[Bug 1917591] [NEW] qemu-i386 under aarch64: Segfaulting on Steamcmd

[Jaap Buurman]

Public bug reported:

I am trying to set up a Valheim server on my Raspberry Pi 4 (8GB). I
have installed the aarch64 image of Arm Arch Linux.

I installed qemu-user-static (version 5.2.0 at this time of writing) from the 
AUR: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/qemu-user-static/
I have correctly set up binfmt support: 
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/binfmt-qemu-static-all-arch/

This allows me to successfully run i386 and amd64 docker images:

[alarm@server ~]$ sudo docker run --rm i386/debian uname -a
WARNING: The requested image's platform (linux/386) does not match the detected 
host platform (linux/arm64/v8) and no specific platform was requested
Linux 9fd8d345b0aa 5.11.1-1-ARCH #1 SMP Tue Feb 23 20:00:47 MST 2021 i686 
GNU/Linux

and

[alarm@server ~]$ sudo docker run --rm amd64/debian uname -a
WARNING: The requested image's platform (linux/amd64) does not match the 
detected host platform (linux/arm64/v8) and no specific platform was requested
Linux 4f50fd228ab6 5.11.1-1-ARCH #1 SMP Tue Feb 23 20:00:47 MST 2021 x86_64 
GNU/Linux

However, when I try to run the docker image that is going to host the
server, the download of Valheim never succeeds because the used steamcmd
application segfaults:

The following command successfully runs the server: sudo docker run -d
--name valheim-server -p 2456-2458:2456-2458/udp -e SERVER_NAME="My
Server" -e WORLD_NAME="Neotopia" -e SERVER_PASS="secret" lloesche
/valheim-server

However, when we look into the container's logs via this command: sudo
docker logs valheim-server

We see the following entry in the log file: ./steamcmd.sh: line 38:
86 Segmentation fault      (core dumped) $DEBUGGER "$STEAMEXE" "$@"

This means that the download never completes, and therefor the Valheim
server is never actually started. Any help would be much appreciated. If
there is anything unclear or if you need more details, please let me
know!
