RISC-V CI for memcached

[Ali Tariq]

I have seen the status of memcached in the RISC-V software ecosystem sheet as "In-progress" for RISC-V. I am assuming that this is not yet fully supported for RISC-V. Also the CI for Memcached is running on github actions as I have seen in the commit status.

I would like to inform you that there is a RISC-V CI platform called Cloud-V (created in collaboration with RISC-V Labs subgroup) which provides emulated and physical hardware for RISC-V software development. You can apply for access at this link.

I actually bought a risc-v board and will be setting it up sometime soon.

I'm pretty sure memcached actually works just fine on risc-v: the problem is these systems people are running the test suite on are so pathologically slow they are exposing timing bugs in the tests. I haven't seen an actual bug that needs to be fixed so far.

I can set up free CI for testing Memcached on various RISC-V boards or on QEMU user mode/QEMU system (which are faster than the boards because of faster host machines) using Cloud-V.

All I need is an access token to GitHub.
