Rocket Chip SoC Generator

Tool

Rocket Chip SoC Generator is a framework used to generate RISC-V processor cores, including the in-order Rocket Core and the out-of-order BOOM Core. Evidence from ProcessorFuzz describes Rocket and BOOM as Chisel-based cores generated from the same framework and used in processor-fuzzing evaluations.

Overview

Rocket Chip SoC Generator is a framework for generating RISC-V processor cores. In the cited ProcessorFuzz evaluation, the authors describe the Rocket Core as an open-source, general-purpose, in-order RISC-V processor core that can be generated using the Rocket Chip SoC Generator framework. The same source describes the BOOM Core as an out-of-order, superscalar RISC-V processor core that can also be generated from the same framework.
