Compiling Telegraf on pine64 (arm64) errors includes gopsutil undefined PageSize, ClockTicks

[DazWilkin]

Telegraf: github.com/influxdata/telegraf

Trying to build on a pine64 (arm64) unsuccessfully:

go version go1.6.1 linux/arm64

Regular make on Telegraf does not work, working through errors. Trying to just build as:

go build -ldflags "-X main.version=$VERSION" ./cmd/telegraf/telegraf.go

Requires $VERSION (1.0.0-beta1-6-g06cb5a0), grab this from the Makefile

VERSION := $(shell sh -c 'git describe --always --tags')

So, I then tried building gopsutil directly:

go/src/github.com/shirou/gopsutil$ make build_test

GOOS=linux go test ./... | grep -v "exec format error"

Apologies for my ignorance here and if I'm my question is obvious.

I'm happy to try solutions.

[shirou]

It seems process_linux_arm64.go is required explicitly. I added the file on c916da2. Could you check it out?

[DazWilkin]

Thank you for such a prompt response!

[shirou]

make build_test is an internal test for just checking compile error. So, exec format error is expected. However, there are several errors on Linux while getting information from system. Perhaps, arm64 has an different format, but I can not confirm because I don't have an instance... hmm.

[DazWilkin]

Thank you!

I completely understand that this is challenging.

I don't want to waste more of your time.

If you do wish to continue, I'm happy to run tests for you to help you determine the format.

I ordered PINE A64+ Board 1GB just now. After international shipping (it takes a few weeks?), I will try to fix it. Please be patient.
