Q: Developing your own Linux command

An Operating System performs a myriad of tasks which are critical to the proper functioning of a computer system. Along with its rich collection of terminal commands, Linux adopts an $$everything is a file$$ and sees all resources $($e$.$g$.,$ files, network sockets, executables, devices, etc$)$ as files.

The goal of this component is threefold:

$$ Analyse the behaviours of three Linux commands $($cp$,$ remove and cat$)$;

$$ Select any ONE command from the commands analysed;

$$ Implement your OWN version of your chosen command.

The analysis of the Linux commands will entail the following:

$$ Using tools such as ptrace to $$break down$$ each command behaviour;

$$ Source code analysis on the Linux development GitHub repository;

$$ Identifying how fundamental OS concepts $($e$.$g$.,$ concurrency, memory management, etc$)$ are implemented.
