Re: RISC-V port?



Hi Zach,

Thanks. I will work on it. 

Can we get a ports-riscv list going?

I hang out with Shakti RISC-V project guys when possible. 

I want FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD running on their boards. 

I have Sifive Linux and lowRISC linux running on FPGAs. As according to their docs. 

FreeBSD runs on qemu. 

We can consider sifive_u machine on qemu as common platform to get all BSDs up. 

qemu -machine virt first. 

Thanks

Regards
Dinesh

Hi Dinesh,

The RISC-V port is not complete yet. I have the kernel booting to the
point that it wants to mount a root file system, but I am unable to
currently build userland and populate a root filesystem. There is
ongoing work to import a newer GCC that supports RISC-V code generation,
which would allow for this but it's not complete.

The current source is here: https://github.com/zmcgrew/src/

It hasn't landed in cvs yet, I got busy finishing up my master's
degree. I will try and work on it again as I get some more free time,
but that is in limited supply lately.
