Apparently they’ve been accused of submitting small patches that individually don’t contain much useful code in order to inflate their contribution figures and other stuff like submitting low quality code? According to the thread on /r/Linux. I feel like I’m not getting the full story here, or even if this was a Huawei corporate decision or just a bunch of Huawei workers doing this individually. From the other non-explanation comments, I do get the suspicion that /r/Linux is pretty biased against Huawei though. I don’t really keep up with the politics of the Linux kernel so I’m not familiar with the Huawei situation, anyone know more about this?

    This is about work culture at Huawei, not China per se. China is not Huawei and Steve Bannon certainly doesn’t have any power over the contributors mentioned in that thread. Stop these unfounded conspiracy theories and start providing proof.
