The linux-ppc64le buildlets run on PPC64 VMs at osuosl.org (OSU Open Source Lab).

They run Debian jessie.

Machines:

go-le-1: debian@140.211.168.23
go-le-2: debian@140.211.168.18
go-le-3: debian@140.211.168.180
go-le-4: debian@140.211.168.161
go-le-5: debian@140.211.168.162

They accept ssh key 'id_ed25519_golang1'. For example,

     ssh -i ~/.ssh/id_ed25519_golang1 debian@140.211.168.23
     (key from http://go/go-builders-ssh)

Each was once configured by scping setup.bash to them, logging in to
each, and running:

$ sudo ./setup.bash <BUILDKEY_HERE>

TODO: these should be updated like linux-arm and linux-arm64 to use Docker
      per build. That is https://golang.org/issue/21189
