Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

How to improve the RISC-V specification
Ssstrict is supposed to address the undefined behaviour problem, or at least it'll make undefined instructions actually trap.

Raspberry Pi receives strategic investment from Arm
>there are a lot of incompatible ISA implementations of RISC-V
This is common FUD.
In reality, most chips in the market, including all known application processors, follow the RVA profile[0] spec.
So do Linux distributions.

You Won’t Believe This One Weird CPU Instruction (2019)
The bit manipulation [0] extension has been ratified for a while now and is part of the RVA22 application extension profile [1].
You can already buy SOCs that support it, e.g. vision five 2 and star64.
Interestingly the risc-v vector has it's own popcount instructions for vector registers/register masks. This is needed, because the scalable architecture doesn't guarantee that a vector mask can fit into a 64 bit register, so vector masks are stored in a single LMUL=1 register. This works really well, because with LMUL=8 and SEW=8 you get 100% utilization of the single LMUL=1 vector register.
Another interesting thing is that the vector crypto extension will likely introduce a element wise popcount instruction.

The legend of "x86 CPUs decode instructions into RISC form internally"
That's why we have RISC-V profiles.

Why is std::hardware_destructive_interference_size a compile-time constant instead of a run-time value?
Yeah more or less. They now have RISC-V Application Profiles which are basically minimum requirements for "application processors" - essentially devices like phones where you might want to distribute binary apps.

RISC-V Profiles
Context: RISC-V profiles spec got ratified last week.

RISC-V Business: Testing StarFive's VisionFive 2 SBC
Yeah unfortunately there isn't really a great place that lists all the extensions with links and ratification status.
But anyway there is a sort of standard set of extensions that "application processors" (I guess CPUs that want to run precompiled code) should support:

TinyEMU – x86 and RISC-V emulator, small and simple while being complete
Ah, you're right: https://github.com/riscv/riscv-profiles/blob/main/profiles.a...
That's good to see. (Boy, it's really hard to find info about RISC-V profiles on Google. It just seems to ignore all the letters and numbers.)
