+# Buildomat illumos CI
+
+This directory contains CI configurations for the [illumos] operating system.
+Tokio's illumos CI jobs are run using [Buildomat], a CI system developed by
+Oxide Computer, which supports illumos. See [the Buildomat README] for more
+details.
+
+## illumos-Specific CI Failures
+
+If your pull request's CI build fails on illumos, and you aren't able to easily
+reproduce the failure on other operating systems, don't worry! The
+[tokio-rs/illumos] team is responsible for maintaining Tokio's illumos support,
+and can be called on to assist contributors with illumos-specific issues. Please
+feel free to tag @tokio-rs/illumos to ask for help resolving build failures on
+illumos
