Ideally any test should provide a clear pass or fail indication. In the case of RISC-V processor DV this is achieved with a comparison against a quality reference model.
STING helps generate portable, architecturally correct and self-checking tests targeted at the corner-case scenarios by automating the comparison of the DUT against the Imperas reference model results.

Flexibility within a framework of compatibility is the essential foundation of the RISC-V ISA.
The RISC-V P extension defines a rich set of integer SIMD/DSP instructions operating on existing integer registers to support complex data processing within the constraints of real-time applications. However, the hardware specification is just the start - adoption and success depend on the software ecosystem, which is supported with the reference models and test suites from Imperas.
