Here is what I get:


OpenSBI v0.8-29-g7701ea1
   ____                    _____ ____ _____
  / __ \                  / ____|  _ \_   _|
 | |  | |_ __   ___ _ __ | (___ | |_) || |

  \____/| .__/ \___|_| |_|_____/|____/_____|
        | |
        |_|

Platform Name       : Kendryte K210
Platform Features   : timer
Platform HART Count : 2
Boot HART ID        : 0
Boot HART ISA       : rv64fucicacsidc
BOOT HART Features  : none
BOOT HART PMP Count : 0
BOOT HART MHPM Count: 0
Firmware Base       : 0x80000000
Firmware Size       : 96 KB
Runtime SBI Version : 0.2

MIDELEG : 0x0000000000000222
MEDELEG : 0x0000000000000109

So different fuzziness for the MISA string, wrong too.
And no prints from the test payload either, so definitely wrong.

However, I am getting warnings on the DTS. Something wrong there that may
impact the serial. Looking into it.
