This patch lays out the top-level organisation of the RISC-V 32-bit port.
It provides all the Implies files as well as various other fragments of
the build infrastructure.

This patch moves the vDSO setup from libc to loader code, just after
the vDSO link_map setup. For static case the initialization
is moved to _dl_non_dynamic_init instead.
Instead of using the mangled pointer, the vDSO data is set as
attribute_relro (on _rtld_global_ro for shared or _dl_vdso_* for
static). It is read-only even with partial relro.
It fixes BZ#24967 now that the vDSO pointer is setup earlier than
malloc interposition is called.
Also, vDSO calls should not be a problem for static dlopen as
indicated by BZ#20802. The vDSO pointer would be zero-initialized
and the syscall will be issued instead.
Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu, i686-linux-gnu, aarch64-linux-gnu,
arm-linux-gnueabihf, powerpc64le-linux-gnu, powerpc64-linux-gnu,
powerpc-linux-gnu, s390x-linux-gnu, sparc64-linux-gnu, and
sparcv9-linux-gnu. I also run some tests on mips.

_dl_var_init is used to patch the read-only data section after
relocation. Several architectures use this to update
GLRO(page_size) with the correct value for the static dlopen case,
where _rtld_global_ro has not been initialized by the dynamic
loader.
RISC-V does not need this. The RISC-V Instruction Set Manual,
Volume II: Privileged Architecture, Document Version
20190608-Priv-MSU-Ratified says this:
After much deliberation, we have settled on a conventional
page size of 4 KiB for both RV32 and RV64. We expect this
decision to ease the porting of low-level runtime software
and device drivers. The TLB reach problem is ameliorated by
transparent superpage support in modern operating systems
[2]. Additionally, multi-level TLB hierarchies are quite
inexpensive relative to the multi-level cache hierarchies
whose address space they map.

This means that the initialization of
_rtld_global_ro._dl_page_size in elf/rtld.c with EXEC_PAGESIZE
is sufficient for RISC-V.
This patch lays out the top-level orginazition of the RISC-V port. It
contains all the Implies files as well as various other fragments of
build infastructure for the RISC-V port. This contains the only change
to a shared file: config.h.in.
RISC-V is a family of base ISAs with optional extensions. The base ISAs
are RV32I and RV64I, which are 32-bit and 64-bit integer-only ISAs, but
this port currently only supports RV64I based systems. Support for
RISC-V lives in in sysdeps/riscv. In addition to these ISAs, our glibc
port supports most of the currently-defined extensions: the A extension
for atomics, the M extension for multiplication, the C extension for
compressed instructions, and the F/D extensions for single/double
precision IEEE floating-point. Most of these extensions are handled by
GCC, but glibc defines various floating-point wrappers and emulation
routines as well as some atomic wrappers.
We support running glibc-based programs on Linux, the support for which
lives in sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/riscv.
