The RISC-V specification process is governed by the Ratification Policy and more concisely articulated in the Specification Lifecycle and Milestone Definitions presentation. To help Task Group Chairs, Vice-chairs, and specification authors navigate this process, the RISC-V Lifecycle Guide has a whole section on "Specification Lifecycle" with an introductory section describing the process and subsections for each milestone that include step-by-step descriptions of the process. Before developing a RISC-V specification, one should familiarize themselves with this guide.
The development of RISC-V specifications is managed in Jira. To participate in this process, one needs an LFX id. More information on how to acquire one is found in the "Linux Foundation Tools" section of the RISC-V Getting Started Guide.
These additional links are provided to find out more about specifications currently under development:
- For a general overview of all document status, see the "RISC-V Specification Status" wiki page.
- For a more detailed view of Jira cards, see the "RISC-V Specifications for Chairs" Kanban board.
Any questions or problems should be sent to help@riscv.org or reported at help.riscv.org (GH issue repo which requires authorization and authentication).
Historical Status
The historical specification status, including the information know as the "Specification Dashboard" has been moved to the "Specification Status - Historical" page. Please reference it for legacy information.
