Hi Abhijit Paul, But I don't know what to learn. I know the C/C++ programming language. C and C++ are two different languages that are (normally) used very differently. So, you might want to start with getting more familiar with how code in a C project like Linux is written. In general, I believe that the only way to learn software development is to find yourself a project/problem you would like to work on/solve. If you cannot find anything within the Linux project, maybe also consider a user space application that is written in C, there are many of those out there.
I would say it depends on what you plan to do. E.g. to get started with driver development, I don't think you need to know in depth how an operating system/kernel works. But, of course you should be a proficient GNU/Linux user, or you won't get very far. Good look! Cheers, Ezra. |
