Hum?

[-] Hmm, looks like the target binary terminated before we could complete a handshake with the injected code.
If the target was compiled with afl-clang-lto and AFL_LLVM_MAP_ADDR then recompiling without this parameter.
Otherwise there is a horrible bug in the fuzzer.
Poke <afl-users@googlegroups.com> for troubleshooting tips.

made target versions with -pie and -no_pie:

nm test-instr_nopie | grep "T main"

Pretty sure that is a one!

Then ran them with
AFL_ENTRYPOINT=0x400740 ../afl-fuzz -Q -i in -o out -- ./test-instr_pie
and
AFL_ENTRYPOINT=0x55000008e0 ../afl-fuzz -Q -i in -o out -- ./test-instr_pie
which worked.
So it seems best to replace nm test-instr_pie | grep "T main" with an run of afl-qemu-trace in the test script.
I checked the same procedure on Linux 64 bit, worked there too.

[hexcoder-]

That works with 32 bit on i386 and arm too.

[vanhauser-thc]

I would say just make the change, you tested it.

[hexcoder-]

Yes, will also check for qemu persistent and then commit.

[hexcoder-]

ok, test case for qemu AFL_ENTRYPOINT is ok now with commit AFLplusplus/AFLplusplus@1a713ff.
