Sep 1, 2025

September 2025 monthly summary for golang/arch: Focused on improving the RISC-V disassembler correctness and FP handling. Delivered targeted improvements to decode MOVD/MOVF, initialized FP registers to 0.0, implemented binary register copy between integer and FP registers, and fixed the load/store argument order bug. These changes enhance disassembly accuracy, reduce misinterpretation of instructions, and improve reliability for developers debugging RISC-V binaries.

May 1, 2025

May 2025 focused on strengthening RISC-V vector support and encoding correctness across two repositories. Delivered RVV 1.0 support in golang/arch, including disassembly, test coverage, and a refactor enabling reuse of vector argument handling across instructions. Implemented targeted bug fixes in itchyny/go to align RISC-V vector encodings with specifications, addressing invalid vadc/vsbc encodings, LMUL encoding for MF2/MF8, and vector multiply-add sequences. These efforts improved correctness, broadened hardware compatibility, and enhanced maintainability and testing.

Apr 1, 2025

April 2025 monthly summary: Stabilized RISCV-related development work across two repos by delivering two critical bug fixes that reduce build and load-time failures, improving cross-arch support and CI reliability.

December 2024

5 Commits • 2 Features

Dec 1, 2024

December 2024 performance summary focusing on Go toolchain enhancements and RISC-V support. Delivered RVA23u64 support for GORISCV64, stabilized the riscv64 assembler by eliminating duplicate error reports and preventing crashes on invalid branches, and corrected instruction encoding for REV8 and ORCB. Also published documentation clarifying GORISCV64 behavior. These changes improve runtime correctness, developer experience, and readiness for RVA23 profiles across the Go ecosystem.

November 2024
