you are one of the few who could pull that off. the alternative would be to send the board to cinap, and he'd probably deploy a compiler+kernel in a couple of weeks. On Fri, Jul 26, 2019, 12:31 PM Charles Forsyth wrote: > I was thinking of doing that since I've got an ESP-32 for some reason > >

Does anybody have any suggestions as to what it would take to create a C compiler for Xtensa (it is basically a 32 bit sorta-like RISC architecture)? Since C compilers do exist for Xtensa (both Arduino and ESIF) , is it at all possible to port Plan 9 C compilers using a "host" compiler as a semi-b

Hi, I've been interested in porting plan 9 to new platforms for a long time (platforms such as https://onion.io/omega2/, just to give an example) but I lacked the knowledge to do so. Recently I studied computer architecture from Harris & Harris (Digital Design and Computer Architecture) and basics

I am not sure I will solve your problem, but maybe give some input. I had a similar problem (That the '<' key to the right of the left shift key on ISO-style keyboards didn't work) on a Bell Labs Plan 9 on my Raspberry PI (though it might nowadays, it is an old installation on that sdcard). It does
