+Subject: [PATCH] Add RISC-V support
+
+configure rejects riscv hosts with "it has not been ported", and
+os_gettimeoftsc() falls back to the x86 rdtsc instruction for any
+unknown architecture.
+
+Accept riscv* hosts and read the time CSR with rdtime, which Linux lets
+user mode access (unlike the cycle CSR). On rv32 read the high half
+around the low half and retry on carry.
+
+Upstream-Status: Pending
+AI-Generated: Uses Claude Code
