From version 2.38, binutils default to ISA spec version 20191213. This means that the csr read/write (csrr*/csrw*) instructions and fence.i instruction has separated from the `I` extension, become two standalone extensions: Zicsr and Zifencei. As the kernel uses those instruction, this causes the following build failure: CC arch/riscv/kernel/vdso/vgettimeofday.o <<BUILDDIR>>/arch/riscv/include/asm/vdso/gettimeofday.h: Assembler messages: <<BUILDDIR>>/arch/riscv/include/asm/vdso/gettimeofday.h:71: Error: unrecognized opcode `csrr a5,0xc01' <<BUILDDIR>>/arch/riscv/include/asm/vdso/gettimeofday.h:71: Error: unrecognized opcode `csrr a5,0xc01' <<BUILDDIR>>/arch/riscv/include/asm/vdso/gettimeofday.h:71: Error: unrecognized opcode `csrr a5,0xc01' <<BUILDDIR>>/arch/riscv/include/asm/vdso/gettimeofday.h:71: Error: unrecognized opcode `csrr a5,0xc01' The fix is to specify those extensions explicitely in -march. However as older binutils version do not support this, we first need to detect that.

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.
