RISC-V fans will be interested in this one. felix86 has been announced as a new project with a first release available that enables you to run x86-64 Linux programs on RISC-V processors on Linux.
Impressive. I would imagine it is very difficult to get native performance without ISA extensions like Apple had to do for TSO and other awkward x86isms.
I would guess someone will make a RISC-V extension for that stuff eventually, though I haven’t seen anyone propose one yet.
