RISC-V

More context

Recent RISC-V coverage focuses on rapid hardware and ecosystem progress: new RISC-V CPU and GPU platforms, broader Linux support (including a new Fedora “Omni” kernel), and improving real-world maker/desktop usability. On the software side, major AI/computer-vision tooling (OpenCV 5) is adding or optimizing for RISC-V alongside other architectures.
