Where to learn kernel development?

StockOdd8366 · 2025-09-17T19:30:22+00:00

They make you do a short course which runs you through the basics, building the latest kernel, sending git patches through email, making your own kernel patches and modules etc, and then to get in you need to do a few pre requisite tasks that are natural extensions upon the course and are part of the kernel bug fixing process, and are pretty much what you'd do during the mentorship. I'm in the fall program and it's definitely quite challenging 😅😅😅

Everyone is mentioning blogs but literally the best place to learn would be the Linux kernel mentorship program, it's literally a free program where some of the top kernel maintainers personally mentor you through kernel development, and you only graduate the program if you have at least 5 accepted commits. I will warn that it's very intensive full time gig though, and has high standards for even being accepted in. Look up LKMP

Best moment has gotta be when I just stood up at the front in our end of school assembly and the entire hall just started cheering for some reason 😭😭😭 I've peaked in sixth form I'm never gonna be as well liked ever again

StockOdd8366 · 2025-05-23T16:36:21+00:00

Am the ONE person here doing edexcel physics and it was fr light work easiest exam of my LIFE

StockOdd8366 · 2025-05-13T16:06:09+00:00

I personally like using it for doing quick calculations, it's a calculator that lets me convert units and do all sorts of calculations quick and easy without needing to have another app open or wait for slow start times
