See MIPS run
The versatile offspring of an extended family of multiple chip companies, today's MIPS chips are everywhere. They power everything from video games, network routers, laser printers, and set-top boxes, to high-performance workstations. This book brings together this extraordinary proliferation of form and functionality, offering embedded systems programmers and designers unique, eminently practical insights into MIPS. It covers how MIPS started, the principles at the root of the RISC revolution, the full details of the MIPS instruction set, and how these details together constitute a full operating system ready to be put to work in hundreds of ways.

What Hacker News says
- Check this "See MIPS Run" book on porting Linux to MIPS [1]. Since MIPS has becomes RISC-V, it will be an excellent reference to Linux on RISC-V platform [2].

For mips there is an excellent book called 'see mips run' by dominic-sweetman. you might find it to be quite instructive...
- Don't start with the x86 or -64 architecture; there's a lot of cruft in there due to backwards compatibility. Start with a simpler architecture like MIPS (see e.g., Sweetman's "See MIPS Run" for an introduction), or the old 6800 chips (few extant examples in the wild not attached to old Macs -- unless you are willing to pay exorbitant prices because you're maintaining an old weapons system -- but there are some wonderful out-of-print textbooks that are great reads).
- MIPS is a really fun assembly language to learn IMO. I liked the book See MIPS Run by Dominic Sweetman.
- I love MIPS. I think it's an absolutely beautiful architecture. I used write MIPS code on my Play Station 2 with Linux dev kit for fun.
If you want to know more about the MIPS architecture I highly recommend "See MIPS Run" by Dominic Sweetman:
