Hi everyone,
I noticed some time ago (between Feb 1 and Feb 3) that QEMU plugins
segfault when calling any API symbol with MSYS2 in mingw64 environment,
compiled with gcc.
I reported this to MSYS2 project [1], suspecting a faulty compiler or
runtime update, once I could identify that it's not a regression on QEMU
itself. Indeed, older releases now segfault as well.
Recently, QEMU enabled Windows clang builds as well, which are not
impacted, so QEMU plugins are still available this way. The regression
is *not* related to this change.
It does not impact upcoming QEMU release, as the problem is not located
on QEMU side, but is worth mentioning in case someone would create a bug
report for this.
