Phoronix Article: More Details On The Proposed Simple-V Extension To RISC-V For GPU Workloads

By January 4, 2019May 12th, 2021No Comments

With the proposed Libre RISC-V Vulkan accelerator aiming to effectively be an open-source GPU built atop the open-source RISC-V ISA there were recently some new details published on how the design is expected to work out.
For this very ambitious libre RISC-V SoC design. that EOMA68 developer Luke Kenneth Casson Leighton wants to pursue through crowdfunding, it’s just not a matter of spinning his own RISC-V design but for making the SoC suitable for GPU workloads he has talked of a “Simple-V” extension he envisions.
