GitHub Actions now provides Linux runner images on native arm64 hardware[^1], which means we should be able to build the wheels natively, without requiring QEMU. This potentially paves the way (pending a more complete move of CI to GHA) for Linux on AArch64 to potentially gain Tier 1 platforma support.

We previously restricted the tests to a small subset of the suite because of runtime concerns with QEMU. Since we are now running natively, this removes the restriction, bringing Linux AArch64 in line with what we expect from a Tier 2 platform.

It's all good - Linux AArch64 passed all tests. After #13474, there's a high chance that we can promote Linux AArch64 to Tier 1 platform support. |

This LGTM, I'm excited to potentially promote linux aarc64 to tier 1 in 2.0. I think when we do decided to bump it up to tier 1 we should just add this runner to the tier 1 job definition to enable pgo etc since the config is now essentially the same as the normal ubuntu latest job. But for the time being keeping it separate to not enable pgo makes sense to me.

Yeah, I deliberately didn't move it have PGO in the build process here because I somewhat considered that a Tier 1 thing. |
