Any progress? +1 for ARM support
Ref #254
Hi @mrbluecoat, unfortunately there is currently no active maintainer of the Polycube project, hence no plan to work on the support for ARM. If you want to contribute please feel free to submit a PR.
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Running both baremetal
polycubed
as well as Docker-based should be possibleDescribe the solution you'd like
Arm-based systems are becoming ubiquitous - from single board computers to Arm-based servers on Cloud Compute platforms. Polycube should be easy to compile and run. Or, even be available in pre-built packages.
Describe alternatives you've considered
After a lot of tinkering and rebuilding, I was able to get polycubed and polycubectl to compile and link. However, that's where things stop working. Running
polycubed -d
results in a hung process that consumes one core, 100%.Additional context
