FreeBSD plans to slowly phase out support for 32-bit processors |
|
The FreeBSD project is planning to slowly phase out support for older CPU achitectures, including 32-bit x86 and 32-bit ARM platforms. John Baldwin shared an outline of plans for the next few versions of FreeBSD: "FreeBSD is deprecating 32-bit platforms over the next couple of major releases. We anticipate FreeBSD 15.0 will not include the armv6, i386, and powerpc platforms, and FreeBSD 16.0 will not include armv7. Support for executing 32-bit binaries on 64-bit kernels will be retained through at least the lifetime of the stable/16 branch if not longer. (There is currently no plan to remove support for 32-bit binaries on 64-bit kernels.)" |
