Overview
The OpenRISC 2000 Project (colloquially OR2K) aims to develop a successor to the OpenRISC 1000 family of processors.
Key features (still up for discussion):
- Not backwards compatible with OR1K
- But draws on many OR1K features
- Modular in design
- Targeted at large FPGAs
- Suitable for multi-core use
Subjects under discussion
Various people have made suggestions for OR2K that we should consider.
Analysis of Existing (OR1K) Architecture
Architectural design
Tool chain and libraries
The tool chain will (initially at least) be GNU. The intention is to develop a CGEN model of the architecture, and from that derive assembler/dissasembler and simulator and the rest of binutils. After that we can build GCC and GDB.
It's likely we will need both the newlib and uClibc libraries.
- ArchC for OR2K (SystemC Model)
Operating systems
It is expected that both Linux and various RTOS will be supported on the OR2K.
