I've already tried it out, and setting up self-hosted github runners is just as easy as with buildkite, drawbacks: - I'm unsure how would the tagging selection work in practice [1] - We won't have access to the runners dashboard in lack of admin rights for the apache/arrow repository - so we need to test out the workflow.
I've created an INFRA ticket to get some information and to track it: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-19875 [1] https://help.github.com/en/actions/configuring-and-managing-workflows/configuring-a-workflow#using-a-self-hosted-runner > > Thanks, > Wes > > [1]: > https://github.com/ursa-labs/dev-tools/blob/master/buildkite/debian_agent_bootstrap.sh > [2]: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-19217 > > On Wed, Feb 19, 2020 at 3:38 PM Ganesh Raju <ganesh.r...@linaro.org> wrote: > > > > Hi, > > I am following up on the discussion from here > > <https://github.com/apache/arrow/pull/6253>, with interest to have > > dedicated arm hardware for CI setup.
