[PATCH 00/11] RISC-V: Resolve the issue of loadable module on 64-bit

>
> These patches resolve the some issues of loadable module.
>   - symbol out of ranges
>   - unknown relocation types
>
> The reference of external variable and function symbols
> cannot exceed 32-bit offset ranges in kernel module.
> The module only can work on the 32-bit OS or the 64-bit
> OS with sv32 virtual addressing.
>
> These patches will generate the .got, .got.plt and
> .plt sections during loading module, let it can refer
> to the symbol which locate more than 32-bit offset.
> These sections depend on the relocation types:
>  - R_RISCV_GOT_HI20
>  - R_RISCV_CALL_PLT
>
> These patches also support more relocation types
>  - R_RISCV_CALL
>  - R_RISCV_HI20
>  - R_RISCV_LO12_I
>  - R_RISCV_LO12_S
>  - R_RISCV_RVC_BRANCH
>  - R_RISCV_RVC_JUMP
>  - R_RISCV_ALIGN
>  - R_RISCV_ADD32
>  - R_RISCV_SUB32
>
> Zong Li (11):
>   RISC-V: Add sections of PLT and GOT for kernel module
>   RISC-V: Add section of GOT.PLT for kernel module
>   RISC-V: Support GOT_HI20/CALL_PLT relocation type in kernel module
>   RISC-V: Support CALL relocation type in kernel module
>   RISC-V: Support HI20/LO12_I/LO12_S relocation type in kernel module
>   RISC-V: Support RVC_BRANCH/JUMP relocation type in kernel modulewq
>   RISC-V: Support ALIGN relocation type in kernel module
>   RISC-V: Support ADD32 relocation type in kernel module
>   RISC-V: Support SUB32 relocation type in kernel module
>   RISC-V: Enable module support in defconfig
>   RISC-V: Add definition of relocation types
