Summary: supporting hbase on aarch64 platform
Key: HBASE-25170
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-25170
Project: HBase
Issue Type: Wish
Reporter: dingwei2019
HBase release 2.3.2 on September 21, 2020. I download a new version and test
on my machine. At first, I found that the fire-flame on x86 platform and
aarch64 platform were inconsistent. On X86 platform netty use epoll, but on
aarch64 platform netty use nio. Further I find out the code judge if use epoll
make the difference. It do not consider aarch64 platform. Beside is the code:
{color:#4c9aff}return epollEnabled && JVM.isLinux() && JVM.isAmd64();{color}
When i add the aarch64 judge branch, i found regionserver can not start because
of native lib libnetty-transport-native-epoll.so could not be loaded.
I check the third party jar package about HBase-2.3.2, and get the following
table.
|third party jar info of HBase-2.3.2|latest jar package info|
|third party jar package|release time|lib in jar package do not support aarch64
platform|latest version|release time|Supporting aarch64？|
|commons-crypto-1.0.0.jar|2016/7/26|libcommons-crypto.so|commons-crypto-1.1.0.jar|2020/8/28|Yes|
|jline-2.11.jar|2013/5/19|libjansi.so|jline-2.14.6.jar|2018/3/26|No|
|leveldbjni-all-1.8.jar|2013/10/17|libleveldbjni.so|leveldbjni-all-1.8.jar|2013/10/17|No|
|netty-all-4.0.23.Final.jar|2014/8/15|libnetty-transport-native-epoll.so|netty-all-4.1.52.Final.jar|2020/9/8|Yes|
|snappy-java-1.0.5.jar|2013/5/17|libsnappyjava.so|snappy-java-1.1.7.7.jar|2020/8/26|Yes|
According to the table above, we can get the following conclusions:
1、third party jar package is now supporting aarch64 platform(apache hadoop is
now release 3.3.0 to support aarch64, more and more bigdata component is now
supporting aarch64 platform);
2、we now have only leveldbjni-all and jline packages do not support aarch64
platform.
I wish HBase community can support aarch64 platform on hbase in not far future.
