ARM Linux release builds
We are disabling builds that are failing due to cross-compiling openssl for ARM:
https://github.com/fermyon/spin/runs/5759249651
I think we can fix that by merging #247 and using --features=vendored-openssl for cross-compiled builds only. In order for this to work I think we need to remove --all-features from various places as well.
@lann is there an ETA for when you will be starting re-producing Arm builds? Not putting pressure, just curious. Thanks.
I spent a little time looking into this today, but even with the above openssl vendoring and using cross I hit some pretty nasty-looking bugs cross-compiling wasmtime-fiber. I would be interested to hear if anyone is able to get this working by compiling on a native (or emulated) ARM box.
Is there an update on this? I see Spin ships for linux/amd64, windows/amd64, mac/amd64, mac/arm. Looks like linux/arm is the only miss (with the big trend towards more arm in the cloud it looks like a good opportunity for Spin).
No update yet. Currently the release builds are really more geared toward development environments where ARM Linux is less common. That said, this is mostly blocked on finding a good way to actually perform the cross-arch builds in Github Actions. For some reason cross-compiling for aarch64-apple-darwin "just works" where aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu doesn't.
$ cargo build --release --target aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu --features openssl/vendored

Thanks @lann. Out of curiosity I was trying to compile Spin on a Graviton instance but I ended up in a rat-hole where one of the requirements (i.e. bindle) is not available on Linux/Arm either and trying to compile bindle gave me a problem etc. etc.
