Hello Yann,

Thanks for the help!

Indeed, recent Buildroot enable by default BR2_PIC_PIE option.

I guess the problem is using secure PLT and PIC/PIE at the same time. By
disabling BR2_PIC_PIE the issue is gone.

Maybe you can keep in the commit log the link to the initial report:

With this patch applied, the init program still crash during boot:

transfering control to application @ 0x690a40
init[1]: segfault (11) at 378 nip 695e80 lr 0 code 1 in busybox[5e0000+e1000]
init[1]: code: 817e97a4 7d6903a6 4e800420 60000000 817ebedc 7d6903a6 4e800420
60000000
init[1]: code: 817ed9b8 7d6903a6 4e800420 60000000 <817e0378> 7d6903a6 4e800420
60000000
Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init! exitcode=0x0000000b

It's due to the PPC_HAS_SECUREPLT test where the '\' charactere is still present
in the generated source file:

  printf '\#include <stdio.h>\nint main(void)
          ^
There is no need to escape the '#'.

With that fixed the system boot correctly:
