R_RISCV_ALIGN semantics .

[Umesh Kalappa]

Hi All,

We have loadable kernel module for our custom OS ,where we do partial
linking and  by default LLVM enable relaxation for RISCV  and for some
instance we need to enable relaxation and need to get rid of R_RISCV_ALIGN
relocs and for other relocs we just patch the address and don't do any code
size linker optimisations .

So given this scenario ,we are trying to address the R_RISCV_ALIGN reloc at
load time and currently we are patching the nop with pad value like default
zero or any value .

patching pad values is the right R_RISCV_ALIGN  semantics  in our scenario ?

Thank you
