We already use 

    https://drone.io/github.com/karelzak/util-linux

and

    https://travis-ci.org/karelzak/util-linux

both connected to github, but for ppc64 and s390 I use machines in Red
Hat labs and during -rc1 I usually use Coverity analyzer.

It's also possible to use Fedora/Suse build farms, but we don't
execute all the tests (especially tests where is necessary root perms)
by default. 

Anyway, this is no problem, the problem is real life testing.
Fortunately, I can push unstable stuff to Fedora Rawhide :)
