rv, unlike rtla and perf, drops LDFLAGS supplied by the user and honors
only EXTRA_LDFLAGS. This is inconsistent with both perf and rtla and
can lead to all kinds of unexpected behavior.
For example, on Fedora and RHEL, it causes rv to be build without
PIE, unlike the aforementioned perf and rtla:
$ file /usr/bin/{rv,rtla,perf}
/usr/bin/rv: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, ...
/usr/bin/rtla: ELF 64-bit LSB pie executable, ...
/usr/bin/perf: ELF 64-bit LSB pie executable, ...
Keep both LDFLAGS and EXTRA_LDFLAGS for the build.

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 reStructuredText 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.
