How to build an Ubuntu Linux kernel

The Linux kernel is just a program

Most books and courses introduce Linux through shell commands, leaving the kernel as a mysterious black box doing magic behind the scenes. In this post, we will run some experiments to demystify it: the Linux kernel is just a binary that you can build and run.

Building Linux kernel on macOS natively

From bootloader to kernel

If you've read my earlier posts about assembly language for Linux x86_64, you might see that I started to get interested in low-level programming. I've written a set of articles on assembly programming for x86_64 Linux and, in parallel, began exploring the Linux kernel source ...

Please don’t tell anyone: we aren’t just open sourcing all the models. We are doing the unspeakable: open sourcing all the gpu kernels too. Making them run on multivendor consumer hardware, and opening the door to folks who can beat our work.Plz keep it quiet, ok? 😉— Chris Lattner (@clattner_llvm) March 24, 2026

Why Your Open Source Project Is Not A Product - Linux.com

I’ve spent a good bit of time explaining the ins and outs of open source products: what they are, how to make money with them, and what they are not. Namely, products are products, no matter the source code license they are published under. But there’s a journey that a software project must undergo before […]

"Useful" is not sufficient

So Linus Torvalds, head of the Linux kernel development, put his foot down on the Linux Kernel development mailing list when someone was bringing up criticism of LLMs: “Linux is not one of those anti-AI projects, and if somebody has issueswith that, they can do the open-source thing and fork it. Or just walk away. […]
