It is as lightweight as RTOS and as easy-to-use as Linux. -The kernel repository is used to store the source code of the OpenHarmony kernel components, including process and thread scheduling, memory management, IPC mechanism, and timer management, as well as the version package compilation information. +The OpenHarmony kernel includes basic kernel functions such as process and thread scheduling, memory management, IPC mechanism, and timer management. + +The source code of the OpenHarmony kernel consists of two repositories: the [`kernel_liteos_a`](https://gitee.com/openharmony/kernel_liteos_a) repository for Cortex-A processors and the [`kernel_liteos_m`](https://gitee.com/openharmony/kernel_liteos_m) repository for Cortex-M processors. The directory structures of the two repositories are similar.
