A new server-class RISC-V processor with 46 cores has been shown running mainstream Linux, a milestone for the open instruction set architecture beyond embedded and hobbyist uses. The announcement is drawing attention in the semiconductor and open-source hardware communities, where RISC-V is seen as a potential alternative to Arm and x86 in datacenter workloads.

Why now: RISC-V reaching server-class core counts with mainstream Linux support marks a notable step in its challenge to Arm and x86.
