Inside SiFive’s P550 Microarchitecture
https://old.chipsandcheese.com/2025/01/26/inside-sifives-p550-microarchitecture/

"The P550 is a 3-wide out-of-order core with a 13 stage pipeline. Out-of-order execution lets the core move past a stalled instruction to extract instruction level parallelism. It’s critical for achieving high performance because cache and memory latency can be significant limiters for modern CPUs."

I was able to boot Alpine on hifive permier p550

alpine:~# uname -a
Linux alpine 6.6.67-0-eswin #1-Alpine SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Thu, 26 Dec 2024 14:02:15 +0000 riscv64 Linux

But I'm not sure if linux-eswin is a good name for the kernel package.

Samsung is porting the Tizen operating system that powers its smart TVs to work with RISC-V chips like the SiFive Performance P470. https://buff.ly/3zG1TNj #RiscV #Tizen #Samsung #SmartTV #SiFive

A recent PR by Logan Chien has added a RISC-V JIT backend to PyPy: https://github.com/pypy/pypy/pull/5002

This allows running PyPy with JIT on both emulated and physical RISC-V systems.

It's a great addition to PyPy and hopefully will attract the attention of RISC-V users and researchers to the project.

Has anyone here ever purchased anything from Mouser ? I tried to buy a Sifive Unmatched from there and a day later the order was cancelled by their Customer Accounts Team "after further review". I will be calling them for more info but it just struck me as one of the weirdest experiences I have had with an online store.

all the junk i ordered got here.
so i think i have all the hardware bits to get my #vision5 2 risc-v board running.

Now for the software....

Massive reorg at #SiFive? Are they flexing their silicon muscles for a suitor? @ElonMusk, sneaking in another acquisition? Or maybe #Intel is trying to get a grip? Who’s not arm wrestling for #ARM in PCs these days? Looking at you, #AMD!

The Risk of #RISCV: What's Going on at #SiFive?
SiFive Lays Off Hundreds of RISC-V Developers. Restructuring is ongoing, says company.
One big change is that SiFive seems to be reducing focus on ready-to-use chip designs. Instead, they are primarily are going to work on custom designs made for specific customer needs. This is a big shift and means that SiFive is narrowing its focus and offering fewer options to customers.

RISC-V chip design company SiFive has reportedly laid off a number of employees, potentially shuttering its RISC-V core design & licensing business to focus on custom cores for individual customers. https://morethanmoore.substack.com/p/the-risk-of-risc-v-whats-going-on #SiFive #RiscV #chips
