cmpxchg for variables of size 1-byte and 2-bytes is not yet available for riscv, even though its present in other architectures such as arm64 and x86. This could lead to not being able to implement some locking mechanisms or requiring some rework to make it work properly. Implement 1-byte and 2-bytes cmpxchg in order to achieve parity with other architectures.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
