Xiaomi Mobile Phone Kernel OpenSource is a Linux kernel distribution maintained for Xiaomi mobile devices.
This repository contains the kernel source code used in Xiaomi phones. It serves developers and device maintainers who need to build, modify, or understand the kernel running on Xiaomi hardware. The kernel is based on the standard Linux kernel but includes Xiaomi-specific modifications, drivers, and optimizations tailored to their device hardware and software stack.
Developers working on Xiaomi devices—whether building custom ROMs, developing kernel modules, or debugging device-level issues—will find the actual source code here rather than relying on decompiled or reverse-engineered versions. This is most relevant for those working within the Xiaomi ecosystem or contributing to community projects that target Xiaomi phones. The repository provides the authoritative reference for what kernel code ships on these devices.
The project shows ongoing maintenance activity with regular updates reflecting kernel changes across Xiaomi's device lineup. Development appears focused on keeping the codebase current with upstream kernel improvements while maintaining compatibility with Xiaomi's hardware and software requirements.
