Binutils RVV support can be found on the RISC-V integration branch in the
FSF Binutils tree: users/riscv/binutils-integration-branch.

There is no usable RVV GCC port.  One was started and then mostly
abandoned.  It still gets the occasional patch, but it should not be
trusted.  RVV work nowadays is happening only in clang and is available on
mainline in the llvm.org git tree.  Special options are required to enable
it though.  If you really want to try an RVV GCC port, you can find one at
github.com/riscv/riscv-gnu-toolchain on the rvv-intrinsics branch.  Note
that the submodules are not being kept up to date, but the branch names are
in the .gitmodules file, so you can use "git submodule update --remote" to
get the most recent commit for them.  I would however advise against trying
to use this compiler for any serious work.  It is buggy and out of date.
Use clang instead.  But since we aren't trying to put vector intrinsic
calls into glibc or the kernel, all you should really need is the assembler.
