RISC-V ISA Instruction Quick Reference Update
March 03, 2024 (riscv.org,spec,html)
The Instructions Quickref has been updated to match the changes made for Compiler Explorer.
The opcode references are generated from opcodes.yaml which is generated by convert_opcodes.rb in https://github.com/five-embeddev/riscv-docs-html/tree/gh_pages.
RISC-V ISA Reference for Compiler Explorer
November 15, 2023 (riscv.org,spec,html)
Compiler explorer now includes RISC-V opcode references for the rv64 targets, following my pull pull request and initial work by Siyao.
The updated files are:
- etc/scripts/docenizers/docenizer-riscv64.py: Generator, converts
yamltots. - lib/asm-docs/generated/asm-docs-riscv64.ts: The generated opcode documentation.
The opcode references are generated from opcodes.yaml which is generated by convert_opcodes.rb in https://github.com/five-embeddev/riscv-docs-html/tree/gh_pages.
The opcode decriptions are automatically extracted from the ISA user manual in HTML format. For example the description for sd is extracted from the Load and Store Instructions section.
To generate the data run these commands in the compiler explorer repo:
cd compiler-explorer/etc/scripts/docenizers/
./docenizer-riscv64.py \
-i https://five-embeddev.github.io/riscv-docs-html/opcodes.yaml \
-o ../../../lib/asm-docs/generated/asm-docs-riscv64.ts
RISC-V ISA Manuals to HTML
July 31, 2023 (riscv.org,spec,html,docker)
The User ISA and Privileged ISA have been are converted to HTML from TEX on the upstream repo.
The latest upstream versions have recently been converted to asciidoc, but the legacy versions that were used to generate HTML on this site are converted from the older TEX.
In theory converting tex should be as simple as running a conversion tool such as pandoc or latex2html but without some optimization that gives quite ugly results - in particular for tables and diagrams.
The set of scripts that this blog uses to optimize the pandoc output has been uploaded to https://github.com/five-embeddev/riscv-docs-html. A Dockerfile is used to configure a build environment with pandoc and asciidoctor and the other tools used to do the conversion.
A set of static html github pages have been exported here, https://five-embeddev.github.io/riscv-docs-html/. They HTML is identical, but it lacks the side navigation menu and css style used by this site.
These scripts are also used to create the opcodes.yaml and csr.yaml data files used by the Instruction Quick Reference and CSR Quick Reference on this site.
More info on that will be posted later.
RISC-V Interrupts/Exceptions Quick Reference
May 11, 2023 (interrupts,quickref)
A fix has been made to the Interrupts/Exceptions Quick Reference to clarify that mstatus.mpp is set to the the least-privileged supported mode on mret. The local version of Machine-Level ISA has been updated to the Priv-v1.12 source as this is the current version on https://riscv.org/technical/specifications/. References to the depreciated user mode interrupts and the n extension were also removed.
