Oh, so I guess the Sunway thing isn't as much like Neo conceptually as it looked to me from what little information I had. (I wasn't thinking about the ISA.)

Oh, so I guess the Sunway thing isn't as much like Neo conceptually as it looked to me from what little information I had. (I wasn't thinking about the ISA.) Of course the media are mainly useful for indications to chase primary sources. The point about the OS related to the Linux-based one for Sunway, but maybe it only runs on the management processor anyhow, with just offload to the others. I'd commented in that respect that we really don't want something like Linux in an ideal world, so I'm pleased to see mention of L4. Thanks for the comments, and good luck.
