Re:AMD ships microcode update to disable some branch prediction by worblux on Sunday January 14, 2018 @05:56PM (#16147024)
RISC V is certainly not vulnerable to Spectere as all the the real-world chips are in-order execution, meaning post-branch instruction never happen until after the branch is decided.

Out of order variants are still in the design stage, so they may come up with a way to isolate or invalidate speculation effects on branch misprediction.
