The following description is copied from the equivalent patch for the
Linux Kernel proposed by Aurelien Jarno:

 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:

arch/riscv/cpu/mtrap.S: Assembler messages:
arch/riscv/cpu/mtrap.S:65: Error: unrecognized opcode `csrr a0,scause'
arch/riscv/cpu/mtrap.S:66: Error: unrecognized opcode `csrr a1,sepc'
arch/riscv/cpu/mtrap.S:67: Error: unrecognized opcode `csrr a2,stval'
arch/riscv/cpu/mtrap.S:70: Error: unrecognized opcode `csrw sepc,a0'

I tried to build qemu-riscv64_smode_defconfig. With your patch I get

arch/riscv/cpu/cpu.c: Assembler messages:
arch/riscv/cpu/cpu.c:94: Error: unrecognized opcode `csrs sstatus,a5'
arch/riscv/cpu/cpu.c:95: Error: unrecognized opcode `csrw 0x003,0'

The build flag used is -march=rv64imac.

My toolchain is:
binutils 2.37.90.20220126-0ubuntu1
riscv64-linux-gnu-gcc (Ubuntu 10.3.0-8ubuntu1) 10.3.0

This GCC does not support _zicsr_zifencei:
cc1: error: ‘-march=rv64imac_zicsr_zifencei’: unsupported ISA subset ‘z

Could it be that the GCC is too old for the new binutils?
When was the z subset added to GCC?

What about the device trees:

arch/riscv/dts/fu540-c000.dtsi:32:
riscv,isa = "rv64imac";

arch/riscv/dts/fu740-c000.dtsi:34:
riscv,isa = "rv64imac";

arch/riscv/dts/microchip-mpfs.dtsi:28:
riscv,isa = "rv64imac";

Best regards

Heinrich
