Please try the alexghiti_test branch at:
https://github.com/avpatel/linux.git

Compile the kernel with defconfig and launch QEMU as follows:
qemu-system-riscv64 -M virt -m 1G -nographic -bios
opensbi/build/platform/generic/firmware/fw_jump.bin -kernel
./build-riscv64/arch/riscv/boot/Image -append "root=/dev/ram rw
console=ttyS0 earlycon" -initrd ./rootfs_riscv64.img

In the above command, rootfs_riscv64.img is a busybox based rootfs.

Anup
