Could we add RISC-V 64-bit (riscv64) buildslave to GDB BuildBot？

Could we add RISC-V 64-bit (riscv64) buildslave to GDB BuildBot？

[Bo YU via Gdb]

Hi,

When I was looking at some GDB patches, I was surprised to find that
the GDB buildbot[0] did not support riscv64. Do you know if we have a
plan to add this?

I would be very interested in contributing a riscv64 buildslave to the
project with help of plctlab[1]. I have read the project wiki[2] and
understand that as the contributor, I would be responsible for
maintaining the builder and investigating its issues.

Thanks for your help!

BR,
Bo

We don't have a riscv buildbot for gdb, but not one that sents results
to the gdb-testers mailinglist. The results are in bunsen though:
https://builder.sourceware.org/buildbot/#/builders/gdb-riscv-full
https://builder.sourceware.org/buildbot/#/builders/gdb-ubuntu-riscv
https://builder.sourceware.org/testruns/?has_keyvalue_op=glob&has_keyvalue_k=testrun.gitdescribe&has_keyvalue_v=buildbot/gdb%2Ariscv%2A

I am afraid the wiki page is really out of date.
It probably should just point to https://builder.sourceware.org/
More builders would certainly be appreciated.
See https://sourceware.org/cgit/builder/tree/README_workers for how to add one.

Ah, it is great, I missed these riscv64 builders info, thanks for the pointer.
