Sounds like this should be an unsafe function, because of all the human-checked prerequisites.

I updated the mecall-backend export code so it now makes sure that the mepc register is not neglected. In this way, users can now call pend safely outside and inside interrupt handlers.

I think the mecall version should be built in CI. I'd like to see an RP235x example too and I'll try and look at that when I have time. |

Will do! I have bought a couple of RP Pico 2 boards, so I will also do some on-board tests |

I need to fine-tune the CI. Nonetheless, both CLINT and MECALL backends work as expected |

This backend triggers
MachineEnvCallexceptions to obtain the desired behavior.The
examples/ecall.rsworks following this approach. I still want to make sure that there are no soundness issues before merging this PR. I also use the new approach I'm developing for the RISC-V ecosystem, so it is better to wait until all these changes are published to crates.io.If this approach works, then any RISC-V target will be compatible with
riscv-slic, regardless of having CLINT or another software interrupt peripheral 😁
