I found a weird crash that seems to involve running apps compiled for amd64 on an aarch64 system using .

It seems to be related to the Go GC, GOGC=off works. Go 1.20 also works.

The crash output from Go runtime is in this issue, but I've been able to reproduce this when building a very simple hello world app for amd64:

gitlab.com/postmarketOS/pmboot

Both Go's runtime/GC and qemu are complicated things I suck at debugging 😞

Help me fediverse, you're my only hope.

GitLabrunning mkinitfs with pmb on an aarch64 host for x86_64 fails (#2382) · Issues · postmarketOS / pmbootstrap · GitLabI found some weird failure when running mkinitfs under qemu+binfmt for an x86_64 target on an aarch64 host, it looks like something deep within Go is exploding: mkinitfs...

I would like to report this upstream, but I'm not sure which upstream... This problem seems to be specific to using qemu, but it only started crashing in Go 1.21. 🤷
