Hi Lukas,

RISC-V has two code models, medium low (medlow) and medium any (medany). Medlow limits addressable memory to a single 2 GiB range between the absolute addresses -2 GiB and +2 GiB. Medany limits addressable memory to any single 2 GiB address range. By default, medlow is selected on 32-bit systems and medany on 64-bit systems. This matches the configuration in Linux.
The -mcmodel compiler flag is selected according to the Kconfig configuration.

I had a further look at this, and I suspect we should stick to medlow for U-Boot, even for 64-bit. As U-Boot will be only running within the low 4GB memory space even for 64-bit. Adding medany seems unnecessary.
