[RFC PATCH 01/13] riscv: Add support for kernel mode vector

Eric Biggers ebiggers at kernel.org
Mon Jan 1 22:47:27 PST 2024


From: Greentime Hu <greentime.hu at sifive.com>

Add kernel_vector_begin() and kernel_vector_end() function declarations
and corresponding definitions in kernel_mode_vector.c

These are needed to wrap uses of vector in kernel mode.
