Linux is the most widespread operating system, globally – but how is it built? Few people are better to answer this than Greg Kroah-Hartman (Greg K-H): Greg has been a Linux kernel maintainer for 25 years, and one of the 3 Linux Kernel Foundation Fellows (the other two are Linus Torvalds and Shuah Khan). Greg manages the Linux kernel’s stable releases, and is a maintainer of multiple kernel subsystems. We cover the inner workings of Linux kernel development, exploring everything from how changes get implemented to why its community-driven approach produces such reliable software. Greg shares insights about the kernel's unique trust model and makes a case for why engineers should contribute to open-source projects.

Check out all of our current sponsor and their offerings: ---- One of the most surprising things I learned about Linux: although 4,000 developers contribute to the project from 500 companies per year, and has around 800 kernel maintainers, the project is run with email, git... and that's about it! No dedicated project managers, no regular meetings across the group. It's a truly fascinating and unique model (and only applies to the Linux kernel project: not to Linux distributions.) We go into more detail about this topic with Greg in the podcast as well.
