RHD236 - RED HAT LINUX KERNEL INTERNALS
RHD236 Red Hat Linux Kernel Internals is an intensive hands-on course designed to provide a detailed examination of the Linux kernel architecture, including process scheduling, memory management, filesystems, and driving peripheral devices. RHD236 is taught in a classroom with computers equipped with the current Linux distribution. This 5-day course provides hands-on training, concepts and demonstrations, with emphasis on realistic labs and programming exercises.
Upon completing the class, students should feel comfortable modifying the Linux kernel to fit the needs of their hardware or applications and developing device drivers. They will also have the tools necessary to port existing applications and device drivers to Linux, primarily from UNIX-like systems.
This class is intended for experienced developers who want to gain a thorough understanding of the Linux architecture, including the newest kernels.
