Speaking for myself, I think it would be nice, but I would prioritize
investing in what it takes to get faster feedback from qa.guix for the
already-established architectures (for example, it seems qa.guix is
short on x86_64 hardware.)

RISC-V builds and substitutes

2023-11-30 Thread Christopher Baines
Hey,

I have a RISC-V board that is hooked up to the bordeaux build farm, and
there is another board connected, although there's some issues with the
connection/agent.

1 to 2 boards though isn't enough to get good substitute availability
and build packages for patches and branches though.

There's now HiFive Unmatched Rev B boards available [1], so is there
interest in buying additional boards for the project so that we can
improve substitute availability and get QA doing RISC-V things?
