Create self-service prep docs

nukemberg opened this issue · 0 comments

Create prep docs for people to read as a replacement for the prep talk. The docs should include:

  • outline: list of subjects and required knowledge
  • relevant links
  • "further reading" list
  • intro doc for relevant subjects

topics that needs to be covered in intro docs:

  • what is a "linux container" made of
  • glibc, userspace, kernelspace
  • processes from the kernel PoV
  • cgroups
  • namespaces
  • CoW storage (high level)
  • chroot/pivot_root
  • mounts
  • users
  • basic memory management (rlimit, oom killer, memory cgroup)

i suggest putting the docs as markdown in a "prep-docs" directory so people can consume directly from the repo
