Linux Kernel Configuration
└─>Platform type
└─>RISCV_ALTERNATIVE
In linux kernel since version 4.14.326 (release Date: 2023-09-23)
This Kconfig allows the kernel to automatically patch the
errata required by the execution platform at run time. The
code patching is performed once in the boot stages. It means
that the overhead from this mechanism is just taken once.
