It is essential though, so it's an important step towards having entirely open CPUs
- ilyt 3y agoProprietary ISA with open peripherals would be FAR better than other way around. Frankly the ISA part is easiest to change from OS kernel perspective. If "open" ISA comes with a bunch of blobs it's essentially exactly same situation as using ARM chip.
