there's something similar in the cirrus emulation as well.
Here it triggers _always_ (including old versions of kvm)
when running windows NT and hitting "test" button in its
display resolution dialog.  Here's what gdb is to say:

Program received signal SIGFPE, Arithmetic exception.
[Switching to Thread 0xf76cab70 (LWP 580)]
0x080c5e45 in cirrus_do_copy (s=0x86134dc, dst=960000, src=0, w=2, h=9)
    at hw/cirrus_vga.c:687
687        sx = (src % ABS(s->cirrus_blt_srcpitch)) / depth;
(gdb) p depth
$1 = 2
(gdb) p s->cirrus_blt_srcpitch
$2 = 0


This qemu-kvm-0.12.3 - actually a debian package of it,
but there's no patches relevant to video applied.

Anything can be done with it?

Well, it's trivial to check for the condition, but how to handle it?


That code is wrong. It shouldn't be using the bitblt source pitch, but the actual display pitch. If the two are different, then the blt doesn't actually affect a rectangular region, but instead a parallelogram.

Further:


    if (notify)
        qemu_console_copy(s->vga.ds,
              sx, sy, dx, dy,
              s->cirrus_blt_width / depth,
              s->cirrus_blt_height);

    /* we don't have to notify the display that this portion has
       changed since qemu_console_copy implies this */

    cirrus_invalidate_region(s, s->cirrus_blt_dstaddr,
                s->cirrus_blt_dstpitch, s->cirrus_blt_width,
                s->cirrus_blt_height);


Shouldn't we avoid the invalidate if notify != 0, as the comment says?

31c05501c says this breaks bitblt, but I can't see why this is true. The copy should update the display. This is probably due to a miscalculation of the affected region, and now we have two invalidates instead of one, reducing performance.
