Raspberry Pi running Debian 11 with kernel 5.10.0-23-arm64 - 3rdparty/asio-ipfs - Unsupported host architecture aarch64

[blackmennewstyle]

I'm trying to build beam on a Raspberry Pi 4 running Debian 11 with kernel 5.10.0-23-arm64. But a 3rd party library seems to have issue with aarch64

cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release . && make -j2

OK. I got it to work. I needed to modify these files: vim ~/beam/CMakeCache.txt

//Build wallet with IPFS support
BEAM_IPFS_SUPPORT:BOOL=OFF

vim ~/beam/CMakeLists.txt

        if(APPLE_M1)
            set(CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS "${CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS} -mcpu=apple-m1")
        else()
            if(ARCH_NATIVE)
                set(CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS "${CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS} -march=native")
            else()
                set(CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS "${CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS} -march=native")

vim ~/beam/3rdparty/re2/CMakeLists.txt

    if(APPLE_M1)
      set(CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS "${CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS} -mcpu=apple-m1")
    else()
      if(ARCH_NATIVE)
        set(CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS "${CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS} -march=native")
      else()
        set(CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS "${CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS} -march=native")

The you can proceed with a complete build: cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release . && make -j2

It will take a while but at the end you will get beam-node, beam-wallet, wallet-api and explorer-node all built :fire: :rocket:

Hi, Recently, I also experimented with aarch64 https://github.com/BeamMW/beam/tree/linux_arm64_build and here are builds on github https://github.com/BeamMW/beam/actions/runs/5797278196

Thank you for your answer, i actually managed to build everything using the steps i described previously lol It's interesting to know that there is also a branch for arm64 lol
