Host
Simple things that can be demonstrated by inserting a module into the currently running host. Tested on Ubuntu 16.04.
Rationale
This method easier to setup, but it is not recommended for development, as:
- it may break your system
- you can't control which kernel version to use
Use VMs instead.
Usage
We only use it for super simple examples.
Build, insert and remove a hello world module:
make
sudo insmod hello.ko
# Our module should be there.
sudo lsmod | grep hello
# Last message should be: init_module
dmest -T
sudo rmmod hello
# Last message should be: cleanup_module
dmest -T
