$NetBSD: ports,v 1.9 2021/10/31 08:11:13 nia Exp $ NetBSD Ports Roadmap ==================== This roadmap covers ports and port-specific issues, and also bus-level material even if it's not strictly port-specific. The following elements, projects, and goals are considered strategic priorities for the project: 0. DRMKMS update The following elements, projects, and goals are not strategic priorities but are still important undertakings worth doing: 1. riscv and/or or1k ports 2. cheri port The following elements, projects, and goals are perhaps less pressing; this doesn't mean one shouldn't work on them but the expected payoff is perhaps less than for other things: [none presently] Explanations ============ 0. DRMKMS update The DRM drivers get old with time. The current drivers are from Linux 4.4, having a newer version would be nice. - As of July 2018, maya is working on this. 1. riscv and/or or1k ports We have some riscv code and a bit of or1k code, but neither is done. - As of July 2018, zmcgrew is working on riscv in a separate repository https://github.com/zmcgrew/src/tree/riscv Nobody is working on or1k. - Contact matt@ for further information. 2. cheri port http://cheri-cpu.org There are a number of reasons to tackle this; it will serve as a code quality lever. Also there's already a FreeBSD port to steal from.
