LoongArch is cool and based, but I take issue with the phrase “isn’t related to MIPS”. LoongArch is a massive advancement, but MIPS is very much in the DNA of the architecture. This post by one of the very prominent people in the LoongArch community does a very good job illustrating the differences and many many similarities.
Maybe “isn’t related to MIPS” was a bad way to word it, woops. I meant it as in it’s their own ISA that doesn’t require a license from MIPS Technologies/Imagination/whoever owns the rights to MIPS these days, wasn’t denouncing it’s similarities to MIPS. Even the Loongson kernel developers themselves said “LoongArch is a new RISC ISA, which is a bit like MIPS or RISC-V”. Sorry for the confusion to anyone who made have read my earlier post!
