risc-v linux

The risc-v linux tag on WindowsForum.com follows news and discussion about running the Linux kernel on RISC-V hardware, including embedded and microcontroller-class devices. Recent coverage centers on Espressif's ESP32-S31, the first ESP32 part with RISC-V cores supporting Sv32 page-table address translation, the memory-management feature a standard Linux kernel requires. A developer-preview board-support package has appeared, and community builds reportedly boot Linux 6.18 and 7.1 on development boards. Discussion also notes the limits: in-package PSRAM only, no DRAM controller, and warnings against production use, so the chip is not a Raspberry Pi replacement.
