| # AWS Linux ARM Builder |
| |
| ## Machines |
| |
| The AWS builders use the m6 instance types which are arm64 based machines of varying specifications. |
| The base type used will be m6g.xlarge 4 vCPUs, 16384 MiB. |
| |
| ## Machine Image |
| |
| Machine images are stored on AWS EBS service as a snapshot. New VMs can use the snapshot as an image |
| by providing the AMI ID as the base image when a new VM is created. The machine image will be configured |
| to install and initialize rundockerbuildlet. |
| |
| ## Buildlet Container Image |
| |
| Buildlet container images must be build on an arm/arm64 instance with the proper credentials. The instructions |
| are as follows: |
| |
| * In your normal gcloud dev environment, retrieve a short-lived access token: |
| |
| `you@dev:~$ gcloud auth print-access-token` |
| |
| * On an arm64 instance, clone the build repository. |
| |
| * cd into the `env/linux-arm/aws` directory. |
| |
| * Execute: `make prod-push` |
| |
| * When prompted for your password, paste in the access token from the first step. |
| |
| * Ensure `/root/.docker/config.json` has been deleted. |
