riscv64 is not yet used in HPC, but work on that is ongoing.[1] [1] https://www.researchgate.net/publication/405221610_Monte_Cimone_v3_Where_RISC-V_Stands_in_High-Performance_Computing
Hi Adrian and riscv64 porters, The R language has some imporance in scientific computing performed on HPC clusters, and I think that our autopktests have uncovered a serious issue between the language and the architecture, which I worry might be release-critical. I have summarised the issue on https://wiki.debian.org/R/riscv64 (thanks to the original input from Aurélien Jarno) and I want to contact the core R developers (who do not yet support that architecture formally), but before that I wanted to be totally confident in what I wrote, and I asked for proofreading on the riscv porters mailing list, three times. Unfortunately, I had no answer… I do not want to open now a full discussion on what to do in Debian for Forky, but I would be relieved and grateful if I could have another pair of eyes checking https://wiki.debian.org/R/riscv64 before it reaches outside Debian circles.
