Multi-Arch Support in OpenStack
summary
OpenStack now runs an upstream CI pipeline for arm64 called check-arm64 pipeline using roughly 40 Linaro-donated servers, running unit tests via tox/Python 3.8 on Ubuntu Bionic; most Tempest jobs are mostly passing but scenario tests show low success and a recurring nova reboot failure that needs debugging. Packaging work supplies CentOS/RDO artifacts and power (ppc64le) container images exist but nodepool lacks power hardware for CI, and multi-arch wheel/container automation remains a work in progress.
