason why the
qemu_aarch64_virt_defconfig built kernel does not include the drivers for
qemu graphics emulation?
Thanks,
Zeno

I have exactly the same host OS and qemu version.

I confirm 'df' printing silly numbers with both these images:
2018.08.2 : https://gitlab.com/RicardoMartincoski/buildroot/-/jobs/122632959
2018.11-rc1 : https://gitlab.com/buildroot.org/buildroot/-/jobs/118747268
On 2018.08.2 I also did this:
make qemu_aarch64_virt_defconfig
make menuconfig # and enable BR2_PACKAGE_HOST_QEMU_SYSTEM_MODE
make host-qemu # to build qemu 2.12.1
output/host/bin/qemu-system-aarch64 ...
and the issue with 'df' still occurs.
On current master (00d63a153d) I did this:
make qemu_aarch64_virt_defconfig
make menuconfig # and enable BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL
make clean
make
qemu-system-aarch64 ... # using the system-provided qemu 2.11.1
and the issue with 'df' does not occur.

This should probably be fixed in uClibc with:
https://git.buildroot.org/buildroot/commit/?id=2179ca4a61b4574854075e4cdc1e2b851fa0d5b3

Indeed, all problems were resolved by changing to glibc. Thanks!

OK, so there's a uClibc-ng bug somewhere. Waldemar ? :-)
