Hi folks, as Alexey mentioned in a previous comment, CircleCI offers machine-based ARM resources today: https://circleci.com/docs/2.0/arm-resources/

I will be marking this as complete to avoid confusion between a request for ARM resources in general and a request to support ARM with CircleCI's Docker executor. If you are interested in ARM on a Docker executor, please upvote this request: https://circleci.canny.io/cloud-feature-requests/p/support-arm-resource-class-on-docker-executor

Thanks all!

Please allow us to use arm images in setup remote docker. This would allow a workflow where we setup a native amd64 remote docker environment, and a native arm remote docker environment. Then configure buildx to point to the native environments and kick off our manifest build. It would be significantly faster and avoid Qemu.

+1, we can cross-compile to ARM easily enough, but would like to do a full test run on CI, and the Docker executors are preferable to machine executors.

Hi all, I’m one of the product managers at CircleCI. Wanted to share that we have started a preview of arm64 executors. These executors are suitable for building and running arm64 Docker images. Please note that these preview executors are more similar to our Machine executor (dedicated VMs) than to our Docker executor.

The preview is available both on the free plan and on our usage-based plans (Performance, Scale, and Custom).

Check out the Arm preview docs for more details of what’s available.

If you’d like to try out the Arm executors, please submit a request using the Arm preview interest form (the same form is also linked in the preview docs).

If you can’t use the preview for any reason — e.g., if what we are offering in preview doesn’t solve for your needs — please let me know if a comment here. Very curious to understand your use case further.

Thanks!

We're using circleCI machine executor with QEMU to build multi-arch

And the config here:

Base on your machine processor architecture, Docker will automatically pull the right image for you:

docker run --rm --name nc-test -p 1234:1234 namiops/circleci-multiarch

Test:

nc -v localhost 1234

Inspect the image architecture:

docker manifest inspect --verbose namiops/circleci-multiarch

FWIW: +1. Obviously, these are the times of the Arm uprising. And yes, we need to deploy to Arm

+1 we are looking at moving our Go workloads to run on ARM, and we need ARM executors to be able to run their CI pipelines
