I understand about this. I do some initial support for K230 only for my evaluation purpose and propose this tree to provide information for others to boot up a minimal kernel and also have another patch [1] to have a USB node so we will able to run a distro like Debian over NFS rootfs by USB ethernet which is on canmv k230 board. But I want to say I may have no time to do further driver development. I have done this for my evaluation purpose to get some performance metrics on real RVV chips for research usage since I’m a Ph.D. student focused on computer architecture. I have to devote my time to my research work. If anyone wants to do some further driver development, please don’t hesitate to do so. Don’t imagine I may be doing this, so you may do duplicate work. I’m too busy to do that. [1] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-riscv/tencent_E9B853316D217B8D1E7CDF8288DA5E8ED908@xxxxxx/ Thanks, Yangyu Chen > Thanks, > Conor.
