The error message is  
pip.\_internal.exceptions.InstallationError: Command errored out with exit status 1: git submodule sync Check the logs for full command output.  
Did you look at the logs for the full command output? Did you try running git by hand?

This doesn’t look like a u540 or RISC-V specific problem, it looks like an ordinary linux issue. You could try asking in a opencv-python issue.
