This document provides an overview of Linux kernel concepts, including key components like the scheduler and memory manager. It discusses how the kernel is modular and allows functional blocks to be added or removed via modules. It also covers commands like lsmod, rmmod, insmod, and modprobe for working with kernel modules, as well as kernel boot and runtime parameters that can be configured using sysctl.

Major components: •Scheduler •Memory manager •Device drivers •Filesystems •Networking Kernel Linux kernel is modular allowing functional blocks of software to be added or removed on fly via modules mechanism. Modules encompass functions such as: Device drivers Kernel features - firewalls, RAID, LVM Filesystems
