[ARM support] Unable to compile for arm64.

[hyb19960105]

I find a compilation issue, as follows:
The platform I use is arm64, but error when compiling module luajit:

I found that it can compile normally with v2.1 of luajit(but it is no stable version), can I replace the original

Aerospike currently doesn't support ARM.

Dear developers,

Do you have any updates on that issue? With M1 release it is very important, I suppose.

Unfortunately, I cannot start my application locally for developing now on my new laptop with M1 chip that was given to me at work :(

[kportertx]

ARM support is a high-priority item on our roadmap.

Any updates on ARM support? I'd like to use Aerospike on AWS Graviton2 instances.

Seems that aerospike team even does not try to compile on non adm64. Take look at common dependency(for server and clients), it has wrong exclusion list. They would notice that on first attempt to compile.

@ramunasd, our investigational ARM port doesn't use common's master branch - see tsan2.

@robd003, Internally we've built and tested an ARM port as part of an initial investigational effort to estimate the overall cost of such a port. This investigation has highlighted a few porting strategies, each with its own advantages and disadvantages, which are being debated. A GA ARM release is planned for later this year.

[robd003]

@kportertx It'd be great if you guys could push the port here so the community could help fix issues. I wasn't able to find the tsan2 branch anywhere

[robd003]

@kportertx any update on this?

I'd really like to use aerospike on AWS Graviton2 instances since we've fully migrated our fleet away from Intel.

This is the primary feature for the upcoming 6.2. Our tests will likely focus on graviton 2.

6.2 has been released with ARM support: https://download.aerospike.com/download/server/notes.html#6.2.0.0
