Run RISC-V Binaries on AMD Zen-Series CPUs via Microcode Modification
This challenge requires participants to modify microcode on AMD Zen-series CPUs to natively execute RISC-V binaries or accelerate RISC-V binary execution.
Current AMD Zen-series CPUs (e.g., EPYC 9004 series) have begun integrating RISC-V coprocessors for specific acceleration tasks. Zentool, developed by Google's Security Research team, is a toolkit for analyzing, modifying, and generating microcode patches for AMD Zen-series processors. Performance Optimization Testing: Run RISC-V binary versions of benchmark applications (e.g., Coremark, Dhrystone) on Zen-series CPUs.
