Ngamaxesha athile, Abaphuhlisi beLinux kernel xoxa okanye udibane ukuxoxa ngezihloko ezithile. Ngokwesiqhelo ezinye ii-NOC zisetyenziselwa ukudibana nobuso, kodwa ii-LKML ezidumileyo zisetyenziselwa ukuxoxa ngezinye iinkcukacha ezinje ngezi.
Ngesi sihlandlo isihloko esithile sithethwe, kwaye kunjalo umda wobude bemigca yokubhaliweyo kwi-Linux kernel. Kukho abantu abathanda imigca ithuba elide ukuba bangachithi indawo ethe nkqo, kwaye abanye bakhetha imigca emifutshane ukuze bangahlali kububanzi obukhulu. Ingakumbi ngumcimbi wokungcamla okanye phantse ubuhle.
Abanye bacinga ukuba iimonitha kunye nezisombululo zescreen zikhulu kakhulu kule minyaka idlulileyo kangangokuba imigca emide kufuneka ivunyelwe ukuba ibhalwe kwiifayile zekhowudi yekernel. Ngapha koko, omnye wabaphuhlisi ogama linguAlastair D'Silva uphakathi kwabo bacinga njalo, kwaye wathumela isicatshulwa esivumela ubude be Umgca we-64-byte endaweni yee-byte ezili-16 okanye ezingama-32 zangoku.
Abanye njenge UPetr Mladek akazange ayithande le nto, kuba ucinga ukuba i-byte ezingama-64 zithetha ukuba ngaphezu kwama-256 oonobumba kumgca ngamnye, kwaye uyathandabuza ukuba nawuphina umntu angakufumana kulula ukufunda umgca omde ngendlela elula, kwaye nokuba isisombululo sescreen siyimfuneko ukulungisa olo hlobo Imigca kufuneka ibe ngaphezulu kune-HD esemgangathweni, kwaye kusenokwenzeka ukuba basekhona abaphuhlisi abanemiboniso yanamhlanje kwezo zisombululo.
Kubonakala ngathi mancinci amathuba okuba isiziba esibhalwe ngu-Alastair yafakwa ngokusemthethweni kwi-kernel ye-Linux. Ukongeza, siyazi ukuba iLinus Torvalds ingqongqo ngokungathandi abanye abaphuhlisi kunabanye kwaye iqiniseke ukuba abaphuhlisi banokusebenza nokuba nezixhobo ezithobekileyo, izixhobo ezindala kunye nexabiso eliphantsi. Ngapha koko, ubude bemigca ayisiyonto intsha, yayisele igutyungelwe ngaphambili. ULinus ngokwakhe wathetha ngobude xa exoxa ukusuka kubalinganiswa abangama-80 ukuya kwali-100, ekhetha ukugcina ama-80 ngelo xesha (kwiminyaka esi-7 eyadlulayo).
