Linux Disk Management: A Complete Process from Mounting to Daily Maintenance

Physical Device Recognition In Linux, everything is a file. When you connect a new disk to the system, the Linux kernel detects this device through the udev event mechanism: # View the disk devices recognized by the system $ lsblk $ ls -l /dev/sd* Disk devices are typically represented by paths such as /dev/sda, /dev/sdb, … Read more

Measuring the Precision of High-Precision Timers in Linux Driver Development

Introduction Today, we will evaluate the high-precision timers in the Linux kernel, while also conducting cross-testing using a Tektronix oscilloscope and a DS100 Mini digital oscilloscope. Due to project requirements for precise timing cycles, we need to assess its feasibility and verify whether the oscilloscope from Atomic Clock can support the embedded development process. Overview … Read more

Exploring Linux: The Secrets of File and Link Operations

File System 1. Experiment Objectives The file system (p583, programming problem) checks the relationship between files and inode on UNIX or Linux systems. On these systems, files are represented by inodes. In other words, an inode is a file (and vice versa). You can complete this exercise on the Linux virtual machine provided in this … Read more
