This patch series ended up much larger than expected, please bear with me! The goal here is to support vendor extensions, starting at probing the device tree and ending with reporting to userspace.
The main design objective was to allow vendors to operate independently of each other. This has been achieved by delegating vendor extensions to a their own files and then accumulating the extensions in arch/riscv/kernel/vendor_extensions.c. Each vendor will have their own list of extensions they support. There is a new hwprobe key RISCV_HWPROBE_KEY_VENDOR_EXT_THEAD_0 that is used to request which thead vendor extensions are supported on the current platform. This allows future vendors to allocate hwprobe keys for their vendor. On to the xtheadvector specific code. xtheadvector is a custom extension that is based upon riscv vector version 0.7.1 [1]. All of the vector routines have been modified to support this alternative vector version based upon whether xtheadvector was determined to be supported at boot. I have tested this with an Allwinner Nezha board. I ran into issues booting the board on 6.9-rc1 so I applied these patches to 6.8. There are a couple of minor merge conflicts that do arrise when doing that, so please let me know if you have been able to boot this board with a 6.9 kernel. I used SkiffOS [2] to manage building the image, but upgraded the U-Boot version to Samuel Holland's more up-to-date version [3] and changed out the device tree used by U-Boot with the device trees that are present in upstream linux and this series. Thank you Samuel for all of the work you did to make this task possible. To test the integration, I used the riscv vector kselftests. I modified the test cases to be able to more easily extend them, and then added a xtheadvector target that works by calling hwprobe and swapping out the vector asm if needed.
