Article title: Android may return to the Linux kernel. Linux is a technology channel of the IT lab in China. Includes basic categories such as desktop applications, Linux system management, kernel research, embedded systems, and open source.

According to a message from the Linux Collaboration Summit recently held in Los Angeles, Android is likely to be accepted in the Linux kernel.

Android was stripped from the Linux kernel at the beginning of the year, and the reason given by the Linux Foundation was the lack of attention and maintenance. Specific differences can be seen in the media reports at that time.

At the recent Linux Collaboration Summit, members of Google's Android development team met with Linux kernel developers and hoped to discuss and resolve their differences so as to go through the embarrassing chapter in the history of Linux.

Jim Zemlin, executive director of the Linux Foundation, told the media, "I think they want to solve it... the purpose of the meeting is to put the debate on the desktop ." Chris, Google's open-source project manager, said this would be a "multi-year" process. "I don't think this will take more than a day or two to solve the problem ." He pointed out that returning to the Linux community will not be too difficult, because Google has made great efforts to bring Android and Linux kernel closer.

This means that there will be no technical problems when Android enters the Linux kernel again and is accepted by the Linux Foundation. because the Android market is developing very well, Google must also consider compatibility with more devices, therefore, the willingness of both parties is not a problem.
