I added type-based color printing to my hexdump in my kernel [1] if anyone wants to have that code. It was instrumental in finding bugs quickly in wee hours of the night sometimes, especially if you have heap corruption.

At the level that LLVM's LTO operates, no information about classes or objects is left, so LLVM itself can't really devirtualize C++ methods in most cases

It looks like threads.net is going to be a web version -- though it isn't very clear how useful it will be.

Likely that it supports the Supervisor execution environment from the riscv spec [1]. This means it can run the typical ring 0 and ring 3 for kernelspace and userspace respectively, and importantly the board supports virtual memory.

Do you rebind your caps lock to escape? That's what I did, and it's become second nature at this point.
The overhead we saw there is suprisingly just from instruction and branch overhead from using software handles - I have ongoing work to do it in hardware and the overheads are much lower.
