Syllabus | |
https://foad.ensicaen.fr/course/view.php?id=696 During main Courses (demonstrations on x86/x64 architectures and UNIX-like GNULinux system) : - Functionning of a CPU (Central Processing Unit) and domain introduction - Heterogeneity of processors architectures - UNIX-like system introduction - Compiling and linking workflow - Binary file and ELF format - Functionning of a processor cache - Functionning of pagination unit (PMMU or Paged Memory Management Unit) During Practical Works (analysis only, on x86/x64 architectures and UNIX-like GNULinux system with GCC) : - Compiling and linking - Automatic allocation and stack management - Static allocation and ELF file - Dynamic allocation and heap management - Hardware exception and UNIX signal - Partitions table and files systems |
|
Practical work (TD or TP) | |
No practicals works application. Teaching frame only in analysis of elementaries C files ! Hadrware and software tools : - x86/x64 computer (Intel GPP and chipset) - UNIX-like GNULinux Operating System (ubuntu) - GCC toolchain and UNIX shell |
