Learn how to navigate process and kernel core memory dump space and Linux data structures to diagnose, troubleshoot, and debug complex software incidents. The training uses a unique and innovative pattern-oriented analysis approach to speed up the learning curve. It consists of practical step-by-step exercises using GDB and the Linux kernel crash utility. Additional topics include kernel structures navigation, practical scripting, kernel modules, device drivers, I/O, file systems, and security. The training extends the bestselling Accelerated Linux Core Dump Analysis and includes the crash course of essential C for Linux kernel and the relevant Unified Modeling Language tutorial. The course also includes machine learning and AI for aiding and automating core dump analysis.
To avoid repeating some topics and save time, the training offer includes the Accelerated Linux Core Dump Analysis book with a necessary x64 and ARM64 review. This offer is only valid for April 2025 training sessions.
Before the training, you get:
- Accelerated Linux Core Dump Analysis PDF book
- Access to Software Diagnostics Library
After the training, you also get:
- The PDF book version of the training: Advanced Linux Core Dump Analysis with Data Structures
- Personalized Certificate of Attendance with unique CID
- Answers to questions during training sessions
- Recording
Prerequisites:
Basic and intermediate level Linux core dump analysis: the ability to list tasks, threads, libraries, modules, apply symbols, walk through backtraces and raw stack data, diagnose patterns such as heap corruption, CPU spike, memory leaks, segmentation faults, wait chains, and deadlocks. If you are uncomfortable with prerequisites, then Accelerated Linux Core Dump Analysis training or the corresponding book is recommended before attending this training.
Audience:
Software technical support and escalation engineers, cloud engineers, DevOps and DevSecOps, system administrators, security researchers, reverse engineers, malware and memory forensics analysts, software developers, and quality assurance engineers.
