Thanks for the patch. Do you know a document which explains the ABI of this
architecture (I mean: register usage, max number of arguments passed in
registers, stack direction, stack alignment, etc.)?

For the moment, I am only able to guess, based on [1] which says that
LoongArch is basically a clone of mips64 with different encoding of the
instructions. So, I've applied your patch.

        sigsegv: Improve cross-compilation support for LoongArch CPU.
        * m4/stack-direction.m4 (SV_STACK_DIRECTION): Assume the stack grows
        down on LoongArch.
