U Extension
- Implemented Version

1.12.0
Parameters
This extension has the following implementation options:
- MUTABLE_MISA_U
- TRAP_ON_ECALL_FROM_U
-
Whether or not an ECALL-from-U-mode causes a synchronous exception.
The spec states that implementations may handle ECALLs transparently without raising a trap, in which case the EEI must provide a builtin.

Set of XLENs supported in U-mode. Can be one of:
-
32: SXLEN is always 32
-
64: SXLEN is always 64
-
3264: SXLEN can be changed (via mstatus.UXL) between 32 and 64
-
- U_MODE_ENDIANESS
-
Endianess of data in U-mode. Can be one of:
-
little: M-mode data is always little endian
-
