Adding Xtensa ISA support in Renode for the Sound Open Firmware project
The Xtensa architecture, originally from Tensilica (now part of Cadence), is the base for a family of licensable, configurable cores, enabling easy customization.
This is especially useful in certain applications such as DSP (digital signal processing), and thereby audio, where careful fine-tuning of the processing core configuration alongside the firmware can yield concrete power and performance advantages which could decide the make or break of a product.

RISC-V vector instructions support in Renode
Building on top of the flexibility that was the original premise of Renode, our open source simulation framework has for some years now been used for pre-silicon development, architectural exploration and hardware-software co-design. Read more

Sharing files between host and simulated platform in Renode with Virtio and other means
Renode is an open-source hardware simulation framework developed by Antmicro. Thanks to its modularity and configurability it can simulate a wide range of platforms and run different kinds of software, ranging from simple bare-metal or small RTOS-based applications consisting of a single, self-contained binary, up to full-blown Linux-based setups. The challenge of running more complex simulations lies in the number of components that you need to prepare, configure and (most probably) update in subsequent iterations. Read more

Renode’s Zephyr dashboard: simulating 100 Zephyr platforms
Renode is an open source software development framework which allows its users to run a multitude of operating systems and software on a range of embedded platforms, from ARM, LEON, POWER to RISC‑V. At Antmicro, we work with most popular open source RTOSs and frameworks, but as a Platinum Member of the Zephyr Project, we are especially happy to enable a wider and easier adoption of this vendor neutral RTOS, as well as improving its testing and CI capabilities, with Renode.
