Sound of Scheduling: Writing Fun Linux Schedulers in Java (gpn23)
from Chaos Computer Club - recent events feed · host Johannes Bechberger, David Kiefer
eBPF is transforming Linux system capabilities, enabling the extension of the kernel with custom process schedulers, firewalls, and more. Thanks to Java's recent native integration and a bit of compiler magic, we can now create these extensions directly in Java and use it to create Linux schedulers that create sound and schedulers that emit sound. After this talk you'll know how to create your own Linux scheduler, made your computer run faster by shouting at and played with the first ever Idle game that controls a scheduler.
