RISC-V: The Lowest Layer of the Cloud-Native Landscape
summary
RISC-V runs Kubernetes natively: a SiFive Unmatched board (quad-core, 16 GB) boots mainline Linux and hosts a k8s 1.20.4 node with system pods and an OpenFaaS function invoked successfully. Contributors landed ~40 PRs and patched ~20 projects to add support, built Debian-based base images and container stacks, and report ~90% of distro packages already build for RISC-V. Roadmap items: get distro images upstream and CI publishing so RISC-V becomes a first-class cloud-native target.
