Sunway RaiseOS

Linux derivative for the Sunway architecture.

Why this part

A Linux port to the Sunway SW26010's unusual heterogeneous core layout, and as domestic as the rest of Sunway TaihuLight: the processor, the fabric and the software all designed and built inside China. Porting an operating system to a wholly custom instruction set is years of unglamorous work with no public showcase of its own, and it is exactly the layer a substitution programme has to complete before a processor is usable rather than merely built.

“Units recorded” sums only the edges where a public source states a quantity. It is a floor, not a total, and should never be read as installed base.
