# NOTE@oxy:
# We use Ubuntu 16.04 here, so that our build is more compatible
# with older libc versions. We used to (Q1'20) use CentOS 7 here,
# but it has a full update EOL of Q4'20 and a 'critical security'
# update EOL of 2024. We're dropping full support a few years before
# the final EOL, but I don't believe CentOS 7 has a large arm64 userbase.
# It is not feasible to cross-compile with CentOS.

# Cross-compile notes: To compile native dependencies for arm64,
# we install the aarch64/armv7l cross toolchain and then set it as the default
# compiler/linker/etc. with the AR/CC/CXX/LINK environment variables.
# qemu-user-static on ubuntu-16.04 currently doesn't run Node correctly,
# so we just build with "native"/x86_64 node, then download arm64/armv7l node
# and then put it in our release. We can't smoke test the cross build this way,
# but this means we don't need to maintain a self-hosted runner!

# NOTE@jsjoeio:
# We used to use 18.04 until GitHub browned it out on December 15, 2022
# See here: https://github.com/actions/runner-images/issues/6002
# TODO: We should use the same CentOS image to cross-compile if possible?
