Merge patch series "riscv: Introduce KASLR"
Alexandre Ghiti <alexghiti@rivosinc.com> says:

The following KASLR implementation allows to randomize the kernel mapping:

- virtually: we expect the bootloader to provide a seed in the device-tree
- physically: only implemented in the EFI stub, it relies on the firmware to
  provide a seed using EFI_RNG_PROTOCOL. arm64 has a similar implementation
  hence the patch 3 factorizes KASLR related functions for riscv to take
  advantage.

The new virtual kernel location is limited by the early page table that only
has one PUD and with the PMD alignment constraint, the kernel can only take
< 512 positions.

* b4-shazam-merge:
  riscv: libstub: Implement KASLR by using generic functions
  libstub: Fix compilation warning for rv32
  arm64: libstub: Move KASLR handling functions to kaslr.c
  riscv: Dump out kernel offset information on panic
  riscv: Introduce virtual kernel mapping KASLR

README

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.
