Not sure it's very important, but I've got a so-called PostgreSQL buildfarm animal (continuous testing host) going for a while[1], which has been at least somewhat green, after having the PostgreSQL build and test suite failures fixed[2-5].

Re: Fosdem'26 talk
Hi: about SMP, i add some details SMP - Almudena Garcia: Initial code, with cpu detection, enumeration and basic cpus startup - a lot of fixes from Damien Zammit: concurrency fixes, errata fixes, and performance improving. - system translators for now on CPU0 for thread-safety. Some functional attempts with all cpus, but unstable (crash after a time) - other processes can go fine on other cpus - and 64b port by Damien Zammit El vie, 30 ene 2026 a las 20:47, escribió: > January 30, 2026 at 2:46 AM, "Samuel Thibault" mailto:[email protected] > ?to=%22Samuel%20Thibault%22%20%3Csamuel.thibault%40gnu.org%3E > wrote: > > > > > > > Guy Fleury, le ven. 30 janv. 2026 06:32:47 +0200, a ecrit: > > > > > > > > Me and you in move libpthread-in-libc Not Etienne i think > > > > > Oh, right, sorry! > > > > Samuel > > Feel free to ignore this email, since may of the projects are not wholly > ready. > > You could mention the latest mesa stuff. > > Damien working on updating java. > > Damien on getting 64 SMP compilation. > > Our new CI.

You could mention the latest mesa stuff. Damien working on updating java. Damien on getting 64 SMP compilation. Our new CI. Perhaps mention that Damien got qemu to work on the Hurd. Should we mention the Arm port ? Maybe we could encourage someone to tidy up the arm port so that we could reliably run it on qemu. You may mention my hurdos.com/wiki, if others find it useful. When you mention Guix Hurd, it would be pretty cool to link to the blog post that shows that you can run Guix Hurd on real hardware: https://guix.gnu.org/en/blog/2024/hurd-on-thinkpad/
