16 | |||
17 | The :term:`OLDEST_KERNEL` setting has been changed to "5.15" in this release, meaning that | ||
18 | out the box, older kernels are not supported. There were two reasons for this. | ||
19 | Firstly it allows glibc optimisations that improve the performance of the system | ||
20 | by removing compatibility code and using modern kernel APIs exclusively. The second | ||
21 | issue was this allows 64 bit time support even on 32 bit platforms and resolves Y2038 | ||
22 | issues. | ||
23 | |||
24 | It is still possible to override this value and build for older kernels, this is just | ||
25 | no longer the default supported configuration. This setting does not affect which | ||
26 | kernel versions SDKs will run against and does not affect which versions of the kernel | ||
27 | can be used to run builds. | ||
