#mips — Public Fediverse posts

ASM-editor is a modern web application for writing, executing and learning M68K assembler code (and MIPS, RISC-V, X86), which uses the SvelteKit framework and the Rust programming language.

Since our last news item, among other things, an introductory course on general assembly languages and an AI assistant in each editor that takes control of the editor and the emulator have been added.

I have code for 1 KiB PageGrain on MIPS qemu, which should enable a demonstration of handling a case very near VAX 512 B pages while seamlessly guaranteeing within-allocation-unit promotions to 4 KiB and 16 KiB for 64 KiB allocation units and also seamlessly handling superpage promotions to sizes that are power-of-four multiples of 64 KiB. I think there may have been some testing of a similar scenario using 256 KiB allocation units on LoongArch, but while it was verified that it didn't crash, not much was done to make sure that effective use was being made of sub- allocation unit -sized superpages esp. when there were multiple superpage sizes available between the minimum MMU mapping granularity and the kernel allocation unit.

Rolling pgcl forward to 7.0 and the intermediate pre-7.1 somehow resuscitated binutils issues with running LTP and DAMON on hppa and some others, but it got to having no LTP regressions vs. master on 16 arches. I still need to induce enough fragmentation within a qemu session to be able to observe non-negligible defragmentation costs that might be reduced.

Запускаем Tetris на домашнем роутерe

Интернет пестрит информацией о том, как запускают DOOM на различных устройствах. Захотелось и мне запустить Doom на своём стареньком TP-Link WR-841N. Как видно из заголовка статьи, у меня этого не получилось, но результатом стало понимание основ написания прошивок роутеров и работающий тетрис.

Having a ball with my original 1996 PSX now that I replaced the optical drive. Such an awesome console, with a 32-bit 33.87MHz MIPS R3000A CPU (with no floating point) made on a 500nm node.

Magic at the time.

Here's Crash Bandicoot running at 512x240 resolution on a CRT via s-video. What a blast!

My SGI Octane I bought in 2004 probably continues to run after I die. That's what Made in Switzerland gets you.

Hi there, Silicon Graphics gang. The algorithm served me a nice video. Enjoy. (20 min)

We expect to continue support for #MIPS for the foreseeable future, and welcome contributions. Especially now that the patents have expired on many 64-bit MIPS designs! :)

Mixed feeling about #Debian promoting loongson/loongarch64 to official architecture status... cool to see #mips live on, but not so great to have another architecture to support you can hardly buy hardware for https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2025/12/msg00004.html

#LoongArch Promoted To Being An Official Architecture For #Debian14
Two years and a few months after LoongArch 64-bit "Loong64" was added to Debian Ports, it's now been promoted to being an official architecture for #Debian #Linux.
LoongArch is the #CPU architecture developed by #Loongson in #China and inspired by #MIPS and #RISCV.  https://www.phoronix.com/news/Debian-LoongArch64-Official

@waldwissen Danke für diesen wichtigen Beitrag über diese ebenfalls wichtige Forschung.
In #CostaRica kann man einen umgekehrten Trend beim Wohnungssozialbau erkennen. Anstelle von Holz kommt dort Stahl zum Einsatz. Es heisst, dass auf diese Weise mehr #Wald erhalten werden kann.
Unterm Strich kann man es drehen und wenden, wie man will: Wir Bewohner der Industrienationen verbrauchen zu viele Ressourcen. Sei es Stahl, Beton (und Sand!) oder Holz.
Interessant wäre hier noch ein Vergleich von der Wiege bis zur Bahre des Ressourcenverbrauchs zwischen den verschiedenen Varianten der konventionellen Schilderbrücken und denen aus Holz.
Erst dann würde man die für die Umwelt verträglichste Variante festlegen können.

w00t! I'll be giving my talk 'Misadventures in IoT Malware emulation' at #queencitycon next weekend in #cincinnati.

@zkat Wait a sec, VoCore2 is MT7628 which is #MIPS on #OpenWRT - not very supported for #Rust as far as I'm aware.

Very happy to announce that "Heavy Wizardry 101" has entered the Early Access program @nostarch

The books was written by #ROOR director and introduces you in the world of #Programming in #C and #ASM for #intel #ARM #MIPS and #risc_v . The book focus on #LowLevel #Programming as well as #SystemProgramming within the #cybersec domain.

Гиковские «часики»: уникальный гаджет с MIPS-процессором и Android на борту

Да, вам не показалось: Android и MIPS можно было подружить! В эпоху, когда ARM и AMD64 правят балом, устройства на иных процессорных архитектурах кажутся диковинкой. Но раньше производители устройств охотнее шли на эксперименты и особенно этим выделялась компания SmartQ . В 2009 году они разработали планшет аж с 3-мя операционными системами на борту, а в 2014 — гиковские Android-часы с очень экономичным и при этом мощным MIPS-чипсетом. Что внутри у такого необычного гаджета, как аккумулятор на 280мАч и Android уживаются вместе и почему 11-летние часы круче любых современных — читайте в подробной статье!

A question for chip gurus to explain (ie argue 😁) …

Purely in architectural terms (ie ignore current success / adoption etc) - which is/was the best architecture: #x86 vs #ARM vs #RISCV vs #MIPS vs #SPARC vs #IA64 vs Alpha - and why? What pros/cons of each make the choice?

Amazingly, someone showed up in #codeberg with an #inxi issue about #Loongson CPU support, something I have looked for data on for years. He provided 5 full sys-ci file pairs, which let me crudely emulate the cpu in test mode. Turned out the #MIPS detection failed because as of Loongson 3A5000 they have their own ISA, in other words it's its own type, forked from MIPS. Fixed the detection and many other glitches, added --loongson emulation flag, and now support works better than ever.

GlobalFoundries и MIPS: как бывшее подразделение AMD делает ставку на RISC-V

В июле 2025 года GlobalFoundries — один из крупнейших контрактных производителей чипов — объявил , что покупает MIPS Technologies, ту самую компанию, которая когда-то создала архитектуру MIPS. Сумма сделки не раскрывается, но уже ясно: это событие может заметно повлиять на всю индустрию. GlobalFoundries, некогда производственное подразделение AMD, стремится расширить свои возможности, а MIPS, сменившая множество владельцев, делает ставку на открытую архитектуру RISC-V и решения для перспективных рынков. Например, промышленная робототехника и умные автомобили. Что значит это слияние для обеих компаний и индустрии в целом?
