Milestone
New Linux versions get released over time, and old ones cannot be supported indefinitely. This is the tracking recurring issue for announcing end of support for very old versions that we decide to drop support for. (The corresponding tracking issues for macOS and Windows, the other two OSes that have first class ports, are #23011 and #52188.)
The most recent change was applied in Go 1.18, where proposal #45964 increased the minimum Linux kernel version requirement from 2.6.23 to 2.6.32. See https://go.dev/doc/go1.18#linux.
