Hello,
4.3.0 minimal kernel ABI is too high for Ubuntu. And specifically for
the Ubuntu 16.04 LTS release.
Specifically this will prevent executing Ubuntu on foreign kernels. For
example it will be impossible to run Ubuntu buildd chroots on stable
Debian releases; it will be impossible to run Ubuntu docker containers
on e.g. IBM z/KVM distribution; this will prevent LXD from running on
multiple current stable host platforms. For these reasons, this request
is out of scope for 16.04 as it will limit availability and usability of
16.04 LTS. Minimal kernel ABIs are re-visited early each cycle, and take
into consideration wide variety of usecases, currently supported
hardware, and supported users both with Ubuntu alone and the wider Linux
community.
Regards,
Dimitri.
