Tumbleweed on Mars-CM (RISC-V board)
RISC-V is awesome, Tumbleweed is awesome, chocolate cake is awesome. I'm planning to combine all of them in one project.
Project Description
I recently purchased a MILK-V Mars CM and managed to setup it up already using Debian Linux. My project for this Hackweek is to see how far I can get to run Tumbleweed on this compute module board.
Goal for this Hackweek
- Run Tumbleweed on the Compute Module

I'm trying to flash the openSUSE Tumbleweed image for the VisionFive2 to my eMMC Mars CM and am a bit stuck there: https://community.milkv.io/t/how-to-flash-the-emmc-on-the-mars-cm/854/3

I managed to build and flash a new U-Boot. With this I can reach GRUB via UEFI on our Tumbleweed images for the VisionFive Starfive2

FizzBuzz OS by mssola
Project Description
FizzBuzz OS (or just fbos) is an idea I've had in order to better grasp the fundamentals of the low level of a RISC-V machine. In practice, I'd like to build a small Operating System kernel that is able to launch three processes: one that simply prints "Fizz", another that prints "Buzz", and the third which prints "FizzBuzz". These processes are unaware of each other and it's up to the kernel to schedule them by using the timer interrupts as given on openSBI (fizz on % 3 seconds, buzz on % 5 seconds, and fizzbuzz on % 15 seconds).
This kernel provides just one system call, write, which allows any program to pass the string to be written into stdout.
This project is free software and you can find it here.
Goal for this Hackweek
- Better understand the RISC-V SBI interface.
- Better understand RISC-V in privileged mode.
- Have fun.

RISC-V emulator in GLSL capable of running Linux by favogt
Description
There are already numerous ways to run Linux and some programs through emulation in a web browser (e.g. x86 and riscv64 on https://bellard.org/jslinux/), but none use WebGL/WebGPU to run the emulation on the GPU.
I already made a PoC of an AArch64 (64-bit Arm) emulator in OpenCL which is unfortunately hindered by a multitude of OpenCL compiler bugs on all platforms (Intel with beignet or the new compute runtime and AMD with Mesa Clover and rusticl). With more widespread and thus less broken GLSL vs. OpenCL and the less complex implementation requirements for RV32 (especially 32bit integers instead of 64bit), that should not be a major problem anymore.
Goals
Write an RISC-V system emulator in GLSL that is capable of booting Linux and run some userspace programs interactively. Ideally it is small enough to work on online test platforms like Shaderoo with a custom texture that contains bootstrap code, kernel and initrd.
Minimum:
riscv32 without FPU (RV32 IMA) and MMU (µClinux), running Linux in M-mode and userspace in U-mode.
Stretch goals:
FPU support, S-Mode support with MMU, SMP. Custom web frontend with more possibilities for I/O (disk image, network?).

Create openSUSE images for Arm/RISC-V boards by avicenzi
Project Description
Create openSUSE images (or test generic EFI images) for Arm and/or RISC-V boards that are not yet supported.
Goal for this Hackweek
Create bootable images of Tumbleweed for SBCs that currently have no images available or are untested.
Consider generic EFI images where possible, as some boards can hold a bootloader.
Document in the openSUSE Wiki how to flash and use the image for a given board.
Boards that I have around and there are no images:
- Rock 3B
- Nano PC T3 Plus
- Lichee RV D1
- StartFive VisionFive (has some image needs testing)

Explore Microchip PIC64GX1000 Curiosity board (riscv64) by a_faerber
Description
The Microchip PIC64 family of RISC-V chipsets was announced this summer, with PIC64GX as first subfamily (with SiFive U54 CPU cores, same as Microchip PolarFire). Later families (PIC64-HPSC and PIC64HX) were announced to feature the long-awaited RISC-V Hypervisor Extension.
My pre-ordered PIC64GX1000 Curiosity board arrived the week before Hackweek 24.
Goals
I intend to investigate enabling openSUSE Tumbleweed riscv64 on this new chipset and board.
Resources
Progress
- Created udev rules for Curiosity board's FTDI based debug UARTs on USB-C - UART B has output from HSS / OpenSBI, UART C has output from U-Boot and kernel
- Modified the image https://download.opensuse.org/ports/riscv/tumbleweed/images/openSUSE-Tumbleweed-RISC-V-JeOS-efi.riscv64-2024.11.10-Build1.13.raw.xz (20241118) with gdisk to prepend a bootloader partition (copying the binary bootloader from the vendor-supplied microSD, ignoring excess partition size) and added the microchip/pic64gx-curiosity-kit.dtb file to the EFI System Partition (again from the vendor-supplied microSD)
- This boots into Tumbleweed! with ttyS1 by default (UART C)
Update Haskell ecosystem in Tumbleweed to GHC-9.10.x by psimons
Description
We are currently at GHC-9.8.x, which a bit old. So I'd like to take a shot at the latest version of the compiler, GHC-9.10.x. This is gonna be interesting because the new version requires major updates to all kinds of libraries and base packages, which typically means patching lots of packages to make them build again.
Goals
Have working builds of GHC-9.10.x and the required Haskell packages in 'devel:languages:haskell` so that we can compile:
