The cfarm compile farm maintains machines of various architectures and provides SSH access to free software developers, GCC and others (GPL, BSD, MIT, ...).
Once your account application is approved (see the Request an account page), you get full SSH access to all the farm machines, current and future.
For more information about usage, see the wiki page of the project.
The transition to our new cfarm.net
domain is complete. All machines are now referred to as cfarmXX
, or cfarmXX.cfarm.net
. The old naming convention and domain (gccXX
and gccXX.fsffrance.org
) are obsolete and should not be used.
The website formerly at cfarm.tetaneutral.net is now available (with redirects) at portal.cfarm.net, and a new landing page for the project, complete with documentation, will soon be available directly at cfarm.net
. This is still in progress.
DNS records for fsffrance.org
will no longer be updated, and new machines will only be added under the cfarm.net
domain.
The Compile Farm project is pleased to announce the immediate availability of cfarm240
, an Arm Morello SoC prototype board running CheriBSD (a FreeBSD derivative).
This system-on-chip research platform features a custom quad-core aarch64 Neoverse N1-based CPU implementing CHERI (a memory protection model), and has 32GB system memory. Disk space is limited (~200GB); please be mindful of your resource usage.
We are still in the process of transitioning to our new domain name and website; please SSH to cfarm240.cfarm.net
.
Notes:
Thank you to the University of Cambridge for hosting (and developing) this machine!
The Compile Farm project is happy to announce two new sparc64 LDOMs, each with 32 dedicated threads, 32GB memory, and 1.5TB of disk. They are hosted on a SPARC T4-2 server.
One runs Debian on Linux 6.3, and the other runs Oracle Solaris 11.4.
The Linux system, cfarm105
, replaces
(a SPARC T3-2* that suffered from irreparable hardware problems and is being removed from its data center today). All user accounts and data have been migrated.gcc102
The Solaris system, cfarm106
, is the Farm's first Solaris 11.4 machine and we hope it will prove interesting and useful. It has been set up with a substantial number of Oracle-provided developer tools, including Rust 1.61, LLVM 14, and GCC 12. The OpenCSW package manager has been installed as well.
We are in the process of transitioning to our own domain name, cfarm.net
, online now at:
ssh -p 2202 cfarm105.cfarm.net
(Linux)ssh -p 2203 cfarm106.cfarm.net
(Solaris)An announcement with details about our new domain, website, and other project-related matters will be made soon. Please consider switching to cfarmNNN.cfarm.net
from gccNNN.fsffrance.org
for all machines as soon as possible. The "old" subdomains will continue to work but may not be updated.
These sparc64 systems are donated, hosted, and managed by Adélie Linux.
Thanks to ylibc.org for hosting
for the last 3 years.gcc102
* Compared to the T3 (in-order execution), the T4 (out-of-order) has much better single-threaded performance.
