+Subject: [PATCH] wasm: avoid cmake try_run when cross-compiling for x86
+
+This fixes building the wasm micro runtime used when enabling wasm
+support in fluentbit.
+cmake try_run does not work when cross-compiling because the test program
+cannot be executed:
+
+| CMake Error: try_run() invoked in cross-compiling mode, please set the following cache variables appropriately:
+|    TEST_WRGSBASE_RESULT (advanced)
+| For details see .../fluentbit/3.1.9/build/TryRunResults.cmake
+|      Write linear memory base addr to x86 GS register disabled
+| -- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!
+
+Since we cannot run the test program, assume that the instruction is not
+available and disable the option.
+
+This patch is no longer needed once fluentbit updates WAMR, as it's been
+fixed in https://github.com/bytecodealliance/wasm-micro-runtime/pull/3066.
+
+Upstream-Status: Pending [https://github.com/fluent/fluent-bit/pull/8744]
