Getting older Linux kernel for PetaLinux?

How can I get older Linux kernel for PetaLinux? I am currently using PetaLinux 2015.2, which has 3.19 kernel version.

I need something as old as 3.6 - 3.8... or at least 3.10.

Hi armendzh,

Check out UG977, Appendix C for details on how to use an external kernel with PetaLinux:

http://www.xilinx.com/support/documentation/sw_manuals/petalinux2014_2/ug977-petalinux-getting-started.pdf

With those instructions, you should be able to use Git check out an older version (release tag) of the kernel from the Xilinx Github and point PetaLinux to that source tree.

Keep in mind that there are limits of how far back you can go in kernel version:
