Is ARM8 planned to be supported? (AWS EC2 a1 instances)

[kirel]

AWS EC2 instance types of 'a1' are using ARM8 processors (aarch64 in Linux). The only Splunk Universal Forwarder download I find for ARM is ARM6, but it appears not to work. Systemd gives the error of "... Failed at step EXEC spawning /opt/splunkforwarder/bin/splunk: Exec format error
-- Subject: Process /opt/splunkforwarder/bin/splunk could not be executed"

Is there a download that I missed?
Or is there an expected timeframe for this to be supported?

Thank you.

This may help for now:
I was able to get the ARMv6, 32-bit Splunk Universal Forwarder to work on a "Raspberry Pi 4" running Ubuntu (19.10 (Eoan Ermine)) using these steps:

1. dpkg --add-architecture armhf
2. apt-get update
3. apt-get install libc6:armhf libstdc++6:armhf
4. cd /lib
5. ln -s arm-linux-gnueabihf/ld-2.30.so ld-linux.so.3

Output from "uname -a": Linux ubuntu 5.3.0-1014-raspi2 #16-Ubuntu SMP Tue Nov 26 11:18:23 UTC 2019 aarch64 aarch64 aarch64 GNU/Linux

Running Splunk:
