Recently, Xiaomi has opened the kernel source code of Mi 9 on Github. The project code name is “Cepheus”.

The release of the kernel source code means that developers can develop custom ROMs more easily. The current open source kernel version is the stable version of Mi 9, and the development version of the kernel source code will be open source in the future. In addition, the kernel code for mi 9 SE and other older devices will be gradually open source in 2019.

Xiaomi engineer @Akiba said on weibo that xiaomi’s goal in 2019 is to go public and open source.

At present, it has only been open source for 2 days, and its Github Start number has reached 2600+ and its issue Open number is 485, which is enough to show developers’ love for Xiaomi’s open source this time.
