At the 2001 Linux Kernel Summit, NSA developers presented their work on Security-Enhanced Linux (SELinux) and emphasized the need for enhanced security support in the main Linux kernel. In the ensuing ...

This project demonstrates system-level engineering skills by implementing a loadable kernel module (LKM) that creates a basic character device interface. The device supports read/write operations from ...

One amazing thing about Linux is that the same code base is used for a different range of computing systems, from supercomputers to very tiny embedded devices. If you stop for a second and think about ...

Kernel modules are chunks of code that are loaded and unloaded into the kernel as needed, thus extending the functionality of the kernel without requiring a reboot. In fact, unless users inquire about ...

Members of the open source community are working on a new security-focused project for the Linux kernel. Named Linux Kernel Runtime Guard (LKRG), this is a loadable kernel module that will perform ...

This course provides an introduction to Kernel programming for the Linux operating system, and the development of Linux kernel drivers for Embedded devices. The Yocto build system is introduced, which ...
