The following document describes how `lbmk` works, and how you can make changes
to it: [libreboot maintenance manual](../maintain/)
MIPS cross compiler
===================
Libreboot has support for the Sony PlayStation (PS1/PSX), based on
the PCSX-Redux Open BIOS. If you're doing a full release build, and/or
specifically building the PSX BIOS, you need a MIPS cross compiler.
Arch-based systems have a mipsel cross compiler available from AUR, and most
Debian-based systems have a mipsel cross compiler in apt; for these, the normal
dependencies installation command will provide them. We know Void Linux and
Fedora don't have a MIPS compiler, for instance.
If your distro doesn't have the MIPS compiler available,
the [PlayStation](../install/playstation.md) page provides instructions for
manual installation; please do this in addition to the normal dependencies.
Multi-threaded builds
=====================

Release status

MIPS cross compiler
===================
Information about status will be reported during builds; if a board is
marked as stable, the build proceeds without further input. If the board is
marked anything other, a warning appears asking if you wish to proceed; to
disable these warnings, do this before building (not recommended):

Fedora don't have a MIPS compiler, for instance.
In Libreboot, we specify: `stable`, `unstable`, `broken` or `untested`.
The "unstable" marking means that the board boots mostly/entirely reliably
annd should be safe to use, but may have a few issues, but nothing which would,
for example, cause safety issues e.g. thermal, data reliability etc.
The `broken` setting means that a given board will likely brick if flashed.
The `untested` setting means untested.
Release status is always set with regards to the current lbmk revision, on
the theory that the current revision is being used to generate a full release.
The setting is decided on a board-by-board basis, taking its various quirks
and idiosynrasies into account.
If your distro doesn't have the MIPS compiler available,
the [PlayStation](../install/playstation.md) page provides instructions for
manual installation; please do this in addition to the normal dependencies.
