This PR adds an arm64 CPU architecture variant of the Linux build as a release target in addition to the existing amd64 (x86_64) Linux build.
Currently, unlike
tbls-build
, the release builds of thetbls
program for macOS are available for both the amd64 and arm64 architectures to support both Intel CPU and Apple CPU, but the release builds for Linux OSes are only available for the amd64 architecture.There are a couple of use cases where the arm64 arch Linux release of the
tbls
program is valuable:tbls
in a Linux OS container on an Apple CPU macOS machines without resorting to compatibility mode (enabling emulation of the linux/amd64 platform), which could hurt performance and development productivity.InstallingThis is armhf arch, not arm64.tbls
on Raspberry Pi devices, which are powered by ARM processors.tbls
in workloads (e.g., self-hosted CI/CD pipelines) running on virtual machines and cloud container platforms powered by the AWS Graviton CPU, which is based on the ARM CPU architecture.
