Windows ARM64 self-hosted runner support. #33

Closed jeremyd2019 closed 3 years ago

jeremyd2019 commented 3 years ago

Workflow improvements to support a self-hosted runner on Windows ARM64. The biggest issue is that the currently released versions of Windows on ARM64 do not support x64 emulation, only x86.

The support for Windows ARM64 self-hosted runners is actions/runner#785
I opened actions/runner#1185. It would be nice to be able to check ${{ runner.arch }} instead of seeing what the name starts with.
Using my fork of setup-msys2 is probably a non-starter. I have removed that hunk from the pull request, and replaced with a comment explaining that what's there won't actually work.

I have not checked what effect having a clangarm64 build-type in the JOB_META array would be while clangarm64 is in MANUAL_BUILD_TYPE.

yeah.. the rest looks fine to me.

I have to say, I was surprised by how "easy"/non-invasive this was. Nice when it works out that way

cool, it doesn't appear to have tried to fire up a clangarm64 job. 😌

A couple of runs on my self-hosted runner have failed due to a timeout downloading packages in pacman as part of the setup-msys2 action, and for the ones that succeeded uploading the package cache to github's cache service failed with a 503 error (but that didn't fail the workflow)
