i got some time to create a reproducer (with public code),
temporarily hosting the binaries at
http://port70.net/~nsz/tmp/qemu-bug.tar.gz
~251M
here
echo ./bug.sh | ./qemu-bug.sh
crashes in about 1 minute (where qemu-bug.sh
loads a snapshot with root shell and ./bug.sh
triggers the bug)
the disk rootfs is based on
https://distfiles.adelielinux.org/adelie/1.0/iso/rc1/adelie-rootfs-aarch64-1.0-rc1-20200206.txz
the kernel Image is linux mte-v3 with reverting the commit
"arm64: mte: Check the DT memory nodes for MTE support"
qemu is static linked from the branch tgt-arm-mte.
the userspace workload that triggers the bug is using the
adelie linux package manager with a malloc with tagging.
(the malloc implementation is a modified version of
https://github.com/richfelker/mallocng-draft
the code is on the disk image, it has known issues, but
it should not crash qemu)
i will remove the file after a few days. hope this helps.
