+RISC-V Proxy Kernel
+=====================
+
+About
+---------
+
+The RISC-V proxy kernel is a thin layer that services system calls generated
+by code built and linked with the RISC-V newlib port.
+
+Build Steps
+---------------
+
+We assume that the RISCV environment variable is set to the RISC-V tools
+install path, and that the riscv-gcc package is installed.
+
+ $ mkdir build
+ $ cd build
+ $ CC=riscv-gcc ../configure --prefix=$RISCV/target --host=riscv
+ $ make
+ $ make install
