HIFIVE1-VP

An instruction set simulator based on DBT-RISE implementing the RISC-V ISA. The project is hosted at https://github.com/Minres/HIFIVE1-VP.

HIFIVE1-VP README

This is work in progress, so use at your own risk. Goal is to implement an open-source ISS which can easily embedded e.g. into SystemC Virtual Prototypes. It uses code generation to allow easy extension and adaptation of the used instruction. Please see also https://github.com/Minres/DBT-RISE-RISCV The RISC-V ISS reaches about 65MIPS running on a decent Intel Processor.

HIFIVE1-VP uses libGIS (https://github.com/vsergeev/libGIS) under MIT license
