What is exactly > the problem that as hobbyist I can, but NXP cannot? There are also difference configs. I think 'kernel test robot' is very good tools. If there are guide to mirror it, we can try. It is not neccesary to duplicate to develop a build test infrastrue. The issue is not that run build test. The key problem is how to know a protential problem will be exist, and limited a build/config scrope. Even I have risc\ppc\x86_64 built before I submmit patch, still can't capture build error if I missed just one platform mc6800. For `readq` error also depend on the configs. Actually, we major focus on test edmav1, .... v5 at difference platforms before submit patches. > > Best regards, > Krzysztof >
