I've added info about how to get access to test environments here: https://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=gnulib/maint-tools.git;a=blob;f=platforms/test-environments.txt https://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=gnulib/maint-tools.git;a=tree;f=platforms/environments In particular, the compile farm has 4 machines with aarch64 CPU. Maybe you also have an Android phone with aarch64 CPU on it (and can install Termux in 64-bit mode on it)? It is correct that emulators sometimes don't implement the need for cache invalidation correctly; I observed this for mips too. But QEMU is quite good nowadays; it's better than nothing. Bruno
