[Bug 1922391] [NEW] qemu-system-ppc assertion "!mr->container" failed

[Håvard Eidnes]

Public bug reported:

Hi,

I'm trying to run the NetBSD/macppc 8.2 installer (which is 32-bit ppc) in 
qemu-system-ppc
version 5.2.0, and I'm hitting this assertion failure quite a bit into the 
"unpacking sets" 
part of the installation procedure, unpacking from the install iso image.

Qemu is run on a NetBSD/amd64 9.1 host system.  The stack backtrace from
the core file is

Program terminated with signal SIGABRT, Aborted.
#0  0x000078859a36791a in _lwp_kill () from /usr/lib/libc.so.12

I start qemu with this small script:

---
#!/bin/sh

MEM=3g
qemu-system-ppc \
        -M mac99,via=pmu \
        -m $MEM  \
        -nographic \
        -drive id=hda,format=raw,file=disk.img \
        -L pc-bios \
        -netdev user,id=net0,hostfwd=tcp::2223-:22,ipv6=off \
        -net nic,model=rtl8139,netdev=net0 \
        -boot d \
        -cdrom NetBSD-8.2-macppc.iso
---

and boot the install kernel with "boot cd:ofwboot.xcf".  If someone wants
to replicate this I can provide more detailed instructions to repeat the
procedure I used to start the install.

Any hints about what more to look for?

Regards,

- Håvard
