Dear Cloud team, I am maintaining the package storm-lang in Debian. I recently read some discussions about PAC on debian-devel, and realized that enabling PAC there will break the JIT compiler in subtle ways. I have since devised a patch that likely solves the issue, but I do not have access to any ARM machines that support PAC and I can therefore not test whether the patch is correct.
To get input, I reached out to the debian-arm list, and Arthur Petitpierre suggested using Graviton3 or Graviton4 instances through AWS since they support PAC. Arthur recommended me to reach out to you since you could hopefully help get access to such machines via credits provided via Amazon's open source program (or similar). Is this something that is possible for me as a DM to use? If so, what would be the best way forward? I should mention that this is not an urgent issue. For the time being I have disabled PAC in the storm-lang package, which solves the issues, even if other packages in the system use PAC. Therefore, this does not have to be fixed before the freeze (I would like to test my patches more thoroughly than that anyway). Also, I am open to other suggestions if there are better options. Thank you for your advice and help, Regards Filip Strömbäck (Please cc me as I am not subscribed to this list)
