Yes, the patch was against current qemu cvs sources.

Part of the problem is my GOTO_LABEL_PARAM macro for sparc, in dyngen-exec.h:

    #define GOTO_LABEL_PARAM(n) asm volatile ("ba " ASM_NAME(__op_gen_label) #n 
";nop")


We have 22 bits in the branch instruction to encode a signed 32-bit word
offset, relative to the current PC. The target address is always a
multiple of 4, so the offset encoded in the branch instruction is an
offset measured in 32-bit words.


The sparc branch instructions cannot jump forward / backward more than
8 mbytes (2^21 * 4 = 8mbyte).


What appears to be happening on your system is that the opcode
templates from the code section for "target-i386/op.c" (these contain
the "ba" branch instruction from the GOTO_LABEL_PARAM macro) jump to an
integer variable that is allocated somewhere in the data or bss section
(the "int __op_gen_label1" variable defined in dyngen.h), and the code
& data section on your system are more than 8 mbytes apart.


Apparently I had luck upto now, because on my solaris 10 sparc box there
have been no such issues with R_SPARC_WDISP22 relocation errors.

  --> 0x34c21f * 4 = 13830268 = 13.8 mbytes


I guess this can be fixed by moving the branch target "__op_gen_label1"
from the data section to the code section.  A "size" on my sparc qemu
binary reports a total code size of ~ 1 mbyte, so that there should be
no issues with R_SPARC_WDISP22 overflows when both the branch instruction
and the branch target are both in the code (.text) section.

A fix would be:
