Why are RHEL 10.0 and CentOS Stream 10 Deprecating Older But Fully Compliant x86_64-v3-Capable Processors?
I currently have the Free 16-Instance subscription for RHEL, so I wanted to test drive CentOS Stream 10 to check out what's coming in RHEL version 10.
To my surprise, upon booting the latest development ISO for Stream 10 from here: https://composes.stream.centos.org/stream-10/ , I was greeted with a warning that my computer's processor, an Intel Core i5-11400, is being deprecated in this release and will no longer work on a future major release of the distribution (I guess that would be RHEL 11?)...
The issue is, this entire family of processors (Rocket Lake-S) is not only compatible with x86_64-v3 (the minimum baseline ISA for 10.0), it is also fully compatible with the even more modern x86_64-v4 ISA.
The same hardware deprecation warning also shows up for the Core i5-5200U on my Dell laptop, which is also fully compliant with RHEL 10's baseline requirement.
Is this warning a bug? Or will I have to build a new computer to migrate to RHEL 11 in the future?
-- The most confusing thing about this warning is that even a processor that is technically way above RHEL 10's requirement, with AVX-512 and all the other features that make up x86_64-v4, is being detected as deprecated.
