Issue details

Consider publishing arm 64 pulumi-kubernetes-operator images

Affected area/feature

[rquitales]

Note: we'll also need to verify that these images run as expected on ARM nodes.

Upon further testing, this requires upstream changes to pulumi/pulumi-docker-containers to ensure that certain binaries work as expected.

I've pushed an alpha build of this image that could be used for verification and testing, and can be used with the following image tag: pulumi/pulumi-kubernetes-operator:v1.11.5-arm64-alpha.

Any news? 👀 Its been a year since this issue last saw activity.

Update: in 2.x, we now do publish an arm64 build of the operator image (link). However, one still needs to have an arm64 build of the "kitchen-sink" pulumi image (see pulumi/pulumi-docker-containers#297). While we do have arm64 builds of the language-specific images, we don't use them by default.

Also, we don't have "non-root" variants of the language-specific images (see pulumi/pulumi-docker-containers#308).

I just faced this problem within a ARM cluster:

Failed to pull image "pulumi/pulumi:latest-nonroot": rpc error: code = NotFound desc = failed to pull and unpack image "docker.io/pulumi/pulumi:latest-nonroot": no match for platform in manifest: not found

I think for most use cases (with the program CRD) adding a image with the yaml-language provider (multi-arch) would be sufficient to enable support.
Would it make sense to add a new image to https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi-docker-container

For everyone else who just wants to get it running with arm64, here is a workaround with workspace template to get the yaml language provider (and therefore the native Program) running:

apiVersion: pulumi.com/v1
kind: Stack
metadata:
  name: example-stack
spec:
  serviceAccountName: pulumi-workspace
  config: {}
  envRefs: {}
  destroyOnFinalize: true
  programRef:
    name: program
  stack: "my-stack"
  workspaceTemplate:
    spec:
      image: pulumi/pulumi-go:latest
      securityProfile: baseline
      podTemplate:
        spec:
          volumes:
            - name: custom-providers
              emptyDir: {}
          initContainers:
            - name: install-yaml
              image: alpine:latest
              command: ["/bin/sh", "-c"]
              args:
                - arch=$(uname -m);
                  if [ "$arch" = "x86_64" ]; then arch="amd64"; fi;
                  if [ "$arch" = "aarch64" ]; then arch="arm64"; fi;
                  echo "Installing YAML Provider... ${arch}";
                  wget https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi-yaml/releases/download/v1.13.0/pulumi-language-yaml-v1.13.0-linux-${arch}.tar.gz -O - | tar -xz -C /custom-providers -f -;
                  echo "Done.";
              volumeMounts:
                - mountPath: /custom-providers
                  name: custom-providers
          containers:
            - name: pulumi
              volumeMounts:
                - mountPath: /pulumi/bin/pulumi-language-yaml
                  name: custom-providers
                  subPath: pulumi-language-yaml

Thanks @project0 for the clever workaround.
