The LLVM installation is probably also x86_64 and you're trying to load it from an aarch64 process.

The LLVM installation is probably also x86_64 and you're trying to load it from an aarch64 process.

Exactly. You can use https://github.com/marketplace/actions/install-llvm-and-clang to install aarch64 version. Or download manually https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/releases Note that prebuilt binaries for aarch64 are available since v20.1.0.

Generally this image has most tools installed in x86 versions and uses emulation. I think it's not sustainable, especially since the target of those images is to build/test native aarch64 binaries. I think the better strategy would be to install only native binaries in base image and if anything is not available at the time it can be installed by the user as x86, but with explicit decision to do so as it carry some implications.

Thank you for reporting this issue. We will updating the LLVM toolchain with the native arm installation in the next version of the image.
