Public bug reported: When running in a chroot with riscv32 (on x86_64; qemu git master as of today):
The following short program forks; the child immediately returns with exit(42). The parent checks for the return value - and obtains 40! gcc-10.2 =============================================== #include <stdlib.h> #include <unistd.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <sys/wait.h> main(c, v) int c; char **v; { pid_t pid, p; int s, i, n; s = 0; pid = fork(); if (pid == 0) exit(42); /* wait for the process */ p = wait(&s); if (p != pid) exit (255); if (WIFEXITED(s)) { int r=WEXITSTATUS(s); if (r!=42) { printf("child wants to return %i (0x%X), parent received %i (0x%X), difference %i\n",42,42,r,r,r-42); } } } =============================================== (riscv-ilp32 chroot) farino /tmp # ./wait-test-short child wants to return 42 (0x2A), parent received 40 (0x28), difference -2 =============================================== (riscv-ilp32 chroot) farino /tmp # gcc --version gcc (Gentoo 10.2.0-r1 p2) 10.2.0 Copyright (C) 2020 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
