This is indeed WIP and the thing is being developed by many parties: ARM, EPAM, 
Xilinx...

And unfortunately I cannot give you even a rough estimate when this is going to 
happen

as there are so many topics to cover for ARM yet. Of course, we try to make the 
code fit x86

as well, so we share the code between the architectures...

Thank you,

Oleksandr
