In an effort to raise the minimum version required to build the kernel to 4.8 (7 years old) I've fallen down a rabbit hole and ended up having to hack the page table code for (68040 released 30 years ago). I wonder who runs this stuff?

Might be unpopular opinion, but when stuff like that ends up being nothing but a maintenance burden, it's time to cut it loose...

But Jens, you can still buy the MMU! (Registers, memory, clocks and pretty much everything else sold separately).

Ah, GCC 4.8. A fine vintage to uncork on a cold evening. Fresh hints of AArch64 linger on the tongue, with an aftertaste of -Og to optimise for debug. The 2013 weather resulted in the astringent reload flavour of previous releases becoming a more palatable, cherry LRA

I know some guys running 68040 and 68060. But rather not Linux...

What hardware out of curiosity? Gotta imagine it’d be nearly possible to find something … new.

Linux works on a 68040? 😱

And has for 20 years, at least. (I used to be a part of the Debian port for m68k...)
