Huh? Linux has one of the most stable ABIs ever. You can still run code from nearly twenty years ago (given the proper libc) - the syscall interface is incredibly stable.
What you are probably thinking about are kernel internals. But since when are drivers considered applications!?
Application Bianry Interface (Score:1)

I the post above, user "hairyfeet (841228)" asks about stable ABI...
Sad that he did not answer to that question, or it was not chosen? I would have liked to hear some new arguments, and about future plans...
The questons he got, or choose to answer are not really deep, anyone could have given them...
