I provided a link to my root file system above. The link points to two
root file systems, for initrd (cpio archive) and for ext2.
I also mentioned above that I used qemu v6.2. And below I said

I attached the buildroot configuration below. The buildroot version,
if I remember correctly, was 2021.02.

Kernel configuration is basically defconfig. However, I do see one
detail that is possibly special in my configuration.

    # The latest kernel assumes SBI version 0.3, but that doesn't match qemu
    # at least up to version 6.2 and results in hangup/crashes during reboot
    # with sifive_u emulations.
    enable_config "${defconfig}" CONFIG_RISCV_SBI_V01

Hope that helps,

Guenter
