Pull RISC-V fixes from Palmer Dabbelt:
"This is obviously not ideal, particularly for something this late in
the cycle.
Unfortunately we found some uABI issues in the vector support while
reviewing the GDB port, which has triggered a revert -- probably a
good sign we should have reviewed GDB before merging this, I guess I
just dropped the ball because I was so worried about the context
extension and libc suff I forgot. Hence the late revert.
There's some risk here as we're still exposing the vector context for
signal handlers, but changing that would have meant reverting all of
the vector support. The issues we've found so far have been fixed
already and they weren't absolute showstoppers, so we're essentially
just playing it safe by holding ptrace support for another release (or
until we get through a proper userspace code review).
Summary:
- The vector ucontext extension has been extended with vlenb
- The vector registers ELF core dump note type has been changed to
avoid aliasing with the CSR type used in embedded systems
- Support for accessing vector registers via ptrace() has been
reverted
- Another build fix for the ISA spec changes around Zifencei/Zicsr
that manifests on some systems built with binutils-2.37 and
gcc-11.2"
