https://git.linaro.org/people/peter.maydell/misc-scripts.git and notably the remake-merge-builds script, which describes the configs I build on my x86-64 box. I also build on OSX and on a 32-bit ARM system. (This is all behind the local firewall and I'm afraid I can't provide access to other people.) The major thing is that buildbots which build for native x86-64 are almost useless, because everybody tests on that anyway. Useful buildbots need to be building for the obscure cases: * OSX * 32-bit systems * ARM, PPC and other non-standard host architectures * clang * Windows * linux-user only and static-only builds Unfortunately this implies maintaining an awkward build farm full of devboards and other fragile hardware. -- PMM
