Setup MariaDB repo (See Amazon Linux below):

curl -sS https://downloads.mariadb.com/MariaDB/mariadb_repo_setup | sudo bash
sudo yum -y install MariaDB-shared MariaDB-devel    # this will also install MariaDB-client MariaDB-common

For Amazon Linux setup the repo using old way:

sudo tee /etc/yum.repos.d/mariadb.repo<<EOF
[mariadb]
name = MariaDB
baseurl = http://yum.mariadb.org/10.6/centos7-amd64/
gpgkey=https://yum.mariadb.org/RPM-GPG-KEY-MariaDB
gpgcheck=1
EOF

cd sysbench-1.x-mariadb
./autogen.sh
./configure  --with-mysql-includes=/usr/include/mysql   --with-mysql-libs=/usr/lib64/ --disable-shared --enable-static

/usr/local/bin/sysbench --version

Known issues

You might experience 'unsupported encoding' error:

[1024] Generic Error: unsupported encoding 4

Please check all possible locations for my.cnf and check if the character set was set to anything from UTF8. The last resort is to use ‘SET NAMES utf8’ as the first statement in the sysbench Lua file.
