Without qemu support the only way is to go the cross compile approach.
Makes sense.
B1-Systems is currently pushing patches for OBS to support this, but since it is invasive it is a time consuming work to merge them.
However, it may be interessting to run another OBS instance where we just take all of their patches and try to cross build for aarch64.
It would be useful to see how things compare between v8 & v7, but not essential. If it is possible to do thisa it could be useful.
In any case, it would be helpfull if people can find out which patches esp. for binutils and gcc are used to support that aarch and adapt them for the suse packages, so that they apply at least.
Do you mean go through [0] and pull out all the aarch64 patches and try and apply them to factory based packages? Interestingly enough, Fedora also have a list of unchanged packages [1] which may help with prioritising what packages need work. Not sure how similar things would be for us, but...
