What is the Kernel Linux?

 

Hello to everyone!
Do you know what Kernel Linux and its features is? If you don't know, learn now!
 
The Linux kernel is the primary component of a Linux operating system (OS) and is the central interface between a computer's hardware and its processes. It communicates between the 2, managing resources as efficiently as possible.

The kernel has 4 jobs:

Memory Management - Control how much memory is used to store what and where

Process Management - Determine which processes can use the central processing unit (CPU), when and for how long

Device drivers - act as mediators/interpreters between hardware and processes

System Calls and Security - Receiving Process Service Requests

The Linux kernel is distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License (GPL) - this means that it is distributed without charge. In addition, you can change the code and distribute it freely.

Has preemption (preemptive) - the execution of a task stops after a while, and another task gains the right to use the processor. This prevents a task from monopolizing the processor for a long time.

Hi bro's! This space will be intended for tutors, technological experiences and to train my English! Currently my focus is on GNU/Linux distributions, so the primary focus will be on these technologies.

Restrict limit of use of SWAP memory.

Image
 Hi guys, it's my first post and we're going to talk about SWAP. 1.What is SWAP MEMORY? Memoria Swap is a virtual memory that helps the system unburden and run applications without locking. It basically works as an extension of RAM, which is stored on the disk. 2. Is it interesting that the computer always uses virtual memory (SWAP)? NO! The files is written to a storage device, and it is much slower than memory.  3.What to do? On GNU/Linux systems you can create swap partitions of the desired size and can manipulate your access if you have too much RAM memory and don't often need virtual allocation.  Go to the file /etc/sysctl.conf $ sudo nano /etc/sysctl.conf In the last line, type: # # Reduces swap usage vm.swappiness=10 # Improves cache management vm.vfs_cache_pressure=50 Save with a Ctrl + O and exit with a Ctrl + X; restart your PC and ready.  SWAP limit is set. Explaining: vm.swappiness=10 This value comes as standard 60, that is, when your memory reaches 60% of use
