The v0.1.0 tag's arm64 job failed with
fatal error: bits/wordsize.h: No such file or directory
because gcc-aarch64-linux-gnu alone doesn't pull in the cross libc
headers on Ubuntu 24.04 runners. Add libc6-dev-arm64-cross +
linux-libc-dev-arm64-cross so the cross-toolchain has its sysroot.
For 'people should say just use iamroot' framing, the install gate is
the single biggest discoverability bottleneck. This commit makes it:
curl -sSL https://github.com/KaraZajac/IAMROOT/releases/latest/download/install.sh | sh
.github/workflows/release.yml:
- Triggers on semver tag push (v*.*.*) + manual dispatch.
- Matrix build for x86_64 (gcc) and arm64 (aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc cross).
- Per-arch sha256sum alongside the binary.
- Auto-generates release notes pointing at CVES.md / ROADMAP.md and
including the install one-liner with the version-specific URL.
- Publishes via softprops/action-gh-release@v2.
install.sh (also uploaded as a release artifact, so the curl|sh
above is stable):
- Detects arch (x86_64 / aarch64 → arm64).
- Pulls iamroot-<arch> + iamroot-<arch>.sha256 from the requested
version (default: latest).
- Verifies sha256 via sha256sum or shasum -a 256.
- Installs to /usr/local/bin/iamroot (or $IAMROOT_PREFIX). Uses sudo
iff /usr/local/bin isn't already writable.
- Prints quickstart hints + ethics pointer at the end.
- Env knobs: IAMROOT_VERSION, IAMROOT_PREFIX, IAMROOT_REPO.
README.md gains a 'Quickstart' section at the top with the four
canonical commands: install, --scan, --audit, --detect-rules,
fleet-scan. Lands the 'curl|bash and go' UX as the first thing
visitors see.
- .github/workflows/build.yml: matrix of {gcc, clang} x {default,
debug} builds on every push + PR. Smoke tests after build:
--version, --list, --scan, --detect-rules auditd, --detect-rules
sigma. Build failure breaks merge gate.
- Static-build job runs continue-on-error (glibc + NSS issue with
static linking — getpwnam pulls in NSS at runtime; legacy DIRTYFAIL
Makefile noted this. Revisit with musl-gcc to get a truly portable
static binary).
- Kernel-VM matrix placeholder commented at the bottom of build.yml.
Real kernel matrix needs self-hosted runners or a paid VM service —
out of scope for tonight, in scope for Phase 4 followup.
