Chapter 583 LINX Open Source

On the day of the 201314th festival, don't smash two votes... When Lin Hong proved that multiple consciousnesses can coexist in one consciousness space, he withdrew from it.

Lin Hong has not figured out how to achieve this step for the time being. The only certainty is that he has this ability.

When the two sisters Chen Qinghe and Chen Qinglian left Lin Hong's office, Zhang Jin, who had been secretly concerned, came to Lin Hong's office.

"Brother Lin, you don't have to be in such a hurry in the daytime, do you?" Zhang Jin said with a playful face, "That's fine, but you have to pay attention to the impact and close the door of the office, right?"

Lin Hong looked at her stunned and randomly understood what she meant.

He couldn't help smiling bitterly and said, "Where are you thinking? It's not as you think. Just now, the two sisters came to me for something, and I happened to do a small experiment with them.

Zhang Jin looked at Lin Hong suspiciously for a long time, and finally chose to trust Lin Hong for the time being.

She shrugged her shoulders and said, "These things are not within my jurisdiction, so I won't say more. That's all for today, and the vacation will start tomorrow.

Lin Hong nodded and said, "Okay, have a good rest for a while, and leave the company's business to me."

Lin Hong has made up his mind to develop the company well during this period and put the company on the track of rapid development.

......

Early the next morning, Lin Hong held a plenary meeting of the LINX Technical Department.

In fact, Lin Hong is not satisfied with the progress of LINX. After such a long time, it has only some functional extensions and patches for the previous version. There is no commendable revolutionary improvement at all, and it is still carried out in the original framework he set.

However, it can't be blamed on the developers of the technical department. It's quite good that they can do this. After all, they can't be compared with Lin Hong. In China, their technical level in this field is equivalent to the top.

Of course, compared with some of the world's first-class masters. There is still a certain gap.

Lin Hong believes that if you want LINX to develop and grow rapidly, it will eventually grow into an operating system comparable to the current... and WINDOW. LIKE LINUX, WITH THE POWER OF OPEN SOURCE, A DEVELOPER COMMUNITY MUST BE BUILT, SO THAT PROGRAMMERS ALL OVER THE WORLD ARE PART OF THIS PROJECT.

This is to take advantage of the opportunity to gather the wisdom of the people to serve this project, which will eventually have a huge effect.

The reason why LINUX can grow so rapidly is that there are a lot of programmers around the world who are silently contributing code to it.

LINX should be open source.

When Lin Hong announced the news to everyone, it also aroused everyone's discussion for a while.

Some people are in favor and some people are against.

Those who oppose it are basically worried about the security of the system.

After all. Now Tricolor Fire Company has cooperated with the military, and some important systems used in armaments are LINX. If it is open source, will it lead to intrusion?

Those who agree with it think so. Although open source is likely to bring some security problems, it can only be said to be temporary.

If the security is only brought about by confidentiality, it is definitely not real security. In the end, these loopholes will definitely be exposed on the day. Instead, it is better to open the code. Let the masters all over the world test it, so that the code will become stronger and stronger, and there will be fewer and fewer loopholes.

Basically, this layer of concern is mainly the seconded technicians of the National University of Defense Technology. Although open source is indeed a very good solution, it is not a very good choice for military systems.

In their opinion, it is best to locate LINX in the field of military systems, strictly control the confidentiality level of the source code, and ensure maximum system security.

These people in the technical department were divided into two distinct factions. Everyone argued and expressed their views at the venue, and the whole venue was almost a debate.

Lin Hong didn't expect that his decision would cause such a big reaction from everyone.

However, his determination to open source the LINX has not wavered.

LINX security does not depend on whether the source code is open or not. If you are a real master, even if you do not open the source code, you can still find loopholes. After all, some loopholes are not the system itself, but based on those protocols that now exist. No matter how secure the system is, it still needs to comply with Some protocols, otherwise there is no universality at all. You have to develop everything by yourself... It is closed source, and the source code is strictly confidential, but different loopholes are full of loopholes? Do you often hang at the top of the list of unsafe systems?

Lin Hong has always believed that there is no absolutely safe system at all, and the most unsafe factor lies in people.

Of course, the opponents' concerns are also reasonable, but Lin Hong has another solution, not that the system and the civil system share the same code.

However, he did not raise this point at the meeting, but said directly and very dictatorially: "LINX open source, I'm not asking for everyone's opinions, but just announcing this fact. That's all for this meeting. It's over.

Strictly speaking, this is the first meeting held after the company's reorganization and relocation, and it is also the first controversial decision made by Lin Hong.

For the early development of the company, Lin Hong will never allow any opposition within the company, especially in the technical field.

The news soon spread throughout the company.

It can be said that many people have seen Lin Hong's strength for the first time.

And the old people think that this situation is very normal. In the field of technology, Lin Hong has absolute authority. They have habitually obeyed absolutely. It's not that they don't object, but that they feel that the gap between them and the boss is too big. The two are not the same level of power at all.

In the end, the news reached Zhang Jin's ears on vacation.

After hearing this, Zhang Jin did not call Lin Hong to persuade him of this decision as requested by the other party, but just said indifferently, "He is the president of the company and the largest shareholder."

Of course, in private, Zhang Jin finally called Lin Hong and asked him if he had informed the relevant military departments of the news. In the end, she completed the matter.

LINX is finally open source to the outside world.

did not publicize with great fanfare, but just established an open source community and appeared on the Internet quietly.

The Internet is like the ocean. New websites appear every day, and some websites disappear from the ocean.

Open source code will naturally form many versions. LINUX is like this at present. Although it has just come out, there are many different versions. All kinds of versions have formed many platforms, and everyone is developing their own platforms. Although this has formed a situation of blooming flowers and added a lot of different choices, it has scattered everyone's strength, resulting in a lot of repetitive development and a waste of resources.

LINX is different. An official community was established at the beginning.

Whether you have a branch or not, the official will always maintain a version, not only the kernel version, but also the software version on the periphery of the system.

Tricolor Fire Company will formulate a series of standards according to the actual situation, and then let programmers program according to these standards in order to unify the rules and platforms as much as possible to achieve maximum compatibility.

LINX open source news is only spreading and spreading in a small circle, and is mainly limited to China. Everyone's curiosity about LINX is that this is an operating system developed by domestic companies. With this alone, it has attracted enough technicians to go to the official opening at the first time. The source code is downloaded locally on the FTP of the source community for research.

However, at present, LINX is only a real-time embedded operating system for the time being, and it cannot run directly on the hardware of the PC. This threshold alone filters many people who want to join in the fun.

Basically, the people who download it and run it successfully are real people in the circle.

At the beginning, everyone didn't have much hope for this. After all, the three-color fire company has not appeared in everyone's vision for a long time. At the beginning, it was just a compatible computer sales company with a little bit of technology. In a blink of an eye, it was said that the operating system was written. Isn't the span

However, when everyone read the code and saw the super hardware adaptability of LINX, they were a little surprised. The fact was far beyond their imagination.

Soon, LINX spread by word of mouth in the circle, and its beautiful and simple design ideas and structure were recognized by many people.

Gradually, some foreign hardware and embedded communities have come into contact with this system, some sporadic users have begun to appear, and some question posts have begun to appear on the official open source forum of LINX.

......

After making the decision to open source for LINX, the first task assigned by Lin Hong to the members of the LINX project team was to write a common operating system driver module for LINX, so that LINX can run successfully on common PC hardware.

Of course, in order to save time, Lin Hong directly completed the general framework and also completed most of the source code.

Lin Hong's limited time for this module is one week.

Although he already has a prototype of such a system in his notebook, some code and technology are not suitable for disclosure for the time being.

In order to further expand the influence of LINX and allow more programmers to participate in the development, the coverage of LINX must be improved. Obviously, PC hardware is the most and the easiest to obtain at present.

Therefore, Lin Hong ranked the development of LINX's general operating system module first.

Because of Lin Hong's return, the development of LINX has completely entered the fast lane. Although it has just begun, it is believed that in the near future, LINX will become an operating system that cannot be ignored in the computer field. ( To be continued) RQ
