Obligatory reading: “RISC-V is not an “open-source processor””. I was, like most others, under the impression that RISC-V was an open source CPU. So, this is an important distinction.
Wait, so the RISC-V instruction set is open source, but the implementations of these (aka the actual CPUs) may or may not be opensource at discretion of the manufacturers/vendors?
Yep. But even a closed-source CPU is good if it makes the architecture more mainstream.
Yeah, that’s what I understood as well. As in, the ISA is the code, and the CPU is the binary.
Nice, but the name should be AS Roma :)
