RISC-V is already putting the squeeze on ARM in the embedded market. RISC-V is fewer gates at almost every performance level the embedded market is interested in due to having a tighter, non-legacy ISA (there's even the open SERV core which fits RISC-V into an insanely small 2.1KGe).

RISC-V likely has a future in mobile devices as it crawls up the performance tree like ARM did. This leaves ARM in a tight squeeze between x86 on the top and RISC-V on the bottom.

And QERV, only slightly bigger, yet dramatically faster.

I am waiting for this RISC-V Cortex 42... they better move there, and everybody will be happy.
