What Will I Learn?
This Systems Programming Course provides practical, focused training in POSIX C system calls, safe file I/O, and robust CLI design. You will learn to measure throughput, handle partial reads and writes, manage errors with errno, and tune performance. The course also covers high-resolution timing, /proc and /sys parsing, debugging with Valgrind and strace, and deploying to embedded Linux boards quickly and reliably.
Elevify Advantages
Develop Skills
- Master POSIX file I/O: write safe, fast, low-level C file operations.
- Build robust CLIs: parse args, validate input, and handle signals cleanly.
- Debug C like a pro: use Valgrind, AddressSanitizer, strace, and ltrace.
- Optimise for embedded Linux: tune memory, binary size, and filesystem use.
- Measure performance precisely: use POSIX clocks and nanosecond timing.
