Even going over the list of contributors to RISC-V, you'll find some familiar names. NetBSD doesn't have a full RISC-V port yet because it is difficult to create a new port and takes time, and people might not have the free time & energy to work on it, or rank other things as more important to them personally. zmcgrew is doing a lot of work on it, but it is still not complete. Help is welcome, of course.

This probably isn't the right media to submit a 2 to 5 page A4 essay about the subject of RISC-V. Most of us don't have the time to write such things. Most of us do have the time to watch TV or a video. That's the way that large parts of the population of this planet actually receive their information. -- Richard

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.

Re: RISC-V port?
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. -Zach Dinesh Thirumurthy writes: > Hi Matt, Reinoud, NetBSD Users, > > Wishing you all a great 2019. > > I am looking for NetBSD support on RISC-V. > According to RISC-V Foundation's website, > > https://riscv.org/software-status/ > > The information for NetBSD is: > > NetBSD > > Maintainer(s): Matt Thomas (NetBSD), Reinoud Zandijk (NetBSD) > Version: > Status: > Upstreaming status: > Future work: > Upstream repository: > http://cvsweb.netbsd.org/bsdweb.cgi/src/?only_with_tag=MAIN > https://github.com/jsonn/src (Git Mirror) > Privileged Spec: 1.9 > User Spec: 2.0 > ABI: > > -- > Apart from Zachary's work at https://github.com/zmcgrew/riscv-tools-netbsd > > Is there a port being worked on?

RISC-V port?
Hi Matt, Reinoud, NetBSD Users, Wishing you all a great 2019. I am looking for NetBSD support on RISC-V. According to RISC-V Foundation's website, https://riscv.org/software-status/ The information for NetBSD is: NetBSD Maintainer(s): Matt Thomas (NetBSD), Reinoud Zandijk (NetBSD) Version: Status: Upstreaming status: Future work: Upstream repository: http://cvsweb.netbsd.org/bsdweb.cgi/src/?only_with_tag=MAIN https://github.com/jsonn/src (Git Mirror) Privileged Spec: 1.9 User Spec: 2.0 ABI: -- Apart from Zachary's work at https://github.com/zmcgrew/riscv-tools-netbsd Is there a port being worked on? What is the appropriate mailing list to post this? Thanks very much. Regards, Dinesh
