Similar to hebasto, Gemini sponsored my purchase of an Apple M1 box to test builds with. I have now confirmed that our current macOS toolchain + a newer SDK and some other misc changes (#21851) produces working Apple ARM binaries (no qt yet).

https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/21851 | [WIP] build: support cross-compiling for arm64-apple-darwin20 (Apple M1) in depends by fanquake · Pull Request #21851 · bitcoin/bitcoin · GitHub
< fanquake>
There are some additional code-signing requirements, which we should be able to incorporate (ad-hoc signing is good enough), see discussion in #22403.

if you want to fork bitcoin core, go ahead, i don't think it would be bad to have more projects at all, you'll also discover soon enough that maintaining a project like this is difficult
< laanwj>
like you literally get attacked from all sides

[bitcoin] fanquake opened pull request #22436: build: use aarch64 Clang if cross-compiling for darwin on aarch64 (master...arm64_macos_cross_clang) https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/22436
< roconnor>
my googling suggests this is a qemu bug.
< jamesob>
doesn't seem good?
< laanwj>
roconnor: im running it on physical ARM32
< laanwj>
oh! same command line fails on x86_64, it's not ARM32 specific
< jamesob>
haha even worse
< roconnor>
interesting
< roconnor>
this ... sounds familiar.

[Monday, June 28, 2021] [10:07:08 AM EDT] <real_or_random> https://github.com/bitcoin-core/secp256k1/pull/959 :O this had a red cirrus run (due to failed randomness tests), which scared me of for a second...
< roconnor>
[Monday, June 28, 2021] [10:07:15 AM EDT] <real_or_random> we should really fix the seed there
< roconnor>
real_or_random: is this the same error?
< roconnor>
I'll let real_or_random confirm this, but my understanding that this is a test of the quality of the random number generated, and it is, um, expect to fail some small fraction of the time due to chance.
< roconnor>
*quality of the random number generator,
< real_or_random>
yeah, that check fails for a small (but too large) fraction of test seeds
< jamesob>
has anyone come up with any neat tricks for loading all the github comments on a PR?

Hi folks. We have a p2p irc meeting scheduled for today in half an hour. There aren't any suggested topics, and the last few have been pretty quiet, so I'm going to propose that we cancel them for now. If activity picks up, we can always start meeting again.
