ARM and MultiArch Support

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Need krkn support for arm and mutliarch platforms

Describe the solution you'd like
Need to update the dockerfile.template to be able to properly create arm and multiarch platform versions

Need to be sure we also update the dependencies of that we build using go in our dockerfile

Additional context

Separate similar issue: Need to also update hog scenarios that run on the nodes themselves: https://github.com/krkn-chaos/krkn-hog/blob/main/Containerfile

Hi @paigerube14, thanks for the context.

I checked the krkn hog Containerfile you linked. It currently uses a Fedora base image and doesn’t include any architecture specific handling, so I can see why multi-arch builds would need explicit updates either in the Dockerfile/Containerfile or in the build pipeline.

I would be interested in helping with:

• Updating the krkn Dockerfile.template for proper multi-arch support
• Aligning the hog Containerfile changes if needed for consistency

Quick clarifications before starting:

1. Are linux/amd64 and linux/arm64 the intended initial targets?
2. Should changes for krkn hog be handled in a separate PR/repo, or referenced only?

Once confirmed, I can propose a concrete approach.

@khushiiagrawal are you able to work on a PR for the krkn side that needs updating

@Sameer6305 if you could update the hog side in a separate pr in the krkn-hog repo that would be much appreciated.
Yes linux/amd64 and linux/arm64 are the initial targets; multi and multi-aarch64 would also be appreciated but can be separate from initial version

TIA to both of you

@paigerube14 sure, that works for me.
thanks!

Thanks for confirming
I will take care of updating the hog side in a separate PR in the krkn-hog repo, focusing on linux/amd64 and linux/arm64 for the initial version. I will follow up here once the PR is ready.

I’ve opened a PR for the krkn-hog side as discussed: krkn-chaos/krkn-hog#1

It adds initial linux/amd64 and linux/arm64 support. Happy to make any adjustments if needed.

I have updated a PR for the krkn-hog side to add multi-arch support, including the requested workflow changes.
