Qualcomm's v8 License, Cancelled by Arm!
Here we go again. In the fighting between Qualcomm and Arm, and the first lawsuit set to go to trial in December, today throws up another curveball. The architecture license that Qualcomm is using to build its next generation Snapdragon smartphone cores on is under threat. Arm has cancelled that license, stating breach of contract, and Qualcomm has 60 days before it takes effect. This is happening during Qualcomm's Tech Summit in Hawaii, but also during RISC-V Summit, Arm's biggest potential competitor.
