So you always wanted to write Linux kernel code? You don’t know how to start? Eudyptula-challenge closed for new participants? Here is great news: Andrzej invites you to his Kernel Rookie Guide hands-on course, now publicly available. The original training consisted of five parts that were conducted internally at Samsung R&D Institute Poland in 2012-2017. It was updated and digested to form a 4-hour Lab that will get you started smoothly. Andrzej will cover the kernel building process (including cross-compilation) and kernel code organization. He will also introduce kernel modules writing basics, fundamental kernel macros, most common synchronization mechanisms and point you to your next steps. Everything will be backed by hands-on exercises with ARM on QEMU. Some C knowledge (including pointers) and ability to use make are required. May the (kernel) source be with you!The attendees must bring their own laptops and they must meet the requirements set forth in slides 3 to 5. (Presentation is attached)
