<oriansj>stikonas: It is the SuperH clone https://j-core.org/
<oriansj>It is both big and little endian and the instruction encoding looks spot on for hex0
<stikonas>thanks
<oriansj>and SuperH appears to already be supported by GCC
<stikonas>well, as long as early hex encoding is easier than risc-v it should be good
<oriansj>and it looks like it has been in GCC since v3.2
<oriansj>the hex encoding looks literally hex aligned with only 8bit immediates and only 16bit instructions
<oriansj>So we will have to do jump load PC relative to load values larger than 8bit but that is a non-issue at this point.
<oriansj>and there is an ICE40 FPGA for it out too
<oriansj>so it might be a winner from the bootstrapping perspective
<muurkha>yay ICE40 <3
<stikonas>except for mes, tcc stages where x86 is still a winner
<oriansj>stikonas: very true but hey, that just gives us another option to provide going forward.
