[PATCH 02/11] gitlab: drop aarch32 runner and associated bits

Posted by Alex Bennée 4 weeks, 1 day ago

While working out what hoops to jump through to get a full set of
aarch32 packages installed on the aarch64 runner it was pointed out 32
bit host support is deprecated. As the extra packages where needed for
system emulation (marked deprecated since 8.0!) there didn't seem much
point keeping this in.

While the full expunging of 32 bit host support will probably be done
for 11.0 we can at least reduce the CI burden a bit now.

Had this file been missing from tests/lcitool/refresh?

There appear to be no more references to ubuntu2204, which is still present in the refresh 
script.

It appears to have been added by hand. In an earlier patch series I had
to make some changes to lcitool to be able to generate yaml:

  lcitool dockerfile --layers all ubuntu-2204 qemu

points to:

  tests/tcg/docker/dockerfiles/ubuntu2204.docker

we will bump those in due course although probably not worth rushing
for 10.2.
