Merge patch series "riscv: report more ISA extensions through hwprobe"
Clément Léger <cleger@rivosinc.com> says:

In order to be able to gather more information about the supported ISA
extensions from userspace using the hwprobe syscall, add more ISA
extensions report. This series adds the following ISA extensions parsing
support:

- Zfh[min]
- Zvfh[min]
- Zihintntl
- Zbc
- Zvbb
- Zvbc
- Zvkb
- Zvkg
- Zvkned
- Zvknh[ab]
- Zvksed
- Zvksh
- Zvkn
- Zvknc
- Zvkng
- Zvks
- Zvksc
- Zvksg
- Zvkt
- Zfa
- Zbkb
- Zbkc
- Zbkx
- Zknd
- Zkne
- Zknh
- Zkr
- Zksed
- Zksh
- Zkt

Some of these extensions are actually shorthands for other "sub"
extensions. This series includes a patch from Conor/Evan that adds a way
to specify such "bundled" extensions. When exposing these bundled
extensions to userspace through hwprobe, only the "sub" extensions are
exposed.

In order to test it, one can use qemu and the small hwprobe utility
provided[1]. Run qemu by specifying additional ISA extensions, for
instance:

$ qemu-system-riscv64 -cpu rv64,v=true,zk=true,zvksh=true,zvkned=true
  <whatever options you want>

Then, run hwprobe:

$ ./hwprobe
Base system ISA:
 - IMA_FD
 - C
 - V
Supported extensions:
 - Zba
 - Zbb
 - Zbs
 - Zbc
 - Zbkb
 - Zbkc
 - Zbkx
 - Zknd
 - Zkne
 - Zknh
 - Zkt
 - Zvkned
 - Zvksh
 - Zihintntl
 - Zfa

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.
