Self link: go/cros-borealis
The Borealis project provides first-party support for gaming on CrOS devices using the Steam platform, developed by Valve. Steam is a cross-platform content delivery service specialising in games and game-related technologies (benchmarks, engines, etc).
For more info, and team contacts, see go/borealis.
The Chrome OS CQ only runs PRESUBMIT.cfg for this repository; it doesn‘t go through the full CQ. Don’t put code in here that is built by an ebuild (src/platform2/vm_tools might be more appropriate) as it will not be tested.
The Borealis Docker image is built regularly and uprevved with PUpr into the borealis-dlc ebuild, which is then tested by CQ builders for Borealis-capable boards.
See go/steam-shield for links to the rootfs builder, the PUpr generator, and borealis-cq.
