    SOFTWARE—PRACTICE AND EXPERIENCE Softw. Pract. Exper. 2010; 00:1–7 Prepared using speauth.cls [Version: 2002/09/23 v2.2] Communicating between the kernel and user-space in Linux using Netlink sockets Pablo Neira Ayuso∗,∗1, Rafael M. Gasca1 and Laurent Lefevre2 1 QUIVIR Research Group, Departament of Computer Languages and Systems, University of Seville, Spain. 2 RESO/LIP team, INRIA, University of Lyon, France. SUMMARY When developing Linux kernel features, it is a good practise to expose the necessary details to user-space to enable extensibility. This allows the development of new features and sophisticated configurations from user-space. Commonly, software developers have to face the task of looking for a good way to communicate between kernel and user-space in Linux. This tutorial introduces you to Netlink sockets, a flexible and extensible messaging system that provides communication between kernel and user-space. In this tutorial, we provide fundamental guidelines for practitioners who wish to develop Netlink-based interfaces. key words: kernel interfaces, netlink, linux 1. INTRODUCTION Portable open-source operating systems like Linux [1] provide a good environment to develop applications for the real-world since they can be used in very different platforms: from very small embedded devices, like smartphones and PDAs, to standalone computers and large scale clusters. Moreover, the availability of the source code also allows its study and modification, this renders Linux useful for both the industry and the academia. The core of Linux, like many modern operating systems, follows a monolithic † design for performance reasons. The main bricks that compose the operating system are implemented ∗Correspondence to: Pablo Neira Ayuso, ETS Ingenieria Informatica, Department of Computer Languages and Systems.

  • Monitoring File Events
    MONITORING FILE EVENTS Some applications need to be able to monitor files or directories in order to deter- mine whether events have occurred for the monitored objects. For example, a graphical file manager needs to be able to determine when files are added or removed from the directory that is currently being displayed, or a daemon may want to monitor its configuration file in order to know if the file has been changed. Starting with kernel 2.6.13, Linux provides the inotify mechanism, which allows an application to monitor file events. This chapter describes the use of inotify. The inotify mechanism replaces an older mechanism, dnotify, which provided a subset of the functionality of inotify. We describe dnotify briefly at the end of this chapter, focusing on why inotify is better. The inotify and dnotify mechanisms are Linux-specific. (A few other systems provide similar mechanisms. For example, the BSDs provide the kqueue API.) A few libraries provide an API that is more abstract and portable than inotify and dnotify. The use of these libraries may be preferable for some applications. Some of these libraries employ inotify or dnotify, on systems where they are available. Two such libraries are FAM (File Alteration Monitor, http:// oss.sgi.com/projects/fam/) and Gamin (http://www.gnome.org/~veillard/gamin/). 19.1 Overview The key steps in the use of the inotify API are as follows: 1. The application uses inotify_init() to create an inotify instance. This system call returns a file descriptor that is used to refer to the inotify instance in later operations.

  • Linux Kernel 8.1 Introduction
    Page 1 of 6 Linux Kernel 8.1 Introduction: The Linux kernel is a Unix-like operating system kernel used by a variety of operating systems based on it, which are usually in the form of Linux distributions. The Linux kernel is a prominent example of free and open source software. The Linux kernel is released under the GNU General Public License version 2 (GPLv2) (plus some firmware images with various non-free licenses), and is developed by contributors worldwide. Day-to-day development discussions take place on the Linux kernel mailing list. The Linux kernel was initially conceived and created in 1991 by Finnish computer science student Linus Torvalds. Linux rapidly accumulated developers and users who adapted code from other free software projects for use with the new operating system. The Linux kernel has received contributions from thousands of programmers. 8.2 History: History In April 1991, Linus Torvalds, a 21-year-old student at the University of Helsinki, Finland started working on some simple ideas for an operating system. He started with a task switcher in Intel 80386 assembly language and a terminal driver. On 25 August 1991, Torvalds posted the following to comp.os.minix, a newsgroup on Usenet: I'm doing a (free) operating system (just a hobby, won't be big and professional like gnu) for 386(486) AT clones. This has been brewing since April, and is starting to get ready. I'd like any feedback on things people like/dislike in minix, as my OS resembles it somewhat (same physical layout of the file-system (due to practical reasons) among other things).
