Unable to reuse cached tools on arch armv7 (Raspberry) #793

Description:

On armv7, setup-node will download Node.js from official and extract to _work/_tool/node/18.16.1/armv7l.

However, setup-node is searching for the cache in _work/_tool/node/18.16.1/arm instead of _work/_tool/node/18.16.1/armv7l. As a result, it can never hit the cache.

My current workaround:
Manually rename the directory from armv7l to arm, setup-node will be able to use cached tool in the next run.

Log: https://github.com/louislam/uptime-kuma/actions/runs/5456311185/jobs/9928952991?pr=3354

The image shows that the directory name do not match.

Action version:
4.305.0

Platform:

  • Ubuntu
  • macOS
  • Windows
  • Raspbian Buster (Similar to Debian) (Raspberry Pi400) (Arch: armv7)

Runner type:

  • Hosted
  • Self-hosted

Tools version:

  • Node.js 14, 18
  • npm

Repro steps:

Option 1:
In case you don't have such hardware. You can fork this pr and create pr on my repo if you want to test: louislam/uptime-kuma#3354. The job armv7-simple-test (ARMv7, 16) is always reproducible.

Option 2:

Expected behavior:
Node.js could be reuse in the next run.

Actual behavior:
Node.js will be downloaded for every run, the cached tool is never used.
