#RISCV "Wait for Interrupt instruction (WFI) provides a hint to the implementation that the current hart can be stalled until an interrupt ... so a legal implementation is to simply implement WFI as a NOP" 🤔

@lupyuen ...what's wrong with that?
@exa Cool thanks! :-)
@lupyuen anyway I guess fixing this with 1 extra instruction that loops forever over the WFI is quite valid. I assume your interrupt handler will be able to jump over that, right?
@lupyuen if by "loop forever" you mean "the hart isn't going to execute past the WFI instruction", then yeah that code might be wrong
