Tenstrorrent Posts GCC Compiler Patches For Ascalon XG Core Written by Michael Larabel in GNU on 12 August 2026 at 04:14 PM EDT. Add A Comment While the Tenstorrent Ascalon X is known as their high performance out-of-order RISC-V RVA23 CPU core for extreme performance over the H and S models, a new GNU Compiler Collection (GCC) patch today from Tenstorrent makes known a new Ascalon XG core. This patch arriving on the GCC mailing list is the first time I've seen or heard of Ascalon XG and apparently a first for Google Search too.

This patch arriving on the GCC mailing list is the first time I've seen or heard of Ascalon XG and apparently a first for Google Search too. This is a new variant of Ascalon X and Tenstorrent engineers are working on getting the RISC-V CPU core support ready for upstreaming into the open-source GCC compiler. RISC-V's zvkng is a set of vector cryptographic extensions.
