The kernel ABI never changes in a backward-incompatible fashion. Unless you try switching your kernel to ARM EABI and don't update userspace to match -- don't do that :) Unless you're using C++, you're more likely to have problems with different versions of libraries, and buggy code which doesn't compile correctly with the new compiler, than you are with GCC ABI variations per se. Especially in the kernel<->userspace interface. -- David Woodhouse Open Source Technology Centre David.Woodhouse@xxxxxxxxx Intel Corporation -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-embedded" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
