RISC-V

ISA

RISC-V is a free and open instruction set architecture (ISA) based on RISC principles. The supplied evidence shows it is widely used in verification workflows and is also a target of security research, including surveys on root-of-trust and leakage protection and a paper demonstrating return-oriented programming on RISC-V.

RISC-V

Overview

RISC-V is a free and open instruction set architecture (ISA) based on reduced instruction set computer (RISC) principles. The supplied survey evidence says it has attracted attention in industry and academia and is becoming mainstream. [citation: RISC-V overview and adoption]
