Bring in aarch64 support in apex
RDO builds packages which are aarch64 compatible but some configuration is needed to succesfully deploy. This change: - Prepares the aarch64 docker.io repo as the source for Kolla Containers - Configures VM sizing for aarch64 undercloud. - Configures VM sizing for aarch64 virtual deploy targets. Vms need to be larger on aarch64 compared to x86 to avoid starvation of resources. (MYSQL) - Configures vda2 as the location of the Linux Kernel in aarch64 in an UEFI system - Configures the vNICs to be on the pci-bus instead of the virtio-mmio bus.This will enalbe the Nics to come up in the same order as the x86 ones, so the extra configuration in ansible is not needed - Configures apex to use a stable version of the ceph:daemon container - Configure apex for containerized undercloud in Rocky - Add extra ansible.cfg file for aarch64 which increases waiting times in ansible for aarch64 - Provide helper scripts for DIB to create aarch64 UEFI images Known limitations: - Selinux is interfering with DHCP requests in ironic and ssh so it must be disabled before the deploy command is ran. - The aarch64 containers are frozen for in this commit: https://trunk.rdoproject.org/centos7-rocky/f3/18/f3180de6439333a2813119ad4b00ef897fcd596f_70883030 - The 600s timeout defined in : https://bugs.launchpad.net/tripleo/+bug/1789680 is not enough for aarch64. A value of 1200s is recommended JIRA: APEX-619 Change-Id: Ia3f067821e12bba44939bbf8c0e4676f2da70239 Signed-off-by: Charalampos Kominos <Charalampos.Kominos@enea.com> Signed-off-by: ting wu <ting.wu@enea.com>
