嵌入式Linux操作系统的特性

微处理器技术的发展使嵌入式系统得到广泛应用。一个小型、实时、性能良好的嵌入式操作系统的研发和应用,就成为嵌入式系统进一步应用要解决的首要问题了。文中在重点分析Linux的系统特点,以及Linux的内核组成和各组成部分的功能的基础上,说明了嵌入式Linux的3个基本元素和嵌入式Linux内核应该具备的功能。分析表明,虽然Linux存在一些不足之处,但其组成特点和源码开放的特性使得Linux必将成为嵌入式系统开发的一个高效、实用的操作系统。

Characteristics of Embedded Linux Operation System

As the development of the microprocessor technology,embedded system has been widely used.It is a chief problem to the farther application of the embedded system to the research and application of a small,real-time and good capability embedded operation system.This article illuminates the three key components of embedded Linux and the function of its kernel in the basic of emphatically analyzing the Linux character and kernel component and the function of every component.From the analyzing can draw the conclusion that although there are some defects in the Linux,it definitely can be an efficient and practicality operation system in the embedded application exploitation because of its component character and code opening.
