I had tried something similar, but with Github actions

https://github.com/a3f/barebox/actions/runs/740206381

I didn't have the time to pursue this further. I am fine
with Gitlab as well.

Here's how it looks for Github actions with emulate.pl:

Ye. IIRC Sascha disables these for his build tests..? Would be nice to get
those resolved sometime.

Could we just fetch them from the correct location? That way we could
just provide the prebuilt binaries for download. But for a first step,
fakes are fine.

Nice.

My GA script supports openrisc. Perhaps Jules is interested in getting
CI working for kvx as well once we have the infrastructure in place?

Here is the Github action config for the tests:
https://github.com/a3f/barebox/blob/emulate.pl/.github/workflows/vm-tests.yaml

Any thoughts on how/if to integrate with the mailing list?

Cheers,
Ahmad
