Overview
This course focuses on the basic elements of the Linux kernel, which allow programmers to build modules and device drivers. The students will gain a general understanding of the basic tools and interfaces, in order to successfully modify features and develop new aspects of the kernel. During the labs the students will build a full device driver including hardware access and interrupt handling
On Completion, Delegates will be able to
Explain the core elements of the Linux kernel
Be able to use the code for modifying and building a new modules
Build complex kernel modules
Debug a kernel module and a kernel oops
Explain the way the kernel manages memory
Explain the use of interrupt handlers
Understand the flow between user space and kernel space
Understand the network sub system and write network modules
Who Should Attend
Programmers and software designers who plan to use Linux kernel below the application level and to develop kernel space modules and device drivers
