- A "warning" will be put in to make build on the 20.05 (this) release.
- A build abort will be put in to make build on the 20.08 release, which can be
bypassed with an environment variable.
- The current owner of the deprecation process is Bruce.
2) rte_atomic deprecation
- GCC 4.8.5 & Clang 3.4.2 compilers are part of CentOS7 & RHEL7 and these
