"Today, with over 500 design wins and our customers shipping more than 10 billion SiFive-based cores, SiFive has proven-in-silicon quality that customers can rely on."
"SiFive’s 3rd Generation of Performance CPU IP, the P870-D, is up and running in customer silicon and is designed to be highly competitive with the ARM Neoverse N2 class in the data center."
Has SiFive had a public design win anywhere? Not talking about StarFive or other RV users, but SiFive itself. Just seems like someone giving Yunsup and Krste some cash to hang out and publish CHISEL specs for yet another cache coherency protocol. (Though... I am confident they can design a very good serdes implementation and distributed cache.)
Apologies, I responded in the wrong place so see my other comment. Here is the most relavent bit...

Sounds like just a bit more than CHISEL specs. Perhaps people are tripping over themselves to give SiFive $400 million for a reason.
