Question for both of you: What would it take for the MRISC32 CPU to use FuryGPU as a peripheral over PCIe?

If the FPGA contains a hard PCIe IP that can act as a host and the proper transceivers and the CPU implemented all of the necessary things to interface with it, it'd be about as difficult as writing a driver for any other machine. Actually building a board for the FPGA with all of the required power supplies, peripherals, and a PCIe host is not a trivial undertaking however, and an FPGA with a hard PCIe controller generally isn't cheap!

It would be much simpler to just put the FuryGPU and the MRISC32 CPU on the same FPGA, I guess.
