|
## Goals
|
|
|
|
* Learn more about RISC-V architecture and ISA
|
|
* Learn more about WebAssembly 2.0 by targeting a JIT compiler to current browser feature set
|
|
* Run simple static Linux binaries compiled for RV64GC in a web browser or node.js environment
|
|
* Support multiple cores with shared memory
|
|
|
|
## Stretch goals
|
|
|
|
* emulate enough hardware interface to run a Linux kernel
|
|
|
|
## Non-goals
|
|
|
|
* be commercially exploitable
|
|
* be a big popular project
|
|
* run arbitrary complex programs (eg kernel usermode emulation)
