[Qemu-devel] [Bug 1042388] Re: qemu: Unsupported syscall: 257 (timer_create)

[Peter Maydell]

I finally got round to looking into why the test case from comment #27
worked on x86-64 guests and i386-guest-on-i386-host but not on arm-
on-x86-64. This turns out to be a wrong structure definition which meant
we weren't handling the 32-bit-guest-on-64-bit-host combinations
correctly. I've sent a patch:

http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/665274/

I think this should tie up the last loose end in this bug report so once
it gets into master we can close it.
