This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled riscv/atomic: Fix sign extension for RV64I to the 5.7-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: riscv-atomic-fix-sign-extension-for-rv64i.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.7 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 8f83130bb8f32d3a575cf7c7bd805f1329d86d02 Author: Nathan Huckleberry <nhuck@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu Jun 11 18:32:35 2020 +0000 riscv/atomic: Fix sign extension for RV64I [ Upstream commit 6c58f25e6938c073198af8b1e1832f83f8f0df33 ] The argument passed to cmpxchg is not guaranteed to be sign extended, but lr.w sign extends on RV64I. This makes cmpxchg fail on clang built kernels when __old is negative. To fix this, we just cast __old to long which sign extends on RV64I. With this fix, clang built RISC-V kernels now boot.
