The Linux kernel is the core of the operating system, managing hardware resources and enabling communication between hardware and software. Loadable Kernel Modules (LKMs) allow you to extend or modify ...
Remote Debugging of Loadable Kernel Modules with kgdb: a Knowledge-based Article for Getting Started
As many kernel developers and hackers have known for years, loadable/unloadable kernel modules (like user-space applications) are almost never bug-free. With the continuing use and development of ...
Modern CPUs can run in two modes: kernel mode and user mode. When a CPU runs in kernel mode, an extended set of instructions is allowed, as is free access to anywhere in memory and device registers.
A Generic Kernel Image (GKI) for Android is a standardized Linux kernel created by Google to reduce device differences and make updates easier. It separates hardware-specific code into loadable ...
I did something recently I haven’t done in a long time: I recompiled the Linux kernel. There was a time when this was a common occurrence. You might want a feature that the default kernel didn’t ...
Security modules watch the rest of the Linux system for intruders, but if they’re dynamically loadable, qui custodiet ipsos custodes? The ever-contentious Linux Security Modules (LSM) API is being ...
Abstract: In current extensible monolithic operating systems, loadable kernel modules (LKM) have unrestricted access to all portions of kernel memory and I/O space. As a result, kernel-module ...
