Centos7 for non-x86_64 platforms is deprecated. Ref: https://mariadb.com/kb/en/deprecation-policy/

The RHEL7 that feeds Centos 7 ended supported for non-86_64 platforms. While Centos7 still claims to be supported for aarch64, they simply don't get bugs fixes (including noticed we've noticed and reported to RHEL, that got fixed in RHEL8 only) so for all intensive purposed its not maintained.

Thank you for informing.
I got that Centos 7 ended supported for non-86_64 platforms.
.# amazonlinux2 (os) is still supported until 2025-06-30, I have to do something about it

Thank you for releasing and supporting so far.

Does Amazon Linux 2 have a verifiable history of performing Aarch64 fixes in kernel and critical components on which MariaDB depends? If I looked at the RHEL8 aarch64 fixes could I reasonably find a fix in Amazon Linux 2 (if it is applicable) on the same issue?

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2022588

So I'm considering the framing of this bug at the moment, "should/can we support Amazon Linux 2".

I could not find it in the release note(Amazon Linux 2 release note).

And I checked the source following:

• glibc-2.26-62.amzn2: there is the patched source: `Add -mouline-atomic to the aarch64 BuildFlags` on May 19 2020 (2.26-36.amzn2).
• gcc-7.3.1-15.amzn2: `Linking against libgcc_s should imply linking with libgcc (aarch64)` is not sure, but there are some of code generation patches on Nov 20 2020 (7.3.1-11.amzn2).
  Note: downloading srpm may be needed to get the amazon linux2.

I'm sorry that I said something confusing.

Any aarch64 specific fixes in core packages from 2021 onwards?
