Support development & testing on ARM64 #2106

Closed andrey-dubnik closed 3 weeks ago

andrey-dubnik commented 3 weeks ago

Hi,

I've been going through the setup on Mac ARM64 and have hit few issues around container images used in the env bootstrap and Tests not built for ARM/multi-arch.

In order to get x86 working on Mac ARM CPU I needed to use Rosetta which needs VZ in oppose to QUEMU. Unfortunately when it comes to using VZ I have hit a likely bug with lima (I'm using Rancher Desktop) matching the description of colima issue which prevented kind from communicating with a Host DNS service. So I have reverted back to QUEMU and partial testing so I could install all the required components.

Following services were not available for ARM (can be more):

Another issue was with k8s version being v1.24.15, it failed to boot for x86 and ARM for me also it didn't seem to differentiate between the arch so I have switched to v1.28.9 version which did the job.

Can you please consider adding following?

  1. building the multi-arch or ARM specific test images
  2. bump up the k8s version if possible to at least 1.28

building the multi-arch or ARM specific test images

We don't want the additional maintenance overhead of supporting multi-arch images, as we only host our own images under infinispan-test to avoid issues with the docker rate limiter.

As a workaround, I have created a PR which allows all of the images to be specified via Env variables so you can use those provided by docker hub.

bump up the k8s version if possible to at least 1.28

Unfortunately we can't do this as we need to test against older K8s versions that we still support. I can make this configurable via an Env variable.

Please see https://github.com/infinispan/infinispan-operator/pull/2109 and let me know if that's sufficient for your needs.

Thanks! That will suffice.
