This is the majority of the loongarch architecture code, including the final system call interface and all core functionality. It still misses three sets of peripheral but vital patches to add support for other subsystems, which have yet to pass review: - The drivers/firmware/efi stub for booting from a standard UEFI firmware implementation. Both the original custom boot interface and a draft implementation of the EFI stub did not make it, so it is currently impossible to boot the kernel, until the loongarch specific portions get accepted into the UEFI subsystem - The drivers/irqchip/irq-loongson-*.c drivers are shared with the the MIPS port, but currently lack support for ACPI based booting, which will get merged through the irqchip subsystem. - Similarly, the drivers/pci/controller/pci-loongson.c needs to be modified for ACPI support, which will be merged through the PCI subsystem. While the port cannot actually be used before all the above are merged, having it in 5.19 helps to establish the user space ABI for the libc ports to build on, and to help any treewide changes in the mainline kernel get applied here as well. A gcc-12 based tool chains for build testing is now included in https://mirrors.edge.kernel.org/pub/tools/crosstool/. Original description from Huacai Chen at https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20220603072053.35005-1-chenhuacai@loongson.cn/: "LoongArch is a new RISC ISA, which is a bit like MIPS or RISC-V. LoongArch includes a reduced 32-bit version (LA32R), a standard 32-bit version (LA32S) and a 64-bit version (LA64). LoongArch use ACPI as its boot protocol LoongArch-specific interrupt controllers (similar to APIC) are already added in the next revision of ACPI Specification (current revision is 6.4).

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
