Most RISC-V processors are proprietory, the C910 is partially open source, excluding the draft vector extension implementation where the bug was located.

Yeh it's a shame T-HEAD didn't release the source for the draft vector extension. Admittedly they had their reasons.

While it might be true, and remain true for high-end designs, we're really seeing a proliferation of mid-to-low end RISC-V SoCs out of china based on open source IP.

Shoudln’t this be the reason for customera to prefer 100% open processors?
