Both tianocore and altera upstream repos use ubuntu-latest as one of their CI runners and install native/cross platform compilers. There is also a long list of package deps:

sudo apt install gcc g++ make uuid-dev nasm nuget iasl \
  gcc-multilib-arm-linux-gnueabihf g++-multilib-arm-linux-gnueabihf \
  nodejs curl lcov libx11-dev libxext-dev python3-distutils-extra \
  python3-pip python3-setuptools npm

Install the snap with dotnet-runtime-60:

$ sudo snap install dotnet-runtime-60

Then set the "newer-than-4.8" cross-compile triplet:

$ export GCC5_ARM_PREFIX="arm-linux-gnueabihf-"
