libbpf is meant to work with the bpf that kernel provides. In focal, newer versions of bpf toolchain are provided, because llvm is regularly backported. In focal, libbpf used to be vendored inside dwarves-dfsg and it is desired as a new package to i.e. build linux bpf tools, and because focal receives hwe kernel backports from impish.
From kernel point of view, I don't need new libbpf in hirsute, because hirsute does not receive hwe kernels. Can I update libbpf in focal, without having it in hirsute? Would it help to vendor newer libbpf inside src:dwarves-dfsg for the SRU purposes, as it shipped in focal? Such that libbpf newer than hirsute does not appear in focal? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1912811 Title: Update dwarves-dfsg in focal to version 1.21 from hirsute To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dwarves-dfsg/+bug/1912811/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
