I don't know what the specifics of getting new runners > set up is, though. Alex ? So the first thing is can we have a minicloud VM dedicated to CI 24/7? Our current usage of the GitLab CI model relies on the runner always running on the host rather than being spun up on demand. After that you need to extend: scripts/ci/setup/build-environment.yml scripts/ci/setup/gitlab-runner.yml to setup a ppc64 host and setup the gitlab runner on it. We document this at: https://qemu.readthedocs.io/en/latest/devel/ci.html#machine-setup-howto After that we can define a new variable in the GitLab config (PPC64_RUNNER_AVAILABLE) and then define some custom build jobs in: .gitlab-ci.d/custom-runners/ to run the build and test on the native ppc64 HW. It looks like your branch has most of this stuff already but I couldn't see any successful runs. I think this is tripped up by our switch to not trigger CI by default.
