This repository investigates how RISC-V can be leveraged for blockchain applications, with a dual focus:\n\n1. Linux syscalls and execution clients in RISC-V environments\n2. Performance benchmarking of zkVM precompiles \n\n## Project Structure\n\n### Linux Syscalls Analysis (`/linux-syscalls`)\n\nThis project focuses on compiling Ethereum execution clients for the RISC-V architecture and analyzing syscalls during stateless execution:\n\n- **Geth (Go Ethereum)**: Compilation and execution of the Go-based Ethereum Virtual Machine\n- **Reth (Rust Ethereum)**: Implementation and analysis of the Rust-based Ethereum client\n- **Nim**: Experiments with the Nim programming language on RISC-V\n\nThe goal is to understand system call patterns and optimize execution for RISC-V environments.\n\n### zkVM Precompile Benchmarking (`/zkvm-precomile-bench`)\n\nThis project analyzes the performance impact of precompiles in various Zero-Knowledge Virtual Machines:\n\n- Documents precompiles across multiple zkVMs (RISC0, SP1, Airbender, Zisk, OpenVM, Ziren, Pico)\n- Provides detailed benchmarks showing execution and proof generation performance\n- Analyzes the efficiency gains from specialized precompiles vs. standard implementations\n\nKey findings show dramatic performance improvements (up to 27.6x faster execution and 7x faster proof generation) when using specialized precompiles.\n\n## Research Goals\n\nThis repository serves several research objectives:\n\n1. **Architecture Analysis**: Understanding how RISC-V performs in blockchain contexts\n2. **Performance Optimization**: Identifying bottlenecks and optimization opportunities\n3. **Standardization**: Working toward more standardized approaches for RISC-V in blockchain applications\n4. **zkVM Efficiency**: Documenting and improving the efficiency of Zero-Knowledge proof generation on RISC-V\n\n## Contribution\n\nThis is an ongoing research project. Findings, benchmarks, and analysis will be updated as research progresses.","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Feth-act%2Friscv-compilation","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Feth-act%2Friscv-compilation","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Feth-act%2Friscv-compilation/lists"}
