From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I’m more curious about what they contributed rather than how many lines. The article doesn’t seem to take this into account. If they’re just contributing a bunch of drivers for their own hardware I don’t see how it’s “good for Linux”. The article makes it sound like Hauwei is running kennel development.
