RISC-V is a new ISA designed to support computer research and education, and
is now become a standard open architecture for industry implementations.
This is a minimal set of changes required to run 'make kernel-toolchain'
using external (GNU) toolchain.

only adds support for kernel-toolchain, however it is expected further
changes to add kernel and userland support will be committed as they are
reviewed.
As our copy of binutils is too old the devel/aarch64-binutils port needs
to be installed to pull in a linker.
To build either TARGET needs to be set to arm64, or TARGET_ARCH set to
aarch64. The latter is set so uname -p will return aarch64 as existing
third party software expects this.

This targets the existing ARMv6 and ARMv7 SoCs that contain a VFP unit.
This is an optional coprocessors may not be present in all devices, however
it appears to be in all current SoCs we support.
armv6hf targets the VFP variant of the ARM EABI and our copy of gcc is too
old to support this. Because of this there are a number of WITH/WITHOUT
options that are unsupported and must be left as the default value. The
options and their required value are:
* WITH_ARM_EABI
* WITHOUT_GCC
* WITHOUT_GNUCXX
In addition, without an external toolchain, the following need to be left
as their default:
* WITH_CLANG
* WITH_CLANG_IS_CC
As there is a different method of passing float and double values to
functions the ABI is incompatible with existing armv6 binaries. To use
this a full rebuild of world is required. Because no floating point values
are passed into the kernel an armv6 kernel with VFP enabled will work with
an armv6hf userland and vice versa.
r238211:
Support TARGET_ARCH=armv6 and TARGET_ARCH=armv6eb
This adds a new TARGET_ARCH for building on ARM
processors that support the ARMv6K multiprocessor
extensions. In particular, these processors have
better support for TLS and mutex operations.
This mostly touches a lot of Makefiles to extend
existing patterns for inferring CPUARCH from ARCH.
It also configures:
* GCC to default to arm1176jz-s
* GCC to predefine __FreeBSD_ARCH_armv6__
* gas to default to ARM_ARCH_V6K
* uname -p to return 'armv6'
* make so that MACHINE_ARCH defaults to 'armv6'
It also changes a number of headers to use
the compiler __ARM_ARCH_XXX__ macros to configure
processor-specific support routines.

This makes our naming scheme more closely match other systems and the
expectations of much third-party software. MIPS builds which are little-endian
should require and exhibit no changes. Big-endian TARGET_ARCHes must be
changed:
From: To:
mipseb mips
mipsn32eb mipsn32
mips64eb mips64
An entry has been added to UPDATING and some foot-shooting protection (complete
with warnings which should become errors in the near future) to the top-level
base system Makefile.
Implement MACHINE_ARCH=mips64e[lb] to build N64 images. This replaces
MACHINE_ARCH=mipse[lb] TARGET_ABI=n64.
MACHINE_ARCH=mipsn32e[lb] has been added, but currently requires
WITHOUT_CDDL due to atomic issues in libzfs. I've not investigated
this much, but implemented this to preserve as much of the TARGET_ABI
functionality that I could. Since its presence doesn't affect the
working cases, I've kept it in for now.
Added mips64e[lb] to make universe, so more kernels build.
And I think this (finally) closes the curtain on the tbemd tree.
TARGET_BIG_ENDIAN is now completely dead, except where it was
originally supposed to be used (internally in the toolchain building).
TARGET_ARCH has changed in three cases:
(1) Little endian mips has changed to mipsel.
(2) Big endian mips has changed to mipseb.
(3) Big endian arm has changed to armeb.
Some additional changes are needed to make 'make universe' work on arm
and mips after this change, so those are commented out for now.
UPDATING information will be forthcoming. Any remaining rough edges
will be hammered out in -current.
