Linux Kernel Module Cheat is an open-source educational project that provides practical examples for studying Linux kernel programming, kernel modules, and operating system internals. It includes reproducible development environments for building and debugging custom Linux kernels. The project uses QEMU and Buildroot to create minimal Linux systems that can run in virtual machines. Developers can explore kernel modules, system calls, device drivers, memory management, and process behavior through executable examples. Debugging workflows integrate GDB for examining kernel execution and investigating low-level problems. The repository also covers user-space programs, hardware emulation, and interactions between Linux and underlying system architecture. Automated build scripts simplify experimentation across different configurations. It is designed for developers learning systems programming through hands-on exercises.
