This is a fork of https://gitlab.com/gdunstone/docker-buildx-qemu, which appears to be a fork of a fork. anyhow, updates are required. Credit to original and derivitive devs/contributors for getting it to the stage they had!!

This docker image enables building of multi-architecture docker builds. It's designed to run within a CI environment.

To use this image within Gitlab CI/CD Pipelines the following as a minimum is required within your gitlab-ci.yaml file, specifically the before_script section of your docker buildx build job:

before_script:
  # see: https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-runner/-/merge_requests/1861 
  # on why this `docker run` is required. without it multiarch support doesnt work.
  - docker run --rm --privileged multiarch/qemu-user-static --reset -p yes
  - update-binfmts --display
  - update-binfmts --enable # Important: Ensures execution of other binary formats is enabled in the kernel
  - docker buildx create --driver=docker-container --driver-opt image=moby/buildkit:v0.11.6 --use
  - docker buildx inspect --bootstrap

When the above is added to the before_script section of the docker container build job, Gitlab CI has been initialized for multi-architecture builds.
