If you have been for (or against) Rust in the Linux kernel, get ready for a Linux kernel module written in… Scratch. That’s right. Scratch, the MIT-developed language with blocks popular for teaching ...
Bleeping Computer: LKRG: Linux to Get a Loadable Kernel Module for Runtime Integrity Checking
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 ...
LKRG: Linux to Get a Loadable Kernel Module for Runtime Integrity Checking
Source is a wonderful thing. Merged module source in the kernel tree is even better. Most of all, support for that source is what really counts. In today's explosion of Linux in the enterprise, the ...
Ars Technica: Building 3rd party linux kernel modules: changes with kernels after 4.9?
Blacklisting modules prevents them from being loaded and used, and it is sometimes an important step in keeping a system running properly. The Linux kernel is modular — composed of modules that work ...
Beginners Level Course: What is Linux? Linux is an operating system that evolved from a kernel created by Linus Torvalds when he was a student at the University of Helsinki. Generally, it is obvious to most people what Linux is. However, both for political and practical reasons, it needs to be...
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 ...
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 ...
