By the way, does the community has the plan to support heterogeneous
architecture cpus in one soc?
Yes.
Hi Richard,
It's a good news. Thanks.
If so, maybe we have to do this qom cast somewhere.
No, I don't think so. Or at least not in these places.
Yes. Perhaps, we should remove all RISCV_CPU macros using after the qom
objects realized.
Do you think we should remove the RISCV_CPU using in
riscv_cpu_exec_interrupt? Although it is not so hot. I think there is
no reason to use it there.
Except this, there are many other places in hw/ and target/riscv using
the RISCV_CPU macro.
If we know whether we should remove the RISCV_CPU macro use in these
places, we can do it in another patch.
Thanks,
Zhiwei
