x86, ARM to fight Tencent joined the RISC-V Foundation to fully support domestic open source CPU

RISC-V is a new CPU instruction set, and now it has grown into the third largest CPU camp after x86 and ARM. Its open and open source advantages have also been sought after by domestic manufacturers. Now Tencent has also joined the RISC-V Foundation , and is a Premier Members senior member.

In this level, there are also domestic companies such as Alibaba Cloud, Beijing Open Source Chip Research Institute, Chengcheng Capital, Haihe Laboratory, Huawei, ZTE, Saifang, Sim Computing, and Zhanrui.

In addition, Gao Jianlin, head of Tencent Penglai Lab, will also represent Tencent in the TSC Technical Steering Committee and actively participate in the development of RISC-V.

Before Tencent joined the RISC-V Foundation, it was already strongly supporting domestic CPUs. Mr. Bao Yungang from the Institute of Computing Technology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences said that Tencent is the earliest open source high-performance RISC-V processor core to fully support “Xiangshan”. A group of enterprises.

In the past year, with the support of Tencent and some core enterprises, Fragrant Hills has developed by leaps and bounds—from prototype samples developed by scientific research institutions to industrial-grade IP cores for mass production.

Xiangshan is an open source CPU created by Bao Yungang in conjunction with education and corporate institutions. The second-generation Xiangshan, code-named Nanhu, has built a high-performance core that is comparable to the ARM A76 with the support of Tencent and other companies. The third-generation Xiangshan, code-named Kunming Lake The CPU will benchmark the open source RISC-V processor core of the current ARM highest performance CPU core.
