Linux compatibility

Microsoft-provided portable Linux builds define minimum compatibility primarily via libc version.

Libc Version Architectures Source
glibc 2.23 Arm64, x64 Ubuntu 16.04
glibc 2.35 Arm32 Ubuntu 22.04
musl 1.2.2 Arm32, Arm64, x64 Alpine 3.13

Note: Microsoft-provided portable Arm32 glibc builds are supported on distro versions with a Y2038 incompatible glibc or a Y2038 compatible glibc with _TIME_BITS set to 32-bit, for example Debian 12, Ubuntu 22.04, and lower versions.

Notes

  • The QEMU emulator is not supported to run .NET apps. QEMU is used, for example, to emulate Arm64 containers on x64, and vice versa.
