I’m not on gentoo. I’m on a debian image 69 sdcard /boot with a fedora 38 rootfs on my nvme as /.
I haven’t upgraded to the newer march debian image/firmware.
I did a dnf upgrade this morning.
As mentioned here: Safe CFLAGS - Gentoo Wiki

That gave me nothing.
Yeah so I imagine the rv64 stuff for fedora 38 gcc 13 is tuned to hifive unmatched.

Yes, it would be preferrable to see these kinds of benchmark tools become a package within the default vf2 debian repo and possibly within the fedora 38 vf2 repos if such a thing will ever exist.
