RISC-V Platform Specification

The files in this project are used to create the RISC-V Platform Specification. This specification defines the set of firmware and hardware required of a RISC-V platform so that it may install and run various operating systems.

The content of the specification is created and controlled by the RISC-V Platform Horizontal Subcommittee (RISC-V Platform HSC). Information about the subcommittee can be found at https://lists.riscv.org/g/tech-unixplatformspec. Please note that membership in RISC-V International is required to post to the mailing list, but it is publicly readable. Membership in RISC-V International is free for individual community members.

All discussion of this specification occurs on the task group mailing list. Please use github issues for bug reports.
