+kunit_tool How-To
+=================
+
+What is kunit_tool?
+===================
+
+kunit_tool is a script (``tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py``) that aids in building
+the Linux kernel as UML (`User Mode Linux
+<http://user-mode-linux.sourceforge.net/>`_), running KUnit tests, parsing
+the test results and displaying them in a user friendly manner.
+
+What is a kunitconfig?
+======================
+
+It's just a defconfig that kunit_tool looks for in the base directory.
+kunit_tool uses it to generate a .config as you might expect. In addition, it
+verifies that the generated .config contains the CONFIG options in the
+kunitconfig; the reason it does this is so that it is easy to be sure that a
+CONFIG that enables a test actually ends up in the .config.
+
+How do I use kunit_tool?
+========================
+
+If a kunitconfig is present at the root directory, all you have to do is:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ ./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py run
+
+However, you most likely want to use it with the following options:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ ./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py run --timeout=30 --jobs=`nproc --all`
+
+- ``--timeout`` sets a maximum amount of time to allow tests to run.
+- ``--jobs`` sets the number of threads to use to build the kernel.
+
+If you just want to use the defconfig that ships with the kernel, you can
+append the ``--defconfig`` flag as well:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ ./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py run --timeout=30 --jobs=`nproc --all` --defconfig
+
+.. note::
+ This command is particularly helpful for getting started because it
+ just works. No kunitconfig needs to be present.
+
+For a list of all the flags supported by kunit_tool, you can run:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ ./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py run --help

+arch/riscv maintenance guidelines for developers
+================================================
+
+Overview
+--------
+The RISC-V instruction set architecture is developed in the open:
+in-progress drafts are available for all to review and to experiment
+with implementations. New module or extension drafts can change
+during the development process - sometimes in ways that are
+incompatible with previous drafts. This flexibility can present a
+challenge for RISC-V Linux maintenance. Linux maintainers disapprove
+of churn, and the Linux development process prefers well-reviewed and
+tested code over experimental code. We wish to extend these same
+principles to the RISC-V-related code that will be accepted for
+inclusion in the kernel.
+
+Submit Checklist Addendum
+-------------------------
+We'll only accept patches for new modules or extensions if the
+specifications for those modules or extensions are listed as being
+"Frozen" or "Ratified" by the RISC-V Foundation. (Developers may, of
+course, maintain their own Linux kernel trees that contain code for
+any draft extensions that they wish.)
+
+Additionally, the RISC-V specification allows implementors to create
+their own custom extensions. These custom extensions aren't required
+to go through any review or ratification process by the RISC-V
+Foundation. To avoid the maintenance complexity and potential
+performance impact of adding kernel code for implementor-specific
+RISC-V extensions, we'll only to accept patches for extensions that
+have been officially frozen or ratified by the RISC-V Foundation.
+(Implementors, may, of course, maintain their own Linux kernel trees
+containing code for any custom extensions that they wish.)
