Sourceware GNU Toolchain Infrastructure and beyond

Speaker(s): Mark Wielaard, Frank Eigler

The Sourceware infrastructure is continually improving. Just like our
other services, such as bugzilla, mailinglists and git repos, we like
to provide zero maintenance infrastructure for tracking and automation
of patches, testing and analyzing testresults. This BoF is for
everybody who likes to discuss (and wants to help with) automating the
infrastructure to make contributing to our projects more fun and more
productive.

Topics to discuss include the shared buildbot [1]. Whether we need
more/other arches/distro support. Which builders are most beneficial
to projects. How buildbot should report issues. Whether to use the
buildbot to automate other tasks like updating documentation,
websites, generate release tars or updating bugzilla. How to use git
user try branches. Taking advantage of the Bunsen [2] testrun cluster
analysis, per-testrun testcase search/browse engines, search
operators, testsuite summary (vs detail) grids. Patch tracking using
patchwork [3] integrated with buildbot and the CICD trybot [4]. How to
use the sourcehut mirror [5]. And anything else that would make you
more productive and happy contributing.
