In the PC and server industries, Intel’s CPU and Microsoft’s Windows system are all barriers that cannot be bypassed. The ecology of the Wintel alliance makes it difficult for other companies to enter this market. The only opportunities to overtake in a corner are open source systems and open source CPUs. The Ubuntu Kylin system successfully runs on the RISC-V processor. According to overseas media reports, Ubuntu Kylin’s latest version 20.4 has already supported the RISC-V architecture, and it has been running on SiFive’s ITX motherboard HiFive Unmatched, which integrates 4 U74 RISC-V cores with a frequency of 1.4GHz and Can support independent display. In addition to this RISC-V platform, Ubuntu Kylin is also adapting another lower-cost StarFive JH7100 platform, which integrates a dual-core RISC-V core. Although it is too early to replace the x86 processor, there are many possibilities for the open source system + processor combination such as Ubuntu Kylin + RISC-V in the future. In April this year, Dr. Yu Jie, the head of the Ubuntu Kylin project, and Dr. Liu Xiaodong, the head of development, were interviewed by the media and talked about the development of the Ubuntu Kylin ecosystem. .
