It's unfortunate that the spec avoided designing a clean solution to a simple problem and drags in the complexity of PC baggage such as ACPI and UEFI to avoid doing work.
- snvzz 1y ago>to avoid doing work The problem with "doing work" is that work does take time. Being late means widespread non-standardized, bespoke vendor specific solutions. Exactly the one thing RISC-V International strongly wants to avoid. Won't go into judging ACPI and UEFI, and how misunderstood or desirable they are. RISC-V chose to adopt these, and to standardize what the baseline platform is, and specify how ACPI and UEFI are implemented.
