This add a test to check if the kernel zero-initializes all V registers after the first-use trap handler returns. If V registers are not zero-initialized, then the test should fail one out of several runs: ``` root@sifive-fpga:~# ./v_initval_nolibc # vl = 256 not ok 1 detect stale values on v-regesters 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 4c 41 4e 47 3d 43 0 50 41 54 48 3d 2f 75 73 72 2f 6c 6f 63 61 6c 2f 73 62 69 6e 3a 2f 75 73 72 2f 6c 6f 63 61 6c 2f 62 69 6e 3a 2f 75 73 72 ff ff 81 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 ``` Otherwise, the test passes without errors each run.

README
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.
