“…However, its academic impact is small compared to others and there has been no recent contribution activity. Both RiscyOO (also named riscy-OOO) [45] and AnyCore [22] succeeding FabScalar [21] are smaller projects with only 2 or 5 code contributors, have not been taped out yet 2 , and are not actively maintained.

The numerous emerging implementations of RISC-V processors and frameworks underline the success of this Instruction Set Architecture (ISA) specification. The free and open source character of many implementations facilitates their adoption in academic and commercial projects. As yet it is not easy to say which implementation fits best for a system with given requirements such as processing performance or power consumption. With varying backgrounds and histories, the developed RISC-V processors are very different from each other. Comparisons are difficult, because results are reported for arbitrary technologies and configuration settings. Scaling factors are used to draw comparisons, but this gives only rough estimates. In order to give more substantiated results, this paper compares the most prominent open-source application-class RISC-V projects by running identical benchmarks on identical platforms with defined configuration settings. The Rocket, BOOM, CVA6, and SHAKTI C-Class implementations are evaluated for processing performance, area and resource utilization, power consumption as well as efficiency. Results are presented for the Xilinx Virtex UltraScale+ family and GlobalFoundries 22FDX ASIC technology. CCS CONCEPTS• Computer systems organization → System on a chip; Serial architectures.
