Kernel Terminology
• Kernel
– A binary file which is created as a result of compiling the
kernel sources.
• Kernel sources
– large collection of text files mostly written in the C
programming language.
• Vendor kernel
– A kernel that has been patched by a vendor (i.e. Red Hat or
Debian).
• Patch
– A set of instructions to modify a file or set of files from an
old version to a new one.

Kernel Components
• Different types of kernel images
– monolithic kernel
• contains all the driver code
• does not need the assistance of modules
– kernel image is compressed to save space
• make zImage
• make bzImage

Kernel Components
• Identifying stable and development kernels
– Kernel version are made by three basic components:
• The major number
• The minor number
• The micro number (patch number)
– There is the fourth number
• Sometimes applied after a dash is generally the patch level , applied
by kernel maintainers
– The minor number is even = stable version
– The minor number is odd = development version.
Ex : 2 . 4 . 18 - 10

Kernel Modules
• insmod
– Install & binding a module to kernel.You can customize
module loadtime parameters in /etc/modules.conf or
/etc/conf.modules
• rmmod
– Unload a module from kernel
• modinfo
– Details about a module’s description
• modprobe
– Load a set of modules either a single module a stack of
dependent modules or all modules that are marked with a
specified tag
( Package : modutils )

recompiled and compile them.
– Executes commands in Makefile (sometime named makefile)
to update programs or module components
• C/gcc :
– C compiler integrated into gcc
• binutils:
– a collection of binary utilities
• gas(assembler), ld(likner),nm, ranlib, objdump,

The Source Tree
• Kernel source released as a zipped tar file
Ex: linux-2.4.29.tar.bz2
• NEVER unpack your kernel sources directly into
/usr/src/linux
# tar xjvf linux-2.4.29.tar.bz2 –C /usr/src/

The Source Tree
• Subdirectories in the source tree :
/usr/src/linux/
• This is the structure that most kernel sources will follow.
ipc
kernel
lib
mm
net
scripts
arch
crypto
Documentation
drivers
fs
include

Creating a .config file
• Create new .config file
– make config or
– make menuconfig or
– make xconfig
• Create from exists .config file
– Copy exists .config file to /usr/src/linux/
– make oldconfig or
– make menuconfig with load exists config file.
• The results of all of these choices are stored in:
/usr/src/linux/.config

Compiling the Kernel
make dep
– Source files are examined for dependencies
– The resulting table is stored in .depend file.
– The .depend files are automatically included in make.
• make clean
– Removes old output files that may exist from previous
kernel builds.
• make bzImage and make zImage
– Our ultimate goal is a bootable kernel image file.

Compiling the Kernel (cont.)
• make modules
– Device drivers and other items that were configured as
modules are compiled.
• make modules_install
– All of the modules compiled are installed under
/lib/modules/kernel-version

The mkinitrd command
• Adds the capability to load a RAM disk by the boot
loader.
• Mainly designed system startup to occur in two
phases:
– the kernel comes up with a minimum set of compiled-in
drivers
– additional modules are loaded from initrd
• mkinitrd /boot/initrd-2.4.29.img 2.4.29

Patching a Kernel
• A patch file is editing instructions to change one set of
files into new version of the files
Ex: patch-2.4.29.bz2
• Steps to patch :
# ln –s /usr/src/linux-2.4.29 /usr/src/linux
# cp patch-2.4.29.bz2 /usr/src/linux
# cd /usr/src/linux
# bzcat patch-2.4.29.bz2 | patch –p1

Patching a Kernel
• Testing the Patch only, before applying
patch –p1 -–dry-run < patchfile
• Keep original files
patch –b –p1 < patchfile
• Keep original files to backup-directory
patch –B backup-dir –p1 < patchfile

Remove patch from Kernel
• A kernel patch can be removed from a kernel:
– removing it from the production kernel source tree
– compiling a new kernel.
• Try to apply the patch a second time for remove
# bzcat patch-2.4.29.bz2 | patch –p1
• Find any patch files failed:
find . -name '*.rej'

kmod versus kerneld
• kmod and kerneld make dynamic loading of kernel-modules.
• use modprobe to manage dependencies and dynamic loading of modules
• kerneld is a daemon
• kmod is a thread in the kernel itself.
• kerneld is done through System V IPC.
• kmod operates directly from the kernel
• kmod replaces kerneld as of Linux kernel 2.2.x.
# cat .config | grep -i kmod
CONFIG_KMOD=y

The main PC bus-systems
• ISA
– 16 or 8bit, cheap, slow (usually 8MHz), standard, many cards available,
but not many new motherboards are shipped with ISA anymore;
• EISA
– 32bit, expensive, fast, few cards available, but almost obsolete.
• MCA
– 32 or 16bit ex-IBM-proprietary, fast, obsolete/rare.
• VESA-Local-Bus
– 32bit, based on 486 architecture, cheap, fast, many cards available,
obsolete.
• PCI-Local-Bus
– 32bit (64 bit coming), cheap, fast, many cards available, the de facto
standard

Serial devices
• Configuring serial devices
setserial device [parameters]
where:
– port [portnumber]: Specify the I/O port address, e.g. 0x2f8
– irq [irqnum]: specify which IRQ line the serial device is using
– uart [type]: specify the UART type, e.g. 16550, 16450 or none
– autoirq: specify that the kernel should try to figure out the IRQ itself
– skip_test: specify that the kernel should skip to test the UART type
– autoconfig: the kernel automatically determine the UART type.

Teminal connection
• Configure your inittab to support serial console logins
– Modify /etc/inittab, add line
# Run agetty on COM1/ttyS0 and COM2/ttyS1
s0:2345:respawn:/sbin/agetty -L -f /etc/issueserial 9600 ttyS0 vt100
Where:
-L : force line to be local line with no need for detect (do not have modem)
-f : alternative /etc/issue file. This is what a user sees at the login prompt.
-i : do not display any messages at the login prompt.
9600 : serial line rate in bps.
ttyS0 : this is the serial port identifier.
vt100 : is the terminal emulation.
