RISC V is the new architecture in Embedded world, where development is in fast mode. For any new architecture, interaction with kernel & hardware is basic requirement & it is defined once for Initial version of board & follows the same for the same family of boards.The presentation on Base porting of linux kernel on RISC V architecture discuss on, minimal kernel support, Initial address & Macros used in Linux kernel to interact with hardware includes, ZTEXT_ADDRESS, ZRAM_ADDRESS, ZBASE_ADDRESS & minimal controllers initialization from hardware to bringup RISC V board.Usage of this presentation, RISC V boards porting with linux kernel provides basic idea and huge advantage in debugging the early issues of board bringup.Purpose of this presentation is, excepting huge family of RISC V boards from different vendors in near future and this presentation will provide basic setup required to run Linux kernel on RISC V board.
