  4.How To Be A Kernel Hacker

      1999/12/18 - 21 (4 posts): Kernel design

      Sherif Abou Seda asked how to get the "algorithms of the kernel
      design." Bill Wendling replied, "First, get a scalpal and a saw. Then,
      once you have the kernel hacker strapped down to the table and
      under anesthitized, you can remove his/her brain. Of course, you'll
      have to translate the wet-ware to some other form of your
      choosing..."

      Rik van Riel also replied to Sherif, saying, "Algorithms for designing
      the kernel (for doing the actual design and stuff) vary from developer
      to developer, but most seem to involve staring, deep thought and lots
      of caffeine. The "graduate student algorithm" should prove a
      sufficiently close approximation :)" and Riley Williams added:

            "The algorithms I know about seem to be along the
            lines of the following:

               1.Read a dozen or so pages of source code
                  looking for whatever bug one is after. Drink
                  several large mugs of coffee whilst doing so.
               2.Toss a coin. If heads, go to step 3; if tails, go to
                  step 4; if it lands on its edge, go to step 5.
               3.Note a bug one wasn't looking for, and fix it. Go
                  to step 1.
               4.Overlook the bug one was looking for. Go to
                  step 1.
               5.Have a brainwave, and go directly to the bug
                  and fix it, even though it was nowhere near the
                  code one was looking at. Go to step 1.

            Put any timescale you care to against that lot.
