I think the next experiment I will do is try to port the baremetal tests to
something I can load at `0x8000_0000`
## 2024-08-26
I implemented a new bootrom as the original large bootrom is not initializing
the UART. This causes baremetal tests to fail until someone properly initializes
the UART (namely, OpenSBI). The new bootrom, named RBOOTROM, initializes the
UART and prints an initial message. It also sets a machine mode trap to catch
potential errors:
$ picocom -qb 115200 $FPGACTL_UART
RBOOTROM v1.0 :^)
Jumping to 0x8000_0000...
While the bitstream with the potential fixes for the supervisor interrupts is
not available, I'll try to automate the testing by creating a pipeline that
automatically runs the tests in an FPGA.
