config attach

Attaching the kernel config file

# Linux/powerpc 4.11.0-rc4 Kernel Configuration

This is not the correct config file. Can you send the .config ?

CONFIG_HAVE_STACKPROTECTOR=y
CONFIG_CC_HAS_STACKPROTECTOR_NONE=y
CONFIG_STACKPROTECTOR=y
CONFIG_STACKPROTECTOR_STRONG=y

ah yes, I have attached the correct config now.

Ok,

Could you please try and add a call to function boot_init_stack_canary() 
in function start_secondary() in arch/powerpc/kernel/smp.c just before 
the call to cpu_startup_entry() ?

Thanks
Christophe
