How to run 32bit binary on Compute Engine T2A instance?

I'm using Debian 11 arm64 image.

lscpu command shows only 64bit CPU op-mode, which means 32bit arm binary won't run. 

But the underlying cpu of T2A instance: Ampere Altra supports aarch32 according to its datesheet.

so is there any way to run 32bit binary on T2A instance?

Hello Loong,

As per osvaldolopez, currently, Tau T2A has the following limitations. Between these limitations, you will find that it does not support 32-bit mode ELO (guest userspace support). Here are the supported OS images. Be aware that during public preview certain operating systems do not support all options.
