arm64
is a rather new player in the server market: AWS Gravitron instances use it, but it is also used when running Linux-based VMs on Apple's new M1 chips.As someone explained on StackOverflow, the Linux Kernel uses
aarch64
at the name for this architecture, and that's what is reported by Facter.Apt, however, uses the
arm64
architecture name for this platform.This mismatch can cause bugs as in puppetlabs/docker, and thus my suggestion is to fix it here in a central location.
I am not familiar with Ruby programming and rspec-based acceptance tests. So, if that's a requirement for getting this merged, any help is greatly appreciated.
