The Fedora 12 Feature page is how I would expect such things to be handled. We haven't dropped support for a CPU class since then, and I don't expect us to anytime soon for i686/x86_64 CPUs. The next change in x86-land would likely be the removal of 32-bit support entirely, but that is a rather significant change across the distro and I would expect lots of discussion about it before it happened. The ARM team handles things a bit differently in terms of what CPUs they support. I believe right now it's just armv7hfp class CPUs. That should remain the case going forward for 32-bit CPUs, and ARMv8 will add support for 64-bit ARM CPUs when hardware is available. The PowerPC team is currently focused on 64-bit CPUs, primarily POWER7. I would expect POWER8 to be the focus once it is released. The 32-bit ppc kernels are still built, but there is no 32-bit install media and those wishing to use 32-bit PowerPC CPUs are essentially on their own. The s390x support is limited to the big iron System Z machines. If you have one of those, you already know what is going on anyway. We don't support any other class of CPU other than the above mentioned. josh _______________________________________________ kernel mailing list [email protected] https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/kernel
