Fail to run benchmark programs on Arm64/Linux

[jserv]

When I ran some standard benchmark programs on Ubuntu Linux (Arm64), several of them crashed with segmentation faults. Execution mode is interpreter.

Tested on

• Ampere eMAG 8180 + Ubuntu Linux 24.04
• Apple Silicon M1 + Ubuntu Linux 22.04

Known failure programs: (prebuilt ELF in directory build/riscv32/)

• qsort
• primes
• norx
• stream
• aes
• miniz

Hi @jserv, I found these segmentation faults also happen on x86_64 platform. There could be some regression.

The change feca1de can cause it. @jserv, have you tried building with -DMEM_SIZE=0xFFFFFFFFULL for a larger memory size? I wonder if I am checking the same issue with you. After increasing the MEM_SIZE, these tests can be run on my ARM64 platform(Jetson AGX Orin Developer Kit).

The reason is the reserved memory chunk via mmap() is too small that makes function malloc() access the out-of-bound address in these tests. If we modify

rv32emu/src/main.c

Line 178 in 576f30a

#define MEM_SIZE 0x80000ULL

to 0x8000000UL or larger value could fix this error.

Le's implement a temporary solution to support executing pre-compiled ELF executable files that aren't SDL-based, with more flexible memory constraint requirements. Later, we should move forward to effective memory management.
