  • US Government reportedly ponders crimping China's use of RISC-V
    1 project | news.ycombinator.com | 24 Apr 2024
    > I'm pretty sure that SiFive isn't allowed to sell their RISC-V core designs to any Chinese company already.

    The JH7110 SoC from the Chinese firm Starfive uses SiFive's U74 core. Eswin, also Chinese uses SiFive's P550 core in their upcoming EIC7700 SoC.

    > All Chinese RISC-V core designs have been proprietary designs thus far.

    There is the OpenC910 [1] and OpenXiangShan [2].

    Note that the C910 CPU cores used in this chip are in fact open source:

    (C920 is just C910 plus RVV draft 0.7.1 vector unit which pretty much no software uses anyway, sadly)

    More precisely, a Chinese university assembled a rack containing 48 [1] commercially available SBCs [2], each with a Chinese-designed and made SG2042 SoC with 64 C910 CPU cores. The C910 was designed in China in 2018/19 and open-sourced in October 2021, on Microsoft's github site.

    The SG2042 is the most powerful RISC-V SoC available today.

    In which direction is the technology transfer going?

    For "coming down the pipeline" they're essentially free.

    Today, the c910 is an Apache 2, hardware proven out of order core on GitHub here https://github.com/T-head-Semi/openc910 a little slower than an RPi3's core.

    * AFAIK they didn't opensource the pre ratification vector extension implementation they ship with the taped out chip.

    It's a shame, because it was the best design from ARM; they're now focusing on Cortex-A7x and Cortex-X, which aren't anywhere as power efficient[0].

    Meanwhile, their revised Cortex-A57 has been surpassed in performance/power/area by several RISC-V microarchitectures, such as SiFive's U74[1], used in the VisionFive2 and Star64, or even the open source XuanTie C910[2][3].
