I tried 1/, spend more than 2h to read a translated version of the EULA,
succeeded at the SMS verification, but then when I tried to log in to
search for boards my account got banned with no explanation. This
doesn't seem easy to use outside of China, so I guess we're back on 2/.
Cc'ing other QEMU Loongson contributors in case they might give us ideas
about how to add this arch into our CI.
It does seem like a good idea to have some sort of testing in place.
Perhaps build upon debian-hexagon-cross.docker to set up a cross-build
environment for loongarch. Add just enough more that it's good for a
full cross-build of qemu (glib and pixman?).
Like the hexagon docker image, the build time would be substantial, so
we'd push a golden copy to the qemu-project repo.
