Last year, I gave a talk about running upstream embedded Linux on RISC-V with the powerful SpacemiT K1-based Banana Pi BPI-F3 as an example. Fast forward one year, and we have many a new contender on the block. This talk first revisits the BPI-F3, looking at the upstreaming progress made and issues remaining. Secondly, it introduces the new Siflower SF21H8898-based Banana Pi BPI-RV2, the ESWIN Computing EIC7700-based EBC77 with SiFive HiFive Premier P550 cores and the Ky X1-based Orange Pi RV2 and R2S. Those are all interesting new boards I added to my embedded Linux testing lab. Comparing the various downstream vendor options with the upstreaming efforts will show us the overall progress embedded Linux has made on RISC-V. Last but not least, I will discuss the upcoming RVA23-compatible boards based on chips like the SpacemiT K3 SoC with its X100 cores, the Tenstorrent TT-Ascalon IP SoC, the UltraRISC UR-DP1000 and the Zhihe A600 SoC. The time is truly ripe for embedded Linux to shine on RISC-V!
