For PC-relative translation blocks, env->eip changes during the
execution of a translation block, Therefore, QEMU must be able to
recover an instruction's PC just from the TranslationBlock struct and
the instruction data with. Because a TB will not span two pages, QEMU
stores all the low bits of EIP in the instruction data and replaces them
in x86_restore_state_to_opc. Bits 12 and higher (which may vary between
executions of a PCREL TB, since these only use the physical address in
the hash key) are kept unmodified from env->eip. The assumption is that
these bits of EIP, unlike bits 0-11, will not change as the translation
block executes.
Unfortunately, this is incorrect when the CS base is not aligned to a page.
Then the linear address of the instructions (i.e. the one with the
CS base addred) indeed will never span two pages, but bits 12+ of EIP
can actually change. For example, if CS base is 0x80262200 and EIP =
0x6FF4, the first instruction in the translation block will be at linear
address 0x802691F4. Even a very small TB will cross to EIP = 0x7xxx,
while the linear addresses will remain comfortably within a single page.
The fix is simply to use the low bits of the linear address for data[0],
since those don't change. Then x86_restore_state_to_opc uses tb->cs_base
to compute a temporary linear address (referring to some unknown
instruction in the TB, but with the correct values of bits 12 and higher);
the low bits are replaced with data[0], and EIP is obtained by subtracting
again the CS base.
Huge thanks to Mark Cave-Ayland for the image and initial debugging,
and to Gitlab user @kjliew for help with bisecting another occurrence
of (hopefully!) the same bug.
It should be relatively easy to write a testcase that performs MMIO on
an EIP with different bits 12+ than the first instruction of the translation
block; any help is welcome.

=========== QEMU README =========== QEMU is a generic and open source machine & userspace emulator and virtualizer. QEMU is capable of emulating a complete machine in software without any need for hardware virtualization support. By using dynamic translation, it achieves very good performance. QEMU can also integrate with the Xen and KVM hypervisors to provide emulated hardware while allowing the hypervisor to manage the CPU. With hypervisor support, QEMU can achieve near native performance for CPUs. When QEMU emulates CPUs directly it is capable of running operating systems made for one machine (e.g. an ARMv7 board) on a different machine (e.g. an x86_64 PC board). QEMU is also capable of providing userspace API virtualization for Linux and BSD kernel interfaces. This allows binaries compiled against one architecture ABI (e.g. the Linux PPC64 ABI) to be run on a host using a different architecture ABI (e.g. the Linux x86_64 ABI). This does not involve any hardware emulation, simply CPU and syscall emulation. QEMU aims to fit into a variety of use cases. It can be invoked directly by users wishing to have full control over its behaviour and settings. It also aims to facilitate integration into higher level management layers, by providing a stable command line interface and monitor API. It is commonly invoked indirectly via the libvirt library when using open source applications such as oVirt, OpenStack and virt-manager. QEMU as a whole is released under the GNU General Public License, version 2. For full licensing details, consult the LICENSE file. Documentation ============= Documentation can be found hosted online at `<https://www.qemu.org/documentation/>`_. The documentation for the current development version that is available at `<https://www.qemu.org/docs/master/>`_ is generated from the ``docs/`` folder in the source tree, and is built by `Sphinx <https://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/master/>`_. Building ======== QEMU is multi-platform software intended to be buildable on all modern Linux platforms, OS-X, Win32 (via the Mingw64 toolchain) and a variety of other UNIX targets. The simple steps to build QEMU are: .. code-block:: shell mkdir build cd build ../configure make Additional information can also be found online via the QEMU website: * `<https://wiki.qemu.org/Hosts/Linux>`_ * `<https://wiki.qemu.org/Hosts/Mac>`_ * `<https://wiki.qemu.org/Hosts/W32>`_ Submitting patches ================== The QEMU source code is maintained under the GIT version control system. .. code-block:: shell git clone https://gitlab.com/qemu-project/qemu.git When submitting patches, one common approach is to use 'git format-patch' and/or 'git send-email' to format & send the mail to the qemu-devel@nongnu.org mailing list. All patches submitted must contain a 'Signed-off-by' line from the author. Patches should follow the guidelines set out in the `style section <https://www.qemu.org/docs/master/devel/style.html>`_ of the Developers Guide. Additional information on submitting patches can be found online via the QEMU website * `<https://wiki.qemu.org/Contribute/SubmitAPatch>`_ * `<https://wiki.qemu.org/Contribute/TrivialPatches>`_ The QEMU website is also maintained under source control. .. code-block:: shell git clone https://gitlab.com/qemu-project/qemu-web.git * `<https://www.qemu.org/2017/02/04/the-new-qemu-website-is-up/>`_ A 'git-publish' utility was created to make above process less cumbersome, and is highly recommended for making regular contributions, or even just for sending consecutive patch series revisions. It also requires a working 'git send-email' setup, and by default doesn't automate everything, so you may want to go through the above steps manually for once. For installation instructions, please go to * `<https://github.com/stefanha/git-publish>`_ The workflow with 'git-publish' is: .. code-block:: shell $ git checkout master -b my-feature $ # work on new commits, add your 'Signed-off-by' lines to each $ git publish Your patch series will be sent and tagged as my-feature-v1 if you need to refer back to it in the future. Sending v2: .. code-block:: shell $ git checkout my-feature # same topic branch $ # making changes to the commits (using 'git rebase', for example) $ git publish Your patch series will be sent with 'v2' tag in the subject and the git tip will be tagged as my-feature-v2. Bug reporting ============= The QEMU project uses GitLab issues to track bugs. Bugs found when running code built from QEMU git or upstream released sources should be reported via: * `<https://gitlab.com/qemu-project/qemu/-/issues>`_ If using QEMU via an operating system vendor pre-built binary package, it is preferable to report bugs to the vendor's own bug tracker first. If the bug is also known to affect latest upstream code, it can also be reported via GitLab. For additional information on bug reporting consult: * `<https://wiki.qemu.org/Contribute/ReportABug>`_ ChangeLog ========= For version history and release notes, please visit `<https://wiki.qemu.org/ChangeLog/>`_ or look at the git history for more detailed information. Contact ======= The QEMU community can be contacted in a number of ways, with the two main methods being email and IRC * `<mailto:qemu-devel@nongnu.org>`_ * `<https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/qemu-devel>`_ * #qemu on irc.oftc.net Information on additional methods of contacting the community can be found online via the QEMU website: * `<https://wiki.qemu.org/Contribute/StartHere>`_
