This seems really well put together, but I can't help but wonder how long until it gets a takedown notice from Google?

I've been a Linode customer since January 2009 (so over 7 years now) and would recommend them to anyone. I have been concerned about some of the security issues, but at the same time impressed with other work from the team (the KVM swi

There was a little bit of discussion when this was previously on HN: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11893911 (linking for completeness - I'm really glad this has seen more attention after resubmission!)

That's an interesting argument I hadn't considered. It would definitely be fun to collect some of these decisions in a document (bikeshed.md?) for others to refer to, and to get insight in to the thought that went in to the design

You can even use the GCC ifunc attribute and get the dynamic linker to handle selecting the right function.

I'd suggest you take a look at phabricator too which has great code review and issue tracking. It does unfortunately still lack support for a first class notion of a patch series.

Thanks for that, I didn't have access to a device to allow me to log in to Github at the time.

The repo seems to be lacking licence information unfortunately.

I believe the problem is the mixing of Debian and Ubuntu binaries rather than the fact they're not recompiling everything. Ubuntu doesn't just take Debian and add a few extra packages - it's a complete recompile with package

There's been no mention of phabricator yet so I thought I'd give it a shout out. It's used by LLVM, FreeBSD, Blender, Wikimedia and others and I love it. It's under very active development and even if it doesn't sol

VP10 is in active development, though I don't know how far along it is.

It's a shame the royalty-free VP9 wasn't also included in this comparison.

I answered a similar (but slightly different) question here: https://lobste.rs/s/jmgsyl/untethered_lowrisc_release/commen... , comparing lowRISC and the Open Processor Foundation.

Definitely, looking forward to catching up with you and everyone else this week. With areas we're currently estimating, it seems we would have the area budget for 4x 2-wide BOOM cores (of course it's all quite rough at the minute)

The current Rocket implementation is single issue in-order, but it was designed as a dual issue in-order core.

My response to a sibling question gives some details on recent developments. We're currently looking to target 28nm bulk CMOS.
