 To enable ShadowCallStack, just pass the ``-fsanitize=shadow-call-stack`` flag
 to both compile and link command lines. On aarch64, you also need to pass
-``-ffixed-x18`` unless your target already reserves ``x18``. On RISC-V, ``x3``
-(``gp``) is always reserved. It is, however, important to disable GP relaxation
-in the linker. This can be done with the ``--no-relax-gp`` flag in GNU ld.
+``-ffixed-x18`` unless your target already reserves ``x18``. No additional flags
+need to be passed on RISC-V because the software based shadow stack uses ``x3`` (``gp``),
+which is always reserved, and the hardware based shadow call stack uses a dedicated register, ``ssp``.
