Hi Vineet,

did you see my PR for improved testing capabilities for the
riscv-gnu-toolchain repo:
  https://github.com/riscv-collab/riscv-gnu-toolchain/pull/1139

Among the changes is support for testing glibc.
Tests run very long and produce incredibly much output (triggers an
out-of-memory of tmux on my 32GiB machine).
Executed everything on a Fedora machine.

BR
Christoph
