Anthony, please apply it to QEMU 1.2. Regards, Stefan PS. Are there perhaps more bugs of this sort? A quick test looking for .class_init without .class_size shows a lot of files.

A problem only arises when a new struct ...Class is casted to but the object not sized appropriately through .class_size. Andreas

Add the missing .class_size definition to the arm_gic_info TypeInfo. This fixes the memory corruption and possible segfault that otherwise results when the class struct is allocated at too small a size and the class init function writes off the end of it.

I suspect this only crashes on 32 bit hosts because the class is only one field larger than its subclass, so on 64 bit systems we are probably only overwriting padding rather than anything important.
