Update README.md with Genesys 2 disclaimer #92

Closed jquevremont closed 8 months ago

jquevremont commented 8 months ago

As of now, only the Genesys 2 board is described in the SDK. This disclaimer is added to better inform the users.

@DBees, can you review and merge if OK? This relates to issue #1803.

@jquevremont I just want to ensure we use the term "support" in the sense we mean. You wrote, "As of now, only the Digilent Genesys 2 is supported. You will need to adapt the SDK to different boards. To add more board support in this repository, you can volunteer to create a new project at the OpenHW Group."

This can be read two ways. One way could imply that users of Genesys 2 will receive a certain level of support from the OpenHW community. That may be true in a casual sense but I am not aware of a support model for CVA6 SDK, I am under the impression that Thales does not have a resource on this task for instance.

To avoid that implication maybe better to say "As of now, the SDK has been designed and tested for the Digilent Genesys 2 FPGA board. To implement and test SDK for other boards in this repository, you can volunteer to create and drive a new project at the OpenHW Group."

Thanks @DBees for the remark and the proposed wording.
