Red Hat Joins the RISC-V Foundation

'Red Hat has joined the RISC-V Foundation to help foster this
open-source processor ISA. Phoronix reports:

While we're still likely years away from seeing any serious RISC-V
powered servers at least that can deliver meaningful performance, Red
Hat has been active in promoting RISC-V as an open-source processor
instruction set architecture and one of the most promising libre
architectures we have seen over the years. Red Hat developers have
already helped in working on Fedora's RISC-V support and now the
IBM-owned company is helping out more and showing their commitment by
joining the RISC-V Foundation. Red Hat joins the likes of Google,
NVIDIA, Qualcomm, SiFive, Western Digital, IBM, and Samsung as among
the many RISC-V members. '
