Supported kernel, libc, toolchain versions - pevik/ltp GitHub Wiki
We test master branch in GitHub Actions to ensure LTP builds on various distributions including old, current and bleeding edge. We test both gcc and clang toolchains, various architectures with cross-compilation. For list of tested distros see .github/workflows/ci.yml.

Note
|
GitHub Actions does only build testing, passing the CI means only that the test compiles fine on variety of different distributions and releases. GitHub Actions also uses the latest distribution image of a particular release. |

Older distributions are not officially supported, which means that it may or may not work. It all depends on your luck. It should be possible to compile latest LTP even on slightly older distributions than we support with a few manual tweaks, e.g. disabling manually tests for newly added syscalls, etc. Trivial fixes/workarounds may be accepted, but users are encouraged to move to a newer distro.
If latest LTP cannot be compiled even with some amount of workarounds, you may result to older LTP releases, however these are not supported in any way. Also if you are trying to run LTP on more than 10 years old distribution you may as well reconsider you life choices.

Targetted libc, tested both compilation and actual test results. |
|
Although not being tested it should work as well as it attempt to maintain a glibc compatible interface. |
|
Older uClibc might have problems. |

Not yet fully supported (see CI script for list of files which need to be deleted in order to compile under musl). |
