I need more details please, as I have a UEFI bootflow and it works great
(KASLR is based on a relocatable kernel and works fine in UEFI too).
It also crashes without UEFI. Disabling CONFIG_RELOCATABLE fixes that.
This was tested on the HiFive Unmatched board.
The kernel image I tested is available from
<https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Kernel:/HEAD/RISCV/>. The
same kernel with CONFIG_RELOCATABLE disabled is available from
<https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/Andreas_Schwab:/riscv:/kernel/standard/>.
I have tested the following patch successfully, can you give it a try
while I make sure this is the only place I forgot to add the -fno-pie flag?
