This should be made "sticky", if there was this feature @HN. Strange that ci.debian.net didn't catch this.

As far as I can tell, ci.debian.net doesn't support any of the ARM architectures and does not test suites other than testing and unstable:

Also, I think something like LAVA is more suited to kernel/bootloader testing than debci:

What % of HN users use an ARM SBC with Debian?

I'm sure it's small, but at least a few of us are here. Also worth noting is that (most) Raspberry Pi (an ARM SBC) users are indirectly Debian users too. (and I'm a Pi user as well)

My BeagleBone Black runs a Debian-based distro (Angstrom), and there are spins based on Debian proper, Ubuntu, etc. So it’s definitely good to know.

The BBB doesn't use an upstream kernel though as far as I can tell.

Not Debian directly but one of their derivative: Armbian, they have great support for Allwinner SoC and it's easy to build your own image.
