Use of the RISC-V instruction set only in a Open-source FPGA design (license question)
I have started to create a VHDL design for new architecture. Now I'm thinking about the used instruction set. Could create an own encoding of the used machine code, but must create a C compiler for it or port the architecture to an existing compiler like GCC. Also must write an assembler, if I use an own instruction set.
What are the license requirements for me as developer, when I want use any specific parts of the RISC-V instruction set only? Would also to add some specific processor control registers and a modified base architecture. Might be security by obscurity, but control registers where I can setup the end of the stack and the size in privileged mode. Also two types of the stack. Return address and data, both separately as example.
BTW: The project is currently for the purpose of education only. Without interest from me to sell this maybe exotic (not RISC-V itself, but my modifications) architecture.

A project of our size needs at least a few hundred million dollars per year to keep going,” Mr. Durov wrote in his public channel on Telegram late last year. “While doing that, we will remain independent and stay true to our values, redefining how a tech company should operate.
