Wilfred Spiegelenburg commented on YUNIKORN-725:
------------------------------------------------
We do not need a new environment for this. With the [docker
buildx|https://docs.docker.com/buildx/working-with-buildx/] tool as pointed out
by Holden we can do this from a linux host or even Mac laptop. We just need to
update the build commands for the images. The docker blog describes this
[here|https://www.docker.com/blog/multi-platform-docker-builds/]. Docker
Desktop for Mac comes with docker buildx and is free to use for a developer
working on an open source project (**caveats apply based on your employer ect)
For us that means we need to:
* generate a binary using a cross compilation by specifying GOOS & GOARCH
* update the Makefile to use buildx
* build on a machine that has buildx, for both release and github actions
The current PR workflow uses the latest ubuntu release as the OS. According to
github action tool support for [ubuntu
latest|https://github.com/actions/virtual-environments/blob/main/images/linux/Ubuntu2004-Readme.md]
we have docker buildx as a build tool available. It should thus not break our
PR workflow either.
We only need to generate multiple docker images during the release cycle.
Allowing a user to build an image for another platform from the source release
should also be possible. So as long a the config in the shim allows us to
easily do that and does not break our PR workflow I do not see why we cannot
build that into the base Makefiles.
We do need some help with this [~srisco]. I assume there are more people around
that could help out if we get stuck somewhere.

> It would be good to support arm64, this is probably not too painful and can
> be done by swapping docker build with docker buildx, but there's often edge
