The RISE RISC-V Runners: free, native RISC-V CI on GitHub

I’m a fan of this, although I’m concerned about the security/trust model: using a third-party CI orchestrator on top of GHA means trusting them with all of your secrets, potentially sensitive logs, etc. Those concerns are somewhat lessened in the context of public repos, but even public repos contain nontrivial workflows that use configured secrets.

My experience with RISC-V so far is that the chips are not much faster than QEMU emulation. In other words, it's very slow.

Sadly still on quite old hardware, with no RVV. Hopefully scaleway will have some newer servers in the future and this can be simply updated to the new devices.

Very good move. Hopefully GitHub won't ruin this with their CI charging changes.

..is this RVA23?

Perfect for snooping on other people’s projects. No one in their right mind would touch this. It’s cheaper to buy the board yourself.
