Hi Nelson,
Thanks for the response. Yes, it is indeed "status" in the initial load. Well, I am not sure if the "status" is going to get changed in the future, but OpenJDK does not depend on a certain version of Binutils, that OpenJDK developers (or users) could specify a Binutils source code path (maybe any version) in configurations and use Makefiles in OpenJDK to generate `libopcodes.a` and friends to archive a certain dynamic lib used for disassembling. So seems that even if this issue is fixed, we need to keep the RISC-V-specific workaround in JDK as well. Do you think there are other better solutions to this issue?
Thanks,
Xiaolin

It used to be "status", but I accidentally changed it to "1" when
porting mapping symbols, so I just changed it back to what it was
before. Seems like it should be "-1", but not sure why it was
"status" for a long time ago.
Thanks
Nelson

In the RISC-V backend of Binutils, if `read_memory_func` returns a `status`, a non-zero value, after calling `memory_error_func` we will use the `status` variable as the final return value [2], which is different from other platforms that use a `-1` as return value [3] [4] [5] [6]. Although we could have some workaround for this on our side, the question is, should the behavior keep the same as on other platforms?
