This project is a technical reference and educational guide focused on the internal architecture of the Linux kernel. It serves as a low-level systems programming resource and documentation for operating system internals, detailing the implementation of core mechanisms within the kernel source code. The materials provide a detailed study of the Linux kernel, tracing behavior through actual C source and assembly. It specifically covers the progression from the bootloader and decompression to the final kernel entry point, alongside the management of hardware interrupts and symmetric multiproces
Provides a detailed study of how the Linux kernel handles booting, hardware interrupts, and symmetric multiprocessing.
CppGuide is a curated collection of educational resources and practical guides focused on C++ server development, Linux kernel internals, concurrent programming, network protocols, and security exploitation. It provides structured learning paths for backend developers, covering everything from interview preparation to building high-performance network servers and understanding operating system fundamentals. The guide distinguishes itself by offering in-depth, hands-on tutorials that walk through real-world implementations, including building a Redis-like server from scratch, designing custom
Describes the Linux kernel as a layered, responsive system covering memory, scheduling, and module isolation.
seL4 is a formally verified microkernel whose C implementation is backed by machine-checked mathematical proofs of correctness, confidentiality, integrity, and availability. It enforces strict isolation between processes through hardware-enforced address space separation and a capability-based access control system, where each process holds explicit rights only to the resources it has been granted. The kernel exposes hardware resources through a minimal API of system calls that manage threads, address spaces, and inter-process communication, with synchronous IPC supporting sender-identifying b
Provides a reference for every system call and interface the kernel exposes to user-space code.
embedded-notes ist eine Sammlung technischer Studienleitfäden und Entwicklungsnotizen mit Fokus auf Embedded Linux, Linux-Kernel-Internals und C-Programmierung. Sie dient als Referenz für die Entwicklung eingebetteter Systeme und als Vorbereitungsressource für technische Vorstellungsgespräche in diesem Bereich. Das Projekt bietet detaillierte Dokumentation zum Schreiben von Gerätetreibern, zur Verwaltung von virtuellem Speicher und zum Verständnis der Kernel-Internals. Es enthält zudem Leitfäden zu IoT-Netzwerkprotokollen wie MQTT und TCP/IP und skizziert die architektonischen Details von Chip-Architekturen und Hardware-Peripheriegeräten. Das Material deckt ein breites Spektrum der Systemprogrammierung ab, einschließlich manueller Speicherverwaltung, Prozesslebenszyklus-Management und der Implementierung von Konzepten für Echtzeitbetriebssysteme. Es enthält zudem Referenzen für Low-Level-Tools wie Cross-Kompilierung für ARM, Binäranalyse und Shell-Scripting für Build-Automatisierung.
