Udemy – Linux Kernel Filesystem Development 2024-3

Linux Kernel Filesystem Development course. In this course, how to develop Linux kernel file system will be taught from scratch. You will learn everything from building kernel commands and modules, loading modules, mounting the file system, disassembling and removing modules. All basic file/filesystem operations are supported, with one module per operation. From file, directory, symbolic link, and hard link creation to reading and writing files to the details of file system/kernel interactions, you’ll learn everything in this course. There is also a chapter dedicated to how to recover deleted files, which also addresses possible security issues. Using the kernel module, the mkfs and fsdb commands, the SPFS file system is only 2300 lines of code. The source code is available online and is updated every year for new versions of Ubuntu Linux. You will learn the strategy to follow when creating a new file system. What operations should be done first and which operations can wait until later. You will also learn how to debug the file system using a number of techniques from simply using printk to source level debugging using gdb/KGDB. The file system is very simple and contains intentional errors that help to understand why the order of operations is important in file system design.

What you will learn in Linux Kernel Filesystem Development course:

• Understanding the flow from Linux user processes to the kernel VFS layer and the interaction between the kernel and the file system
• How to build a loadable kernel module and support commands (mkfs & fsdb) and how to create additional files on disk at mkfs time
• Develop a disk-based file system from scratch by understanding the process to follow and the order in which operations should be performed
• You’ll cover how to mount/unmount the file system, as well as all file and directory operations on directories, regular files, hard links, and symbolic links.
• Understand kernel debugging techniques from simple use of printk calls to source level debugging with gdb/KGDB

This course is suitable for people who:

• Experienced developers who want to explore Linux kernel development, especially in the area of ​​file systems.
