My effort to learn Linux kernel development
Hi All, I am just here to inform that I am trying to learn Linux kernel development.

you have to understand more from a design perspective, also have to understand what problem is kernel addressing and its design. Dwelling into code directly won't help, you may lose interest after some time. It's good to start with the process. memory and file management. One more thing, you have to put it in practise otherwise, you will soon forget what you learnt. Krishna. On Wed, Jul 21, 2021 at 7:32 PM Amit Kumar <free.amit.kumar@gmail.com> wrote:

I normally learn the kernel on weekends. Reading R. Love and practicing by coding what you learn is the best way. Also, trying to submit simple patches on some free time is a good way , meeting Greg Kroah and Shuan, they are fantastic people to learn from.

as the tech editor of the r. love kernel book, i can safely say that there are no really current kernel books out there anymore -- the best docs are the in-kernel ones. also, if you want to get started mucking with the kernel and submitting patches, consider improving the documentation -- there is a lot of documentation that is at least a little out of date and could use all the help it can get, and that's an easy and safe way to get started getting your name into the kernel git log. rday

I sent my solo patch back in 2017. But this time I am expecting to send a never-ending stream of patches.

That is not how any of this works, sorry. I am already mentoring many people through the LF mentorship program, feel free to sign up for the next round of interns through that project if you are interested. good luck! greg k-h

i dropped gregkh from this response as i don't think he's interested in any followup, so here's my thoughts. i checked out a couple articles at your blog and i'm not trying to be harsh, but there's very little useful content there. aside from the numerous spelling mistakes, the articles are extremely superficial and, in many cases, are imprecise to the point where it's not clear what you're even trying to say. here's an example: "Kernel is like the kernel of a nut. It is a bit difficult for an application program to interact with the kernel directly i.e. it will be a time consuming task to write an application program with the help of the kernel only." i have no idea what that means, or what point you're trying to get across, and most of the articles there are like that. if you want to keep writing, that's great, do whatever you enjoy, but you're being wildly optimistic if you want to describe your blog as a "gateway to linux kernel development." if i were you, i would do less writing, and way more reading. again, i'm not trying to discourage you, but you really need to set your expectations appropriately. rday

Thanks for your time and feedback. You are right. Except for the last two articles, all other articles were written with the intention to introduce a layman to digital devices. I have just resumed blogging. I will surely improve my articles according to your feedback. I am enthusiastic about bringing more and more developers to the Linux community. I wish your support in the future also. Regards, Amit Kumar

Isn't the LDD 3E by Rubini not a good book ? Has it become outdated with respect to the current kernel version ??

In my opinion, it's an excellent book. I'd imagine it's pretty rare for a book covering the internals of a software project to *not* become quickly outdated. However, that's not necessarily a bad thing, so don't write it off just yet. Depending on your learning style, you might find it beneficial to follow along anyway and try to reconcile the differences between the book and the state of today's Linux source code. Connor

there's not much financial incentive to write kernel books anymore; the code base changes so relentlessly that any book is pretty much out of date by the time it hits the shelves, and few authors want to invest months of their life for that. and what's the point of having a small number of authors working on a book, when the entire linux community is co-operating to improve the inline docs, anyway? rday p.s. it also occurs that the kernel is so vast that there's no way you could do justice to it in a single book. there might (i emphasize *might*) be some value in writing a comprehensive book on some single kernel subsystem, but even that would be obviated by decent inline docs.

Chiming in to add that I don't normally click on random proffered URLs because I've fallen into so many (time wasting) traps over the years.. BUT I did click on this one since it's Youtube.. It's Linux Foundation, y'all, so it's very worth a peek. This is the description when you get there: "Tutorial: Building the Simplest Possible Linux System - Rob Landley, se-instruments.com This tutorial walks you through building and booting the simplest possible Linux system, first under QEMU and then on real hardware. We cover kernel configuration and building, native vs cross compiling, initramfs creation (and other root filesystem options), installing and booting, the init process and system bringup, running an app, adding an example server (sshd), and finally we'll add a native toolchain to compile "hello world" on the target.

Thanks for that share, Aruna. I'll be playing over there after Gibson's Night of 100 Guitars is done (again), lol! Cindy :) -- * runs with birdseed *

Hello Sue and everybody else, Useful to know : https://linuxhint.com/linux-kernel-tutorial-beginners/ Very useful to know: https://github.com/0xAX/linux-insides/blob/master/Booting/linux-bootstrap-1.... I wish 'I' found this years ago when I first started https://github.com/0xAX/linux-insides/blob/master/SUMMARY.md Reference: https://0xax.gitbooks.io/linux-insides/content/ And if you really, really want the book: https://static.lwn.net/images/pdf/LDD3/ch01.pdf Even if you never click any of those links, you really really want to click the one that says 'very useful to know' This is the 'diff' ( pun intended ) between theory and 'lived experience' :-) And Amit just follow your heart my friend. If you want to document 'your' experiences go ahead. Peer review is important but should not dictate what 'you' include in 'your website' when it comes to what 'you' want to do as long as it is not an actual patch in the kernel then peer review becomes sadly but out of necessity "zero tolerance" for the greater good. ( I think.. ) And please read this Amit it will help you see things from a entirely different perspective an dmind-set: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tanenbaum%E2%80%93Torvalds_debate Peace to ye all - Aruna
