Glibc 2.24 _might_ require minimum kernel version 3.2

Glibc 2.24 _might_ require minimum kernel version 3.2

[Khem Raj]

Hi

This is FYI, as I have sent a RFT for glibc 2.24, there might be another change
coming which is under discussion on glibc mailing lists which is on
supported minimum
kernel version bump to 3.2 since 2.6.32 will be EOLed this summer [1]

If anyone is planning on using upcoming yocto/OE release and sticking
to kernels older than  3.2 then please plan for upgrading your kernel.

Thanks

Um, have you?  2.23 hasn't been released yet and I think that's the
version you sent an RFT for.  2.24 is still some way off.

What about our timeline - is glibc 2.24 planned for the next 2.1 release?

Thanks, its like 10month ahead of time warning so no one then forces
to keep us using 2.6.32
